Saints' Michael Hoomanawanui, Garrett Griffin ruled out vs. Falcons

The New Orleans Saints are banged up at the tight position for Sunday's game against the Atlanta Falcons.

Michael Hoomanawanui (concussion) and Garrett Griffin (foot) have been ruled out, leaving the Saints with just Josh Hill (shoulder) and John Phillips on the active 53-man roster.

Fullback Zach Line is capable of contributing at tight end if necessary, and the Saints have tight end Alex Ellis on the practice squad.

Meanwhile, the Saints should have the offensive line at full strength.

Right guard Larry Warford (concussion) put in a full practice Friday and the Saints did not assign him a game designation, signaling Warford should play against the Falcons.
