Thu Oct 17 20:40:00 UTC 2024: ## Saints Suffer Major Blow as Shaheed’s Season Ends Due to Knee Injury

**New Orleans, LA** – The New Orleans Saints are facing a major setback as wide receiver Rashid Shaheed underwent surgery on his meniscus on Thursday, ending his season. The team placed him on injured reserve, meaning he will miss at least four games.

The news comes just hours before the Saints’ Thursday night game against the Denver Broncos. The Saints are already without star wide receiver Chris Olave, who sustained a concussion during their Week 6 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

The injury to Shaheed, who had been a key contributor for the Saints this season, adds further pressure on the team’s already depleted receiving corps.
