The New Orleans Saints and Dallas Cowboys announced which players will not suit up for their Thursday Night Football game. Here are the complete lists:
New Orleans knew going into this game that starting left tackle Terron Armstead would be held out – he’s now missed four games while patiently working back from an injured pectoral muscle. Backup Jermon Bushrod will start again in his place.
- DL Mitchell Loewen
- DL Trey Hendrickson
- LB Manti Te’o
- OL Terron Armstead
- OL Will Clapp
- WR Brandon Marshall
- WR Tommylee Lewis
Dallas was pretty badly beaten up, and preemptively ruled out four players earlier in the week due to injuries – most notably starting linebacker Sean Lee, who has been replaced by a rookie stud, Leighton Vander Esch.
