The New Orleans Saints placed wide receiver Ted Ginn Jr. on injured reserve, according to multiple reports Thursday.

The move created a roster spot for offensive lineman Michael Ola, whom the team reportedly re-signed.

Ginn, 33, did not practice Wednesday because of a knee injury that has plagued him since the season opener. New Orleans' 43-19 win over the Washington Redskins in Week 5 was the first contest he missed.

On the season, Ginn has 12 catches for 135 yards and two touchdowns. It is unclear if he's a candidate to return this season.

Ola, 30, is back with the Saints after serving as a backup for the team in Week 1. Left tackle Terron Armstead (knee) and left guard Andrus Peat (head) are both banged up and were limited in practice Wednesday.
