New Orleans Saints SS Kenny Vaccaro said he will play in the Week 11 game Thursday, Nov. 17, versus the Carolina Panthers. The team is still awaiting final word on Vaccaro's pending suspension, but the delay will help him remain in the lineup another week. The 25-year-old is facing a four-game suspension for testing positive for Adderall, which is one of the banned performance-enhancing drugs. Vaccaro is waiting for results of a second sample that would uphold or reverse the suspension.

New Orleans Saints SS Kenny Vaccaro was returned to the slot in nickel packages in Week 15 against the Chicago Bears, and he thrived during the team's impressive win. He played 70% of the defensive snaps in the game and also played on all four special teams for the first time in his career. "My favorite thing to do is, 'You guard him, lock him down.' Or, 'You shoot that gap,'" Vaccaro said. "That's what I'm really good at. You tell me to lock somebody down, they ain't catching the ball." CB Terrence Frederick made his starting debut in the game, and CB Patrick Robinson moved to dime packages with CB Corey White inactive.
