Saints - Cowboys injury report for NFL week 2: Jake Ferguson, Marshon Lattimore and Khalen Saunders

Dallas Cowboys injury report Week 2 vs Saints
After his status went from questionable to doubtful, the Cowboys have finally moved tight end Jake Ferguson to the list of inactives against the Saints today. After a scary injury to his knee in Week 1, Ferguson got good news that he’d only suffered a minor sprain to his MCL and by Wednesday, he was pain-free. Still, the Cowboys are playing it safe and keeping him sidelined this week.

Unfortunately for the Cowboys, they’ll also be without another tight end, John Stephens Jr., who’s missing the second week in a row due to a hamstring issue.

New Orleans Saints injury report Week 2 @ Cowboys
After being limited in practices this week, safety Tyrann Mathieu, tight end Foster Moreau, as well as wide receiver Rashid Shaheed are all good to go against the Cowboys. Linebacker Jaylan Ford and cornerback Marshon Lattimore are officially inactive against the Cowboys. Lattimore, the four-time Pro Bowler and leader of the Saints defense, is a huge loss.
I’m told #Saints CB Marshon Lattimore, listed as questionable with a hamstring, will be inactive vs the #Cowboys.

Linebacker D’Marco Jackson and defensive tackle Khalen Saunders are both out as well, dealing with calf injuries. Saunders is a big loss as he’s a starter on the Saints defensive line. All these defensive injuries are concerning against an explosive Dallas offense in their own territory.
INACTIVE
- LB Jaylan Ford
- TE Dallin Holker
- LB D’Marco Jackson
- CB Marshon Lattimore
- WR A.T. Perry
- QB Spencer Rattler (designated emergency third quarterback)
- DT Khalen Saunders
