NEW ORLEANS, La. – As the New Orleans Saints prepare to take on the San Francisco 49ers, the Saints have released their inactive players for this matchup.
- WR Trey Palmer
- CB Rejzohn Wright
- LG Trevor Penning (Toe)
- OL Zavier Truss
- DL Jonathan Bullard
- DT Khristian Boyd
- DE Chase Young (Calf)
Young and Penning are missing their second consecutive games of the season with the hopes of returning to the field soon. In Penning’s place will be offensive lineman Dillon Radunz. The Saints also elevated rookie defensive end Fadil Diggs and signed Jonah Williams to help with numbers on the defensive line, however it will be veterans Cameron Jordan and Carl Granderson who will see the bulk of snaps there.
Not listed is safety Julian Blackmon, the starter at the position last week. He was moved to Injured Reserve on Saturday ahead of game day with a shoulder injury that required surgery. Rookie safety Jonas Sanker will make his debut as a starter in his place. New Orleans elevated safety Terrell Burgess.
