Impact Turner was forced to miss New Orleans' Week 5 loss to Kansas City but is set to return after turning in two limited practices to close the week. He should resume his rotational role along the defensive line.

Payton Turner - Set for return Turner (knee) is active for Sunday's game against Tampa Bay,John Hendrix of SI.com reports.
Lucas Patrick - Out for Week 6 Patrick (chest) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, John Hendrix of SI.com reports.
Impact Patrick has been banged up with several issues throughout the season, including toe, groin and chest injuries. This will be his first full game missed, likely leaving Connor McGovern as the starting center.

Kendre Miller - Not suiting up Miller (hamstring) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, John Hendrix of SI.com reports.
Impact Miller missed the first five weeks of the season with a hamstring issue and was activated off injured reserve Saturday. Even after turning in three full practices, however, he'll be inactive once again. Jamaal Williams will remain the top backup to Alvin Kamara against Tampa Bay as a result.

Will Harris - Lands on IR The Saints placed Harris (hamstring) on injured reserve Saturday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Impact Harris hurt his hamstring last Monday against the Chiefs and didn't practice at all this week. With the injury deemed serious enough to warrant Harris' placement on IR, the safety will need to sit out New Orleans' next four contests. Johnathan Abram played the majority of snaps following Harris' departure from Monday's game and could start Sunday versus Tampa Bay, though Jordan Howden is also a possibility for the role.

Kendre Miller - Activated off IR Miller (hamstring) was activated off injured reserve Saturday, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports. The second-year back still remains questionable for Sunday's game agai...
Impact Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football in a second report suggested Miller likely won't see a significant role right out of the gate, which makes sense given the young back's history of injuries throughout his career. Expect Alvin Kamara to be the main focal point on offense with rookie quarterback Spencer Rattler making his first career start in replace of the injured Derek Carr (oblique).

Derek Carr - Officially ruled out for Week 6 Carr (oblique) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers.
Impact Carr sustained a left oblique strain in the fourth quarter of this past Monday's loss at Kansas City. After undergoing an MRI on Tuesday, he received a prognosis of multiple weeks, and while an IR stint isn't considered likely, per coach Dennis Allen, Carr will miss the first of what should be many games this weekend. The Saints are rolling with rookie fifth-round pick Spencer Rattler at quarterback Sunday and perhaps for as long as Carr is sidelined.

Will Harris - Missing Week 6 Harris (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Buccaneers, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
Impact New Orleans' top strong safety was unable to practice all week after exiting Monday night's loss to the Chiefs with a hamstring issue. With Harris missing his first game of the season, both Jordan Howden and J.T. Gray could see increased snaps alongside Tyrann Mathieu in the Saints' secondary in Week 6.
OCTOBER 11 • ROTOWIRE
Pete Werner - Won't play Sunday Werner (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Buccaneers, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
Impact Werner didn't practice all week after missing the Saints' Week 5 loss to the Chiefs on Monday night due to a hamstring injury, so it's no surprise he won't suit up Sunday. Expect Anfernee Orji or Jaylan Ford to serve as New Orleans' top weakside linebacker with both Werner and Nephi Sewell (knee) out in Week 6.
OCTOBER 11 • ROTOWIRE
Cesar Ruiz - Out again versus Bucs Ruiz (knee) is inactive for Sunday's matchup versus Tampa Bay, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
Impact Ruiz will miss the Saints' Week 6 outing after failing to practice Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. The starting right guard's absence should put Landon Young on the front line Sunday.

Kendre Miller - Questionable for Week 6 Miller (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, Matthew Paras of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Impact Miller has been a full participant in each practice since last Friday, so if he's held out again this Sunday it might be a matter of not having a role more so than anything to do with his hamstring. The Saints will need to activate him from injured reserve by 4:00 p.m. ET on Saturday in order for Miller to play against the Bucs on Sunday.

Taysom Hill - Ruled out Hill (ribs) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Tampa Bay, Matthew Paras of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Impact Had he been healthy enough to play, Hill might have taken on a larger role than usual with Spencer Rattler filling in for Derek Carr (oblique). As is, Hill's next chance to play is Thursday against the Broncos, with a lack of practice participation this week suggesting he isn't especially likely to be ready on a short week.
OCTOBER 11 • ROTOWIRE
Alvin Kamara - Cleared to face Tampa Kamara (hip/hand) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against Tampa Bay, Matthew Paras of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Impact The Saints listed Kamara as a non-participant on Wednesday's practice estimate, after he took on a season-high 90 percent snap share in a 26-13 loss to the Chiefs on Monday. He was then a limited practice participant Thursday and Friday, apparently showing enough to avoid an injury designation for the first start of rookie QB Spencer Rattler's career. The Saints may lean on Kamara even more than usual, especially because Taysom Hill (rib) also is out this week, but the combination of Derek Carr's oblique injury and continued health struggles for the interior offensive line mean it's not the best setup for per-touch efficiency or frequent red-zone visits. The opponent, at least, appears favorable for fantasy production, although Tampa's injury-riddled defense appears somewhat healthier compared to the past few games.

Rashid Shaheed - Avoids injury designation Shaheed (hip) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against Tampa Bay, Matthew Paras of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Impact Shaheed was a limited participant Thursday and Friday, after being listed as questionable on Wednesday's practice estimate. Avoiding an injury designation suggests he's expected to occupy his usual role, but that may prove less fruitful for fantasy managers with rookie Spencer Rattler replacing an injured Derek Carr (oblique) under center.

Taysom Hill - Not practicing Hill (ribs) didn't practice Thursday.
Impact Hill hasn't practiced since suffering rib fractures during a Week 4 loss at Atlanta, putting him in danger of missing a second straight games. His role may be expanded if he returns before QB Derek Carr (oblique), although that would also mean fewer red-zone visits for the Saints offense unless fill-in quarterback Spencer Rattler is a pleasant surprise. Rattler will start this Sunday against Tampa Bay.
OCTOBER 10 • ROTOWIRE
Rashid Shaheed - Logs limited practice Thursday Shaheed (hip) was a limited practice participant Thursday, John Hendrix of SI.com reports.
Impact Shaheed made a brief appearance at the media-access portion of Thursday's session, but it was enough for him to go down as limited after opening Week 6 prep with a DNP. He told Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football on Thursday that his hip injury is "minor," and he expects to suit up Sunday against the Buccaneers. Nonetheless, Shaheed may enter the weekend with a game designation, something that will be revealed, one way or another, on Friday's practice report.
