The New Orleans Saints are back from their bye week. They'll face the Atlanta Falcons in Week 12. The Saints will be without two former Pro Bowl players.
Michael Thomas and Marshon Lattimore are both dealing with injuries that will 'take some time.' Dennis Allen made that clear on Monday afternoon.
It's unknown at this time whether either player will go on injured reserve or not. The hope is that they will not have to and can return sooner rather than later. Both are key pieces for the Saints.
Accordingly, New Orleans will need guys to step up in their place. Paulson Adebo and Alontae Taylor will play a massive role on defense, and expect Isaac Yiadom to slide into the starting lineup at outside CB.
At wide receiver, A.T. Perry will keep being active. Chris Olave is set to get even more targets, and the tight ends will need to get more involved in the passing game to make up for the loss of Thomas.
Regardless, the Saints will need to stay afloat without two of their most talented players for some time.
