New Orleans Saints linebacker Demario Davis will miss his first career game due to a hamstring injury, marking a significant moment as he has only missed one game in his 13-season career previously due to COVID-19 protocols. The Saints will also be without starting center Erik McCoy, who underwent groin surgery, and right guard Cesar Ruiz due to a knee injury. However, running back Alvin Kamara and tight end Taysom Hill are expected to return to action against the Atlanta Falcons.
- Demario Davis's absence is a significant loss for the Saints' defense.
- The Saints are dealing with multiple injuries on the offensive line.
- Alvin Kamara and Taysom Hill's potential return could help mitigate some of the impact from the injuries.
