NEW ORLEANS — The Saints have placed first-year receiver Rod Harper on injured reserve with a stress fracture in his left foot.

The move made room on the roster to bring back rookie quarterback Chase Daniel, the former Missouri standout who New Orleans waived on Monday.
Harper returned two punts for touchdowns in the preseason. But he was stuck behind a deep group of receivers and has not been active for a regular-season game.
The Saints (4-0) host the New York Giants (5-0) on Sunday.
