LOS ANGELES, Calif. — It appears that the New Orleans Saints will have their full arsenal of offensive weaponry available for first-time starting quarterback Tyler Shough.
Ahead of their Week 9 game against the Los Angeles Rams, the Saints listed three players as questionable on their injury report. Running back Alvin Kamara, wide receiver Rashid Shaheed and cornerback Alontae Taylor all navigated injuries throughout the week but showed signs of positive trends throughout.
Per NewOrleans.Football’s Nick Underhill, and later confirmed by NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, Kamara and Shaheed are expected to be good to go against the Rams.

Some of the evidence for the optimism began when Kamara met with the media on Thursday while Shaheed and Taylor participated during the open media portion of practices throughout the week. Head coach Kellen Moore also said that all three were trending well after announcing their questionable designations on Friday.
Furthermore, when the team announced its Saturday roster move, a lone elevation of linebacker Eku Leota, the absence of a running back elevation from the practice squad served as a promising indication. The decision leaves Kamara and rookie running back Devin Neal as the only active running backs for the second consecutive week.
While there has been no update yet on Taylor, his participation throughout the week generates promise.
