Injuries Mount for Jaguars and Saints Ahead of Tonight's Game

00:03 - Yeah, so Trevor Lawrence, it's a right knee sprain.
00:06 He's gonna warm up tonight.
00:07 In fact, he should warm up in the next hour.
00:09 If he gets clear to play, he'll go.
00:12 If he can't, it'll be CJ Beathard,
00:14 who's two and 10 lifetime as a starting quarterback,
00:16 whether he's with the Niners or the Jaguars.
00:19 Now, but the real concern is the cornerback.
00:22 Tyson Campbell is not only for all the best cornerback,
00:25 one of the best cornerbacks in the National Football League,
00:26 he will not play with a hamstring problem.
00:28 It could be a multiple week injury.
00:31 They've got a second year corner, Monteric Buster Brown,
00:35 who started one game last season.
00:37 Oh, I love that name.
00:38 He replaced him last week.
00:40 As inconsistent as Derek Carr has played,
00:43 if you've got him in fantasy,
00:44 this might be a night to start him with an asterisk.
00:47 Here's why, let's go to the Saints.
00:50 The Saints right tackle Ryan Ramchick is out
00:52 with a concussion.
00:53 Their left tackle, James Hurst,
00:56 who could play right or left tackle,
00:57 he took over the starting left tackle job
00:59 for Trevor Penning, who got benched.
01:00 He's out with an ankle injury.
01:02 So both tackles are out for real tonight.
01:04 That does worry me, but the only good news is
01:06 Jamal Williams is the backup running back for Alvin Kamara.
01:09 He's back off IR with a hamstring injury.
01:11 So he'll back up Kamara tonight.
01:13 But yeah, look, for both teams, by the way,
01:16 the Saints are two and a half and 40 is the total.
01:19 I do worry about injuries,
01:21 particularly for the Jaguars and the secondary,
01:23 and obviously the offensive line for the Saints.
01:25 So you can't say it negates each other
01:27 because the bottom line is if the Saints can protect,
01:30 they're going to be able to score tonight.
