The New Orleans Saints walked into the season finale with the Atlanta Falcons carrying a lot of question marks in the health department. Literally, the Saints had seven players designated questionable.
Safety Lonnie Johnson and right tackle Landon Young were already ruled out. Johnson’s absence eats at the secondary depth. Young’s injury forced the Saints to go to their third-string right tackle Cameron Erving. On a positive note, defensive Payton Turner is returning from injured reserve.
However, star running b ack Alvin Kamara will not play while dealing with an ankle injury.
