Only two players on the injured reserve list who are designated to return can be brought back during the season, but only after eight weeks.
Payton said he will likely use two quarterbacks — Teddy Bridgewater and Taysom Hill — in Sunday’s game against Seattle. It was Bridgewater who replaced Brees, 40, three days ago when the Saints lost to the Rams.

The Saints are 1-1 this season. Brees has been the team’s starting quarterback since 2006 and led them to their only Super Bowl title in 2010.
