The second- and third-stringers didn’t fare as well for New Orleans (1-1). Rookie quarterback Spencer Rattler lost a fumble and second-year quarterback Jake Haener nearly had one as neither did much to separate themselves in the race to be Carr’s backup.
The following Saints players didn’t dress for the game: Paulson Adebo, Ugo Amadi, Demario Davis, Taliese Fuaga, Jaylan Ford, Dallin Holker, Michael Jacobson, Trajan Jeffcoat, Alvin Kamara, Marshon Lattimore, Kendre Miller, Monty Rice, Nick Saldiveri, Rashid Shaheed, Isaiah Stalbird, Mason Tipton and Pete Werner.
Rookie cornerback Kool-Aid McKinstry started but left during the first series with a right leg injury. Rookie center Sincere Haynesworth was carted to the locker room in the third quarter. Rookie defensive tackle Khristian Boyd left the game in the fourth quarter.
The Saints will have two open practices this week: Tuesday night at Tulane (7-9 p.m.) and Friday afternoon at the Caesars Superdome (1-3 p.m.). Tickets are still available. New Orleans will end the preseason with a 1 p.m. game against the Tennessee Titans at the Caesars Superdome.
