Here is our first look at the New Orleans Saints injury situation on the initial Week 15 injury report ahead of Sunday’s matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. And it’s kind of bleak: the Saints listed 13 players on Wednesday’s injury report, with the Falcons reporting just a pair of their own injuries. One of those was former starting quarterback Marcus Mariota, who is going on injured reserve after undergoing knee surgery.
New Orleans practiced without linebacker Zack Baun (ankle), running back Mark Ingram II (knee), kicker Wil Lutz (illness), running back Dwayne Washington (illness), and safety P.J. Williams (knee) on Wednesday; eight other players were limited participants, including tight end Juwan Johnson (ankle), defensive end Cameron Jordan (foot), cornerback Marshon Lattimore (abdomen), and linebacker Pete Werner (ankle).
