THE New Orleans Saints are once again the most injured team entering the match. The Kansas City Chiefs, however, enter the game without Rashee Rice. This is the biggest loss for the Chiefs. The Saints, on the other hand, had already ruled out seven players before the match.
The Saints will have to face the Chiefs defensive tackle without two-thirds of their interior offensive line. Cesar Ruiz will miss his second straight game and Erik McCoy is on injured reserve. To make matters worse, Shane Lemieux started at center last week and is already on injured reserve himself.
The return of Demario Davis is the best injury news the Saints have received, but it came at the cost of losing Pete Werner and Willie Gay.
Here is the full list of inactive players for the Week 5 game against the Chiefs:
