The new Orleans Saints and Denver Broncos announced their lists of inactive players for Week 7’s prime-time game at the Caesars Superdome, and it’s a lot of high-profile starters sidelined for the black and gold.
But it isn’t all bad news. Second-year running back Kendre Miller will make his season debut after missing all of training camp and the first four games with a hamstring injury; after practicing for two weeks, his coaches are confident he can get on the field and help the team snap their four-week losing streak.
Additionally, starting left guard/center Lucas Patrick is active, but it remains to be seen whether he’ll play while dealing with a chest injury. He hurt his collarbone a few weeks back and hasn’t been able to practice, so they may be holding him in reserve should other injuries force him into the game.
Here’s the full list:
New Orleans Saints inactive players:
- QB Derek Carr
- TE Taysom Hill
- WR Chris Olave
- LB Pete Werner
- DT Khalen Saunders
- C/G Cesar Ruiz
- RB Jordan Mims
Denver Broncos inactive players:
- CB Pat Surtain II
- CB Kris Abrams-Draine
- T Alex Palczewski
- TE Greg Dulcich
- OLB Dondrea Tillman
- DL Eyioma Uwazurike
- QB Zach Wilson (emergency third quarterback)
