The New Orelans Saints offense took a big hit early in the first quarter against the Tennessee Titans when Ty Montgomery exited the game with a finger injury. He dropped a fastball from quarterback Trevor Siemian that appeared to dislocate his left pinky finger, initially receiving attention from trainers on the sideline before leaving for the locker room.
Officially announced as questionable to return, the Saints are in a tough spot without Montgomery. Alvin Kamara was inactive against Tennessee with a knee injury and neither Lamar Miller nor Josh Adams were elevated from the practice squad. That left Montgomery, Mark Ingram, and special teams ace Dwayne Washington as the only available running backs.
This is a developing situation. Watch this space in case Montgomery returns to the game.
