Updates, highlights
Packers without four defensive starters: The Saints are lacking a ton of firepower on offense, including quarterback Derek Carr and running back Alvin Kamara, but the Packers will be without four starters on defense: linebacker Quay Walker, cornerback Jaire Alexander, defensive back Javon Bullard and safety Evan Williams are all inactive with injuries. This could be a good test for Jeff Hafley’s unexpectedly short-handed defense. The Saints will start rookie Spencer Rattler at quarterback.
