Offensive line depth is getting tested

Left tackle Terron Armstead exited with a high-ankle sprain and is working to return on a week-to-week basis, which isn’t great. This coincides with left guard Andrus Peat’s six-week absence after surgery on his broken arm. The Saints will have to start backups at both spots on the left side of their line — Nick Easton has filled in well at guard, but tackle is a question mark. The Saints have a tough decision to make there, with their best options being journeyman guard Patrick Omameh or untested rookie left tackle Ethan Greenidge. They could also flip star right tackle Ryan Ramczyk to the side he played in college, but that might make things worse by introducing even more instability.
