Saints plan vs Bijan Robinson just took a major hit after ruling out 3 players

The New Orleans Saints ruled out Kaden Elliss, Carl Granderson, and Anfernee Jennings ahead of their upcoming matchup against running back Bijan Robinson. The absences leave significant holes across the front seven, while linebacker Pete Werner's playing status remains questionable. Danny Stutsman is projected to step into a full-time starting role, with Isaiah Stalbird potentially joining him as a starter if Werner is unavailable.

To counter the defensive injuries, New Orleans will rely heavily on interior defensive line support against Robinson. Rookie defensive tackle Christen Miller carries no injury designation after being sidelined by a toe injury since Week 1. Darrion Gray notes that Miller, Khristian Boyd, and Colby Wooden will be counted on to create penetration behind the line of scrimmage.
