Saints CB Marshon Lattimore (abdomen) is inactive for today's game against the Falcons. That leaves an already volatile New Orleans defense without its top corner vs. an Atlanta passing game that gets WR Calvin Ridley back.

Saints CB Marshon Lattimore finished the week with a full Friday practice and is off the final injury report ahead of Sunday's visit to the Patriots. Lattimore missed Week 2 after thumb surgery but looks ready to return for Week 3. He's not a high-upside IDP option for this matchup, but the Saints defense gets its top cover man back.

Saints CB Marshon Lattimore is having surgery Tuesday for a chipped bone in his right thumb. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports that he'll be "week to week" in his return timeline. That makes it sound as though we should expect Lattimore to miss at least the Week 2 visit to Carolina. We'll see beyond that. New Orleans will at least get CB Bradley Roby for that contest. He had to finish out a league suspension in Week 1 after arriving via trade from Houston.

Saints CB Marshon Lattimore (abdomen) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Falcons. He put in limited practices all week. We'll check his status Sunday morning.

Saints CB Marshon Lattimore "tweaked" a hamstring in Wednesday's practice, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Although he reports that it's "not considered major," Lattimore missed Thursday's practice. Even if he returns for Friday, he's likely to hit Sunday's game at Detroit less than 100%. That's good news for Lions WR Kenny Golladay. Try to keep Lattimore out of IDP lineups.
