Nursing ankle injury
Lemieux suffered an ankle injury during Saturday's preseason game against Denver, Ross Jackson of WWL Louisiana reports.
ANALYSIS
Lemieux was seen limping off the field during the closing seconds of the first half, but he was starting at center for the start of the third quarter. His ability to return suggests that his injury isn't severe, but the Saints will provide an update on its severity once Lemieux undergoes further tests. The 2020 fifth-rounder signed a contract with the Saints in early August and appeared in seven games (four starts) for New Orleans in 2024.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Tries out for Saints
Lemieux, who is recovering from a torn biceps, had a tryout with the Saints on Monday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Lemieux appeared in 18 games with the Giants over the past four seasons, logging 12 starts. Most of his playing time came in his rookie season in 2020, when Lemieux had nine starts among his 12 appearances. He ultimately signed a contract with New Orleans after the tryout, and Lemieux could compete for a starting spot, especially if rookie first-round pick Taliese Fuaga is plugged in at tackle rather than guard.
