New Orleans Saints Injury Report Week 7
Three Key Players Ruled Out for Saints-Cardinals Matchup
The New Orleans Saints have released their official injury report for Week 7, and it's not good news for the team. Three key players have been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Arizona Cardinals: wide receiver Michael Thomas, running back Alvin Kamara, and defensive end Cameron Jordan. All three players are dealing with significant injuries.
Thomas Dealing with Ankle Injury
Thomas has been dealing with an ankle injury since Week 1, and it's clear that the injury is still bothering him. He aggravated the injury in Week 5 against the Seattle Seahawks, and he's missed the last two games as a result. It's unclear when Thomas will be able to return to the field, but it's clear that he won't be playing this week.
Kamara Dealing with Knee Injury
Kamara suffered a knee injury in the first half of the Saints' Week 6 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. He was able to return to the game and finish the game, but it's clear that the injury is a concern. The Saints have been cautious with Kamara's knee this week, and they've decided to hold him out of Sunday's game. It's unclear when Kamara will be able to return to the field.
Jordan Dealing with Shoulder Injury
Jordan suffered a shoulder injury in the Saints' Week 6 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. He was able to finish the game, but it's clear that the injury is a concern. The Saints have been cautious with Jordan's shoulder this week, and they've decided to hold him out of Sunday's game. It's unclear when Jordan will be able to return to the field.
Saints Secondary Depleted
The Saints' secondary is already depleted, and the injuries to Jordan and Adeboyejo have made it even thinner. The Saints will likely have to rely on some inexperienced players in the secondary this week, which could be a problem against a Cardinals team that has a lot of talented receivers.
Conclusion
The Saints are a bottom-five team in the league against the pass. With their best player in the secondary out, the Saints pass defense could struggle even more. They're going up against a Cardinals team that has one of the best receivers in the league in DeAndre Hopkins. Hopkins will likely be a major problem for a depleted Saints secondary. The Saints will need to find a way to slow down Hopkins if they want to have a chance at winning this game.
