The New Orleans Saints reportedly placed fullback John Kuhn on injured reserve Thursday after he suffered a "potentially serious" biceps injury during a recent practice, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
In a corresponding move, Rapoport also reported the Saints activated wide receiver Willie Snead.
Snead missed the first three weeks of the regular season while serving a suspension for violating the league's personal conduct policy.
Kuhn only registered one carry for two yards before he hit the shelf, but he offered true value as a lead blocker for Mark Ingram, Adrian Peterson and the rest of New Orleans' running backs.
