One position that was largely unaffected was ironically the deepest spot on this team.

That's changed in recent weeks. Cornerback Paulson Adebo was lost for the year with a broken femur in Week 7. Last week's loss to the Chargers also saw star CB Marshon Lattimore leave with a reported hamstring injury that was reaggravated from the prior game against Denver.

Aside from Lattimore, there were additional issues that occurred at the position this week. Rookie second-round choice Kool-Aid McKinstry popped up on Wednesday's practice report with a hamstring issue. After participating on a limited basis on Wednesday, McKinstry missed all of practice on Thursday and Friday. Additionally, reserve CB Rico Payton missed practice on Wednesday and Thursday with a back issue.

Saints coach Dennis Allen announced on Friday afternoon that both Lattimore and McKinstry will miss Sunday's game against Carolina. Allen went on to say that Payton has 'a chance' to play but could come down to a game-time decision. ...

The interview process is vital to understanding how these prospects think and if they can make it in the NFL. The New Orleans Saints will do their due diligence throughout the combine week, and although the team has hinted at Derek Carr being the starter in 2025, QB still needs to be looked at going into the draft. One of these quarterbacks the team could target, Miami's Cam Ward, is considered the far and away top QB in the draft. It is likely Ward gets selected before pick 9, but per Nick Underhill, the Saints still met with him yesterday at the NFL Combine.
