Those on the questionable list include
- Safety Julian Blackmon, who's been limited in practice due to a shoulder injury
- Wide receiver/returner Barion Brown, though a full participant in Friday's practice session still questionable with a thigh.
- Running back Alvin Kamara with his back injury has been limited the last two days.
- Defensive lineman Christen Miller, who did not practice Friday due to an illness.

Linebacker Jaylan Ford and safety Lorenzo Styles are listed as questionable as they have just been moved from the Designated to Return Injured Reserve list and are in their 21-day practice window. During or by the end of that 21-day practice window, the team must either activate the player to the 53-man active roster or place him on season-ending injured reserve.
