Saints' Week 2 injury updates

Taysom Hill leaves with chest injury

Hill was injured late in the third quarter. He is dealing with a chest issue. The utility weapon for New Orleans was a key blocker for their offense against Dallas. He was taken to a local hospital when he was removed from the game.

Dennis Allen says that Hill will be on the injury report this week. It is not believed to be a serious injury for Hill.

Hill is clearly a key piece to the Saints offense under Klint Kubiak. He was not lying when he notioned that Hill would be impactful in his scheme immediately. 

Tyrann Mathieu leaves game shortly but returns

Mathieu seemingly had a cramp during the third quarter of the Saints-Cowboys matchup. He went to the locker room and got an IV. Mathieu did return to action in the fourth quarter. 

Dennis Allen did not mention Mathieu's injury on Monday.

Marshon Lattimore wanted to play in Week 2

Allen noted that Lattimore wanted to play against Dallas. He felt healthy enough. The staff chose the cautious route and kept him from playing. Kool-Aid McKinstry stepped up in his absence as a rookie defensive back.
