Saints vs Falcons summary: stats, scores and highlights | NFL Week 18 2025

The Falcons edged past the Saints in Week 18 of the season.

The Falcons edged past the Saints in Week 18 of the season.
Update:

Two division rivals who won’t be heading into the playioffs bring their respective seasons to a close in Atlanta. Wide receiver Chris Olave, who has a blood clot on his lung, heads a lengthy injury list for Saints’ head coach Kellen Moore. Cesar Ruiz was limited on Wednesday, as was Demario Davis. Bryan Bresse, Mason Tipton, Nathan Shepherd, Alvin Kamara, Dillon Radunz, Spencer Rattler are all listed as questionable.

Atlanta are 3-4 at home this season and will be keen to close out their campaign with a win in front of their fans to lock down third place in the NFC South. Defensive lineman Brandon Dorlus is ruled out although his injury (hamstring) is not as serious as first feared.
