Saints quarterback Andy Dalton suffered a back injury during Sunday's loss to the Bengals in New Orleans, the team indicated Monday in its estimated practice report.
Dalton, the Bengals' starting quarterback from 2011 to 2019, was listed as a limited participant in the Saints' practice estimation Monday. Starter Jameis Winston, who has back and ankle injuries, also was listed as limited.
Both Dalton and Winston were listed as limited participants on Tuesday's injury report.
The Saints' next game is Thursday night against the Arizona Cardinals.
Dalton completed 17 of his 32 attempts for 162 yards and one touchdown against his former team. It was his third game against the Bengals for a third different team in three seasons.
In March, Dalton, who turns 35 later this month, signed a one-year deal with New Orleans.
In the Chicago Bears' win against the Bengals last season, Dalton completed 9-of-11 attempts for 56 yards with a touchdown before leaving the game during the second quarter with a bone bruise.
Dalton completed 16-of-23 for 185 passing yards and two touchdowns as the Dallas Cowboys routed the Bengals, 30-7, in Dec. 2020.
Dalton is second behind Ken Anderson among Cincinnati's all-time leaders in passing yardage.
