The New Orleans Saints will spend time this week considering which players to use on punt returns after placing Tommylee Lewis on injured reserve on Wednesday.
Coach Sean Payton listed running back Alvin Kamara and wide receivers Ted Ginn Jr. and Austin Carr as the initial candidates to replace Lewis for the Week 3 game against the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday.
"Those guys have all taken snaps at it, and we'll look at the type of returns we want to run and then have a plan accordingly," Payton said Thursday.
After Lewis suffered his injury during the first half of last Sunday's win over the Cleveland Browns, the Saints put Kamara back for the Browns' only punt of the second half, but Cleveland punted it out of bounds.
