The New Orleans Saints placed defensive lineman Tony McDaniel on injured reserved, a source told NOLA.com | The Times-Picayune's Herbie Teope.
McDaniel becomes the 20th player the Saints have placed on injured reserve this season following guard Andrus Peat's addition to the list earlier Wednesday.
McDaniel had three tackles in the Saints' regular season finale, a 31-24 loss to Tampa Bay, and he played in 12 defensive snaps in New Orleans' Wild card win against the Carolina Panthers.
He was with the Saints in the preseason and appeared in five regular season games with the San Francisco 49ers.
