Marquez Valdes-Scantling, the New Orleans Saints wide receiver, is facing a challenging situation as he deals with a chest injury and illness, which kept him from practicing all week. Listed as questionable for Monday's game, his availability remains uncertain, but there is hope from the coaching staff that he might recover in time.
If Valdes-Scantling is unable to play, the Saints will likely rely on Kevin Austin Jr., Dante Pettis, and Cedrick Wilson Jr. to step up in the passing game. His absence would also elevate the roles of tight ends Juwan Johnson and Foster Moreau, with Moreau showing promise in recent games.
