Saints Thursday Injury Report: 2021 Week 17 vs. Carolina Panthers

K Major · 12-30-2021, 10:33 PM

Still no Ramz or Armstead & not to mention McCoy is OUT with Covid.

That leaves Ruiz as the only starter vs Panthers (he was skull drug 1st meeting with Carolina) on Sunday. Good luck with that.

I'd prefer to see Clapp at center. Ruiz can't comprehend coverages at the center position.

Edit ***

I saw a tweet from Underhill stating Clapp practiced at center today.

Well...guess this looks like another loss. That offensive line is gonna get someone killed.

AsylumGuido · 12-31-2021, 04:16 PM

Note that Armstead actually practiced today. Ramczyk must not have cleared the COVID list yet.

AsylumGuido · 12-31-2021, 04:52 PM

Sweet! Deonte Harty (Harris) is back!

Washington back, as well.

Not included on the Injury List, but very important:

"The Panthers will be without defensive stars DE Brian Burns, LB Haason Reddick, LB Shaq Thompson, and DE Marquis Haynes, who are on the Reserve-Covid list."

These four players have 25 of the Panthers' 36 sacks on the season. This may even things out a bit in the trenches.

FYI, Ramz is done for the season per Jeff Duncan.

Trequan Smith ...

Swing and a miss draft selection.

Let him walk in 2022.

I was just wondering about that. They could have put him on IR weeks ago, but didn't. Waste of the roster spot for six weeks.

True, but With all the injuries they’ve had on the o line (and the rest of the team) roster spots were not hard to come by. I’m guessing that if there was even a small chance that ram could come back they felt it was worth it. The lower level guys they’re forced to be playing with now aren’t worth the roster space. Just my take.

I know i’m blocked by Guido so anyone else chime in.

Maybe you can tell us why they didn't? Give us some of your insider info...or do we have to wait until its broadcast on XM radio first?
