OUT

• Derek Carr (left hand)
• Alvin Kamara (groin)
• Bub Means (ankle)
• Chris Olave (head)

QUESTIONABLE

• Marquez Valdes-Scantling (chest/illness)

Juwan Johnson (foot) and Chase Young (illness) do not carry injury designations for Monday night’s game and were full participants of practice on Saturday.

Marquez Valdes-Scantling’s illness that he is dealing with is the flu, but was around observing practice helping prepare for the mental side, according to Darren Rizzi. That bug has spread a little throughout the Saints locker room and it was something Alvin Kamara had been down with last week. They’re obviously hoping it doesn’t reach more players and coaches.
