NFL 2023 Week 18 early inactives: Alvin Kamara out for Saints
Every week we bring you all the inactives from the 1 p.m. ET games in one post, constantly updated with the latest information.
The Saints need a win and help from the Panthers to advance to the playoffs as NFC South champs, but their attempt to take care of their own business will be hampered by the absence of a key offensive player.
Running back Alvin Kamara is inactive for Sunday's home game against the Falcons. Kamara sprained his ankle in last Sunday's win over the Buccaneers and he was listed as questionable to play this weekend. Jamaal Williams will be the lead back for New Orleans.
While they won't have Kamara, the Saints will have tight end Juwan Johnson. He's dealing with a chest injury, but he is active against Atlanta.
