Shockey practices for second straight day

Saints tight end Jeremy Shockey practiced on Tuesday - at least the portion of the workout that was open to the media - the first time during training camp that he has been a participant on back-to-back days.

Aside from a visible lack of endurance, Shockey, who has seen his on-field practice time severely curtailed by his continued recovery from knee and foot injuries he sustained last year when he was with the New York Giants, seemed to be moving around unencumbered.

Shockey, who was obtained in a trade with the Giants just prior to the beginning of training camp, was expected to take part in his first game action Saturday night when the Saints travel to meet the Cincinnati Bengals, Coach Sean Payton said on Monday.
