Injured New Orleans Saints cornerback Delvin Breaux suffered a setback in practice, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

Breaux was placed on the injured reserve in early September with a fractured fibula, but he was nearing a return to play and was eligible to be activated at any point.

The latest injury comes with a 3-6 week timeline, according to Rapoport, putting his return for the regular season in jeopardy.

The Saints will continue to rely on starting cornerbacks Ken Crawley and Marshon Lattimore.
