Falcons
- Falcons HC Raheem Morris intimated that DL Ta’Quon Graham (pectoral) could be placed on injured reserve: “Not great. We will have to make some significant changes there.” (Josh Kendall)

Saints
Saints WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling compared interim HC Darren Rizzi to Chiefs HC Andy Reid because of his tendency to hold players accountable.
“[Rizzi] holds everybody to the same standard, he’s passionate, he holds people accountable,” Valdes-Scantling, via Madison Williams of SI. “I think that’s something that you just don’t see a lot because when you get to the higher level of the NFL, everybody gets treated differently. But, he’s one of those coaches like how coach Reid was, hold everybody to the same standard. I love that about him.”
Valdes-Scantling reiterated how Rizzi keeps players to a high standard.
“Coach Reid does a good job over there of keeping everybody—the standard being the standard, and I think Rizz has taken that and really made it a thing, because no one is getting coached any differently, everyone is getting coached hard, everyone is getting held accountable and I think that’s important.”
