Saints Rule Out Carr and Kamara for MNF Game

The New Orleans Saints have ruled out quarterback Derek Carr and running back Alvin Kamara for their upcoming Monday Night Football game against the Green Bay Packers due to injuries. Carr is dealing with a fractured left hand and potential concussion symptoms, while Kamara's groin injury appears more severe than initially thought, raising concerns about his availability for the remainder of the season. In their absence, rookie Spencer Rattler will start as quarterback, and Kendre Miller is expected to take on a larger role in the backfield. Wide receivers Chris Olave and Bub Means are also ruled out, adding to the Saints' injury woes. The team has added Clyde Edwards-Helaire to the practice squad as a potential replacement for Kamara if his season ends prematurely. The Saints' playoff chances are slim, with a less than 1% probability of reaching the NFC playoffs, potentially influencing their decision to rest key players.
