  • Cedrick Wilson Jr. (shoulder)
  • Kool-Aid McKinstry (hamstring)
  • Spencer Rattler (emergency third quarterback)
  • Jamaal Williams (groin)
  • Jaylan Ford
  • Lucas Patrick (ankle)
  • Khristian Boyd

New Orleans activated Shane Lemieux and Will Harris on Saturday, and both will play today. Dante Pettis and Kevin Austin Jr. were elevated for the game, and they join Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Mason Tipton and Jermaine Jackson at the receiver position. The Saints will try to end their seven-game losing streak with new interim head coach Darren Rizzi at the helm, and beating the Falcons would be a great start for him.
