The New Orleans Saints are placing Emmanuel Sanders on the reserve/COVID-19 list and the veteran wide receiver won't play Sunday against the Carolina Panthers, a source told Adam Schefter of ESPN.

(Tre’Quan Smith, Marquez Callaway, and Bennie Fowler would likely be the top three wideouts for New Orleans if Thomas is also out on Sunday.)

So... it’s Smith, Callaway and Deonte Harris?

More Cook and Trautman. Also probably more two RB looks with Kamara at WR.

Have a bad feeling the 2020 season is close to ending, or at least close to being significantly modified with a long break.

Why would you think that? There is still a ridiculously small number of players that have tested positive. The vast majority of COVID listings have either been false positives or possible close contacts. At this point of the season it has been FAR less difficult than I expected and you know how positive I am. I expected more impact with still no chance of cancelling or suspension. Once again, there is WAY too much revenue on the line to overreact on the part of the NFL.

I’m looking forward to seeing a bit more Callaway, regardless of the reasons why!

I think Crawley has joined Sanders on the Covid list now also.

We still have Kamara at RB/WR and Jared Cook at TE (If we decide to throw to him). What bothers me too is neither Armstead nor Nick Eason practiced.

Wait, Bennie Fowler WR was on DNP for a shoulder injury too. Uggh.
