The New Orleans Saints will be without starting linebacker Kaden Elliss and edge rusher Carl Granderson for Monday night's matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. Elliss, a former Saint drafted by New Orleans, played three seasons in Atlanta before re-signing this season. Pete Werner is questionable with a shoulder injury.
Edge rushers Anfernee Jennings (knee) and Carl Granderson (ankle) are also ruled out. Tight end Noah Fant is questionable with an abdomen injury. Saints coach Kellen Moore stated Werner has not practiced all week and is a game-time decision, noting the evaluations are physical rather than mental.
The team will reassess over the next 24 hours before Monday night's game.
