On Wednesday, New Orleans Saints safety Tyrann Mathieu reported for his first day of training camp practice after being excused to tend to a personal family matter. As concerns grew over the last few days about when Mathieu would be back, Saints Head Coach Dennis Allen repeatedly reassured everyone that the team was being supportive and patient while awaiting his return.

On his first day back, Mathieu did not participate in 7-on-7’s or in full team drills, but Allen said it will not take the veteran safety long to get back into the swing of things.
