Barf. Thursday night’s prime-time game between the New Orleans Saints and Arizona Cardinals is looking more like a war of attrition than a matchup featuring heavyweight talents. Neither team practiced on Monday given the short turnaround between their Week 6 games on Sunday and Week 7’s upcoming tilt on Thursday, so they offered only estimates from the training staff on the initial injury report.
And it’s a doozy. The Saints estimated that 14 different players would have either sat out on Monday or only practiced on a limited basis due to injuries. Arizona estimated that 13 of their own would have been sidelined to some extent, too. That’s a combined 27 players, or 25% of the 106 guys eligible to play in this game between both squads’ 53-man rosters.
Hopefully things improve when each team actually practices on Tuesday. For now, here is what they’re reporting on Monday:
