Saints' Julian Blackmon: Tallies 10 tackles in loss
Blackmon logged 10 tackles (five solo) in the Saints' 45-24 loss to the Falcons on Monday.
Blackmon played all 57 of the Saints' defensive snaps in the blowout loss. Despite a long night for the defensive unit, the free safety tallied four more tackles than the next closest Saints defenders (Tyree Wilson and Jonas Sanker).

Saints' Jaylan Ford: Returns to practice
The Saints designated Ford (ankle) for return to practice from injured reserve Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
The Saints placed Ford on injured reserve Aug. 31 with a designation to return. The linebacker was a full participant in his return to practice Wednesday, signaling he could be ready to return to the active roster shortly. If the Saints fail to retain Ford to the 53-man roster by Oct. 28, he will need to remain on IR for the remainder of the 2026 season.

Saints' Lorenzo Styles: Returns to practice Wednesday
The Saints designated Styles (calf) to return from injured reserve Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Styles was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, which were his first reps since tweaking his calf in a preseason game against the Rams in late April. The rookie fifth-rounder will likely need multiple full practices before being activated from IR, but he could make his NFL regular-season debut as soon as Sunday against the Vikings.

Saints' Kaden Elliss: Estimated as non-participant Wednesday
Elliss (calf) was estimated as a non-participant at practice Wednesday.
The Saints' only started their week of preparation with a walk-through practice, but the estimation signals Elliss is in jeopardy of missing another game because of a nagging calf injury. Unless he returns to practice in some capacity Thursday or Friday, odds are low he'll be available Sunday versus the Vikings.

Saints' Julian Blackmon: Dealing with shoulder issue
Blackmon (shoulder) was estimated as a limited participant at practice Wednesday.
The Saints only held a walk-through practice to start the week, and the precise nature of the injury is unclear, but the estimation suggests it's probably nothing too severe. If he can practice in full Thursday or Friday, he might be able to avoid carrying an injury designation into the weekend altogether.

Saints' Noah Fant: Limited Wednesday
Fant (abdomen) was limited in Wednesday's practice.
Fant missed Monday night's loss to the Falcons, but his limited start to the week would seem to give the veteran tight end a good shot to return to the field for Week 5 against the Vikings. He's turned 12 targets into eight catches for 66 yards and three touchdowns this season as one of Tyler Shough's favorite targets near the end zone.

Saints' Tyler Shough: Limited with left hand issue
Shough was limited with a non-throwing hand injury Wednesday, Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football reports.
Shough had his left hand wrapped during Wednesday's walkthrough, but the team is not overly concerned, according to Triplett. It was a physical game Monday night as the Falcons registered 12 quarterback hits on Shough. As it stands, Shough's status is not in jeopardy for Sunday's game against the Vikings.

Saints' Alvin Kamara: Tending to back issue
Kamara (back) did not participate in Wednesday's walkthrough, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
The veteran was not at practice Wednesday after picking up a back injury during the Monday Night Football loss to the Falcons. Kamara has a couple more days to get back on the practice field before his status for Week 5 comes into question, but the back issue will be one to monitor. With Travis Etienne (hamstring) already out, Kendre Miller or CJ Donaldson may be more involved if Kamara is unable to go Sunday against the Vikings.

Saints' Chris Olave: Gets rest day Wednesday
Olave had a rest day at Wednesday's practice, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
The Saints had a walkthrough Wednesday after having played Monday night against the Falcons. Olave was given a rest day, and according to Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football, it was unrelated to a hard shot he took during the loss to the Falcons. Olave does not appear to be dealing with an injury, and should return to practice later in the week.

Saints' Barion Brown: Productive night with special teams
Brown recorded one carry for a loss of five yards while also adding 130 kickoff-return yards and a two-yard punt return during Monday night's 45-24 loss to the Falcons.
Brown made his return to action Monday after missing the team's Week 3 loss to Las Vegas while nursing a hamstring injury. The wide receiver logged just three snaps on offense, failing to garner a target against Atlanta. Brown will continue to have no offensive upside barring an injury to another member of the Saints' WR room.

Saints' Oscar Delp: Not targeted despite expanded role
Delp was not targeted during Monday's 45-24 loss versus the Falcons.
Delp did record a solo tackle in punt coverage after New Orleans went three-and-out on its first offensive series, but that was his only mark on the stat sheet in Week 4. On a positive note, he was second on the team in snaps at tight end (23) behind veteran Juwan Johnson (53) with Noah Fant (abdomen) sidelined. His involvement in Week 5 versus the Ravens will likely depend on the availability of Fant.

Saints' Bryce Lance: Does little with five targets
Lance turned five targets into a seven-yard catch during the Saints' 45-24 loss to the Falcons on Monday.
Lance finished fifth on the Saints in targets from quarterback Tyler Shough, though each of the four misses between the duo came on deep passes. After catching three of four targets for 42 yards in his NFL debut against the Lions in Week 1, Lance has just two catches (on nine targets) for 15 yards over his last three games. He'll continue to operate as the Saints' WR3 behind Chris Olave and Devaughn Vele, though Lance's playing time will take a significant hit once fellow rookie Jordyn Tyson (hamstring) is cleared to return from injured reserve, though Adam notes that Week 7 against the Steelers is the earliest targeted return for Tyson. The Saints will stay at home for Week 5 against the Vikings and their aggressive defense.
