New Orleans Saints QB Jameis Winston says he plans to play Sunday after getting day off in London to rest injuries

New Orleans Saints quarterback Jameis Winston said he intends to start Sunday's game against the Minnesota Vikings in London.

"That's my plan," he said.

Winston said the team held him out of practice at the London Irish Facility on Wednesday but he'll be back for Thursday's practice. He had a "did not practice" designation on Wednesday after being listed as limited in Week 2 and Week 3 due to back and ankle injuries.

"Really it's more just trying to rest and trying to make sure it's healthy," Saints coach Dennis Allen told reporters after practice.
