  • A.T. Perry (hand)
  • Spencer Rattler (designated emergency third quarterback)
  • Khalen Saunders (calf)
  • D'Marco Jackson (calf)
  • Jaylan Ford (hamstring)
  • Dallin Holker (ankle)
  • John Ridgeway III

Perry, Willie Gay Jr. (back) and Nick Saldiveri (calf) were all questionable going into Sunday's game. New Orleans elevated Kendal Vickers and Khaleke Hudson on Saturday for the game. We should see more Mason Tipton and possibly Bub Means in the lineup, but the Saints will lean heavily on their trio of Chris Olave, Rashid Shaheed and Cedrick Wilson Jr. This also means Jake Haener is officially the backup QB.

While you wait, be sure to check out our Pregame Report for Week 1's matchup.
