The New Orleans Saints battle the Carolina Panthers on primetime on Monday Night Football in Week 2.

New Orleans has ruled out six players on their inactive list ahead of the game. Rookie running back Kendre Miller is the only one with an injury, though.

  • Lynn Bowden Jr.
  • A.T. Perry
  • Kendre Miller (hamstring)
  • Kirk Merritt
  • Nick Saldiveri 
  • Kyle Phillips

Miller is the most notable. He practiced in limited fashion some last week. 

Jamaal Williams will once again have a heavy workload out of the backfield. Expect Tony Jones Jr. to be his backup. Perry is inactive for the second week in a row as a depth receiver. 

Rookie edge rusher Isaiah Foskey is active. Expect him to see the field some after Payton Turner's injury in Week 1. 

J.T. Gray is back. Great news for Saints special teams there.
