There were no major surprises on the Saints' final injury report, but five players have already ruled out heading into a Week 6 matchup against the Houston Texans.
The Saints will again be without TE Juwan Johnson, who will be missing his third consecutive game with a calf injury. The Saints will also be without S J.T. Gray and FB Adam Prentice, both of whom left early in the win over the Patriots.
The only questionable player for the Saints is Andrus Peat, who was absent on Friday after being a full participant the first two days of the week as he works out of the concussion protocol. He is dealing with a hamstring injury that developed during the week of practice and he'll be evaluated heading into the weekend.
