Week 12’s inactive list is out for the New Orleans Saints. Here’s a look at who’s sitting for their matchup against the Los Angeles Rams.

CB Marshon Lattimore

CB Ken Crawley

WR Austin Carr

QB Taysom Hill

DE Al-Quadin Muhammad

RB Jonathan Williams

C Cameron Tom

There’s no surprises that starting cornerbacks Marshon Lattimore (ankle) and Ken Crawley (abdomen) are out of action, as they were ruled out on Friday’s final injury report. The Saints acquired Dexter McDougle and re-signed Sterling Moore to play in the secondary along with established cornerbacks P.J. Williams, De’Vante Harris, and Justin Hardee.

With the season-ending injury to Alex Okafor (Achilles) last week, the Saints elect to roll with just three defensive ends, as they leave rookie Al-Quadin Muhammad on the bench. Trey Hendrickson and Hau’oli Kikaha will likely rotate and split reps opposite of Cameron Jordan.

Other than that, we’re used to seeing Hill, Tom, and Carr on the bench. Williams is a bit too new to the team to use, it would appear.
