Ridgeway (pectoral) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.
ANALYSIS
Ridgeway opened the season on injured reserve due to a pectoral injury he suffered during training camp in mid-August. His 21-day practice window opened Wednesday, and while he was able to practice in full Thursday, that doesn't guarantee that he'll be activated from IR ahead of the Saints' home clash against the Giants on Sunday.
