METAIRIE, La. -- New Orleans Saints linebacker Demario Davis will not play against the Atlanta Falcons, according to coach Dennis Allen.

Davis (hamstring) will miss the first game of his career due to injury. His only missed game in 13 seasons was in 2021 when Davis was one of 20 Saints players out due to COVID-19 protocols.

The Saints (2-1) will also be without starting center Erik McCoy, who had groin surgery earlier this week, and right guard Cesar Ruiz (knee). McCoy left three snaps into last week's game and was replaced by Lucas Patrick, who moved from left guard to center in his absence.
