There’s no denying that the New Orleans Saints’ defensive injuries have had a huge impact on their extremely successful season. And, with Marcus Davenport and Sheldon Rankins out for the season, their depth will be tested now more than ever before.
Both have been ruled out for the season in the last few weeks and will continue to impact the Saints. Davenport is a defensive end while Rankins is a defensive tackle. With linebackers A.J. Klein and Kiko Alonso also missing last week’s game, there are multiple holes on this Saints defense.
