Trent Brown is inactive for the third consecutive game with a calf injury. MLB Ja’Whaun Bentley was ruled out with an injury he suffered in last weekend’s game with the Saints. Jahlani Tavai was called up to fill the hole. The secondary will be thin without Williams and Wade. Stevenson’s scratch will leave the backfield to Damien Harris, Brandon Bolden, and J.J. Taylor.
