Saints corner Randall Gay out for game vs. Falcons after suffering blow to the head

Saints CB Gay out for Sunday’s game vs Falcons

METAIRIE, La. — New Orleans Saints cornerback Randall Gay will miss Sunday’s game against the Atlanta Falcons.

Coach Sean Payton says Gay, who left the Saints’ victory at San Francisco on Monday night after taking a blow to the head, had an independent medical examination on Thursday and got another on Friday.

Payton says Gay was not cleared and will undergo the same procedure next week.

Tight end Jeremy Shockey bruised his quad on Thursday and did not practice, but Payton said he is listed as probable for Sunday’s game.
