Los Angeles Rams Vs New Orleans Saints: Inactive players list

As far as the Saints are concerned, the QB Jake Haener will be absent from the game. In addition to this, the RB Kendre Miller and the RT Ryan Ramczyk will also be inactive for the game. Also, DE Isaiah Foskey and LB Monty Rice will not be taking part in this match along with CB Cameron Dantzler and DB Lonnie Johnson.

As far as the Rams are concerned, they are stepping into the field without their RB Zach Evans and their OL Warren McClendon. In addition to this, the DL Desjuan Johnson, OLB Ochaun Mathis, and CB Tre Tomlinson will not be participating in the competition.

The matchup will hopefully be filled with much excitement because the Saints have one of the best defenses in the leagues and the Rams have quite a decent offense to go against them.

Will the Saints be able to contain the Rams’ offense?

Well, the Rams are ranked 9 in terms of offense as of week 16, while the Saints defense is ranked 6 as per recent developments. It’s only valid to ask whether the Saints can put a stop to the Rams, who have won their last game against the Washington Commanders. Everyone will watch the usual suspects like Matthew Stafford, Cooper Kupp, and Puka Nacua. However, the Rams RB Kyren Williams is also worth watching.

In the Commanders game, Williams had 27 carries over 152 yards and also went for a touchdown. His performance has been consistent throughout. It would be inconsiderate to not mention Demario Davis in the conversation because the Saints demolished the New York Giants and are on a two-game win streak.

The LB Davis had 10 total tackles and a sack in the Giants game. If he plays like that today, the Rams might have to be extra cautious of this defense.
