Fantasy Impact: Key left Sunday's win over the Commanders with a hamstring injury. Now, it's been confirmed that the veteran pass rushers will miss the next few weeks. Jaylahn Tuimoloau and Caden Curry should see increased snaps.

Fantasy Impact: Jackson sustained a sprained ankle in Week 4's win over the Titans. Now, the two-time MVP's status is uncertain for the next few weeks. The Ravens have not officially ruled him out for this Sunday's game, but the chances of him playing seem very thin. Tyler Huntley would be set to step in at quarter in Jackson's stead.

The Saints' D/ST logged just one sack and allowed 45 points in Monday night's blowout loss to the Atlanta Falcons.

Fantasy Impact: New Orleans' defense looked bad on Monday night. They allowed Atlanta to run all over them and score a whopping 45 points over the course of the night, and they weren't able to log any big plays to help out their own offense. This unit has been bad over the start of the season and should not be started at all moving forward.

Daniel Carlson went 3-for-3 on his extra-point attempts and 1-for-2 on his field-goal attempts in Monday night's 45-24 loss to the Atlanta Falcons.

Fantasy Impact: Carlson didn't have a great night on Monday. He missed one of his two field-goal attempts against the Falcons, although the Saints went on to lost by 21 points, so it wasn't a particularly consequential miss in the end. Still, fantasy managers shouldn't trust playing him for the foreseeable future.

Kendre Miller rushed the ball six times for just nine yards and lost a fumble in Monday night's 45-24 loss to the Atlanta Falcons.

Fantasy Impact: Miller had a bad game on Monday night. He totaled just 19 yards on the ground and through the air against the Falcons, and he also lost a costly fumble, which further hurt his fantasy total. He should not be started in any fantasy league formats moving forward, especially with Alvin Kamara still seeing the bulk of the work in New Orleans' backfield right now.

Juwan Johnson hauled in 6-of-8 targets for 59 yards in Monday night's 45-24 loss to the Atlanta Falcons.

Fantasy Impact: The veteran tight end had a nice outing on Monday night. He finished with six receptions for 59 yards over the course of the game, although he wasn't able to get into the end zone at all, which left him with a mediocre fantasy total. He will continue to be a reliable week-to-week option until Jordyn Tyson (hamstring) is available to make his debut for the Saints.

Alvin Kamara rushed the ball seven times for 23 yards and two touchdowns while adding five receptions for 35 yards on the ground in Monday's 45-24 loss to the Atlanta Falcons.

Fantasy Impact: Kamara suffered an injury of some kind in the middle of Monday night's game, but he was able to return and finish out the contest. He ended up finishing with a good fantasy total thanks to his two touchdowns and five receptions on the night, though he wasn't where the team needed him to be in terms of efficiency. He will continue to be a worthwhile fantasy asset for the foreseeable future.

Devaughn Vele caught 6-of-9 targets for 54 yards and a touchdown in Monday night's 45-24 loss to the Atlanta Falcons.

Fantasy Impact: Vele's strong start to the season continued on Monday night. He caught six passes for 54 yards over the course of the game, one of which he was able to take to the house for a touchdown. He will continue to have solid week-to-week upside until Jordyn Tyson (hamstring) is back in the lineup for the Saints.

Chris Olave caught 8-of-12 targets for 116 yards in Monday night's 45-24 loss to the Atlanta Falcons.

Fantasy Impact: Olave was a bright spot for the Saints on Monday, leading the team in targets, receptions, and receiving yards in their loss to the Falcons. It briefly looked like he suffered a lower-body injury at the end of the game, but it sounds like he will be just fine, although it would still be smart for fantasy managers to monitor his status at practice throughout the week.
