The first inactive report of the 2021 NFL season is out for the Saints, as we're not far off from them taking on the Packers in America's Game of the Week on FOX. Here's a look at the Week 1 inactive report for New Orleans.

QB Ian Book
LB Chase Hansen
FB Adam Prentice
DB Jordan Miller
DE Payton Turner

The Saints had placed Tre'Quan Smith and Ken Crawley on injured reserve with hamstring injuries, so they are out for the first several games. They elevated kicker Aldrick Rosas and safety Jeff Heath from the practice squad while adding defensive tackle Albert Huggins and defensive back Jordan Miller to the active roster.

Marshon Lattimore was downgraded to questionable on Saturday, and was testing his right knee out in early warmups before the game. He went through several drills, and was getting worked out by Kris Richard. He left the field with Dennis Allen and one of the Saints trainers after the workout period. He returned during team warmups.

Kickoff is set for 3:25 p.m. CT in America's Game of the Week on FOX. While you wait, be sure to check out our pregame report.
