Week 7 inactive report: Second-year Saints draft makes his debut vs. Broncos
The new Orleans Saints and Denver Broncos announced their lists of inactive players for Week 7's prime-time game at the Caesars Superdome, and it's a lot of high-profile starters sidelined for the black and gold.
But it isn't all bad news. Second-year running back Kendre Miller will make his season debut after missing all of training camp and the first four games with a hamstring injury; after practicing for two weeks, his coaches are confident he can get on the field and help the team snap their four-week losing streak.
Additionally, starting left guard/center Lucas Patrick is active, but it remains to be seen whether he'll play while dealing with a chest injury. He hurt his collarbone a few weeks back and hasn't been able to practice, so they may be holding him in reserve should other injuries force him into the game.
Here's the full list:
New Orleans Saints inactive players:
QB Derek Carr
TE Taysom Hill
WR Chris Olave
LB Pete Werner
DT Khalen Saunders
C/G Cesar Ruiz
RB Jordan Mims
Denver Broncos inactive players:
CB Pat Surtain II
CB Kris Abrams-Draine
T Alex Palczewski
TE Greg Dulcich
OLB Dondrea Tillman
DL Eyioma Uwazurike
QB Zach Wilson (emergency third quarterback)
