New Orleans Saints

New Orleans Saints quarterback Derek Carr played his best game of the season in Week 18's blowout win over the Atlanta Falcons. Carr completed 22-of-28 passes for 264 yards for four touchdowns in the dominant 48-17 victory. The veteran quarterback finished his first campaign in New Orleans with 3,614 passing yards, 21 touchdowns, and eight interceptions. With Tampa Bay winning today, the Saints now await the result of the Green Bay and Seattle games as they hang onto a thread of hope to continue their season.

New Orleans Saints wide receiver A.T. Perry (illness) is officially active for Week 18 versus the Atlanta Falcons. He had been listed as questionable but was trending in the right direction after logging a full practice on Friday. The rookie has delivered nine catches, 193 yards, and two touchdowns through nine games, but he remains off the fantasy radar as the Saints' No. 3 receiver behind Chris Olave and Rashid Shaheed.

New Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson (chest) is officially active for Week 18 against the Atlanta Falcons. He'll suit up for the regular-season finale despite being listed as questionable. The 27-year-old has looked great lately, catching 14 passes for 172 yards and three touchdowns over his last three games. He had one of the best games of his career last week, commanding 12 targets while amassing 90 yards. Although he hasn't been a consistent performer this season, his recent success makes him a worthwhile option in fantasy football. Managers should view him as a fringe TE1 option given his low floor and high ceiling.

New Orleans Saints running back Kendre Miller (ankle, illness) is officially active for Week 18 versus the Atlanta Falcons, per Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football. He had been listed as questionable after missing Friday's practice. Miller returns from a seven-game absence and will immediately operate as the Saints' No. 2 running back behind Jamaal Williams with Alvin Kamara (ankle) inactive. The rookie should carve out a solid snap share, but it's tough to trust him in fantasy football.

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (ankle) is inactive for Week 18 versus the Atlanta Falcons, according to Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football. The star playmaker had been listed as questionable but was trending in the wrong direction after missing three consecutive practices this past week. In his absence, Jamaal Williams will suit up as the Saints' starting running back. He figures to occupy an every-down role, putting him in the RB2 tier for fantasy purposes this Sunday.
