The New Orleans Saints are preparing for their Week 16 matchup against the Green Bay Packers, which will feature even more injuries than once expected.
The Packers will be without a couple of key defensive players, including a once questionable Jaire Alexander who is dealing with a knee injury that has been bugging him since October. He was once expected to return this week, but it looks like he will need more time.
For the Saints, the biggest question mark was Marquez Valdes-Scantling due to a chest/illness injury designation. The team will indeed be without the big-play threat out wide, further weakening the offense.
