The New Orleans Saints and Carolina Panthers are both dealing with injuries across the board, and it forced them to rule out some key players for Sunday’s game from the Mercedes-Benz Superdome. New Orleans will be without multiple starters including left guard Andrus Peat (broken arm), returns specialist Deonte Harris (hamstring), fullback Zach Line (knee), and now, cornerback Marshon Lattimore (hamstring).
Friday’s official Saints injury report listed Lattimore as questionable to play, but the team decided to rest him another week after testing his hamstring in pregame warmups. With another game in just four days against wide receiver Julio Jones and the Atlanta Falcons, it makes sense to let Lattimore’s body fully recover before giving him the green light.
