NEW ORLEANS — After making a flurry of roster moves Saturday, the Atlanta Falcons still had some decisions to make for their game in New Orleans against the Saints. The main news involved both starting offensive guards Chris Lindstrom (foot) and Matthew Bergeron (ankle). Both linemen have been on the team's injury reports for weeks, with Bergeron missing the team's last two games.

Lindstrom and Bergeron were listed as questionable ahead of Week 12's matchup. Both were not listed among the team's inactives, meaning both linemen should return to the starting lineup in New Orleans.

As a reminder, here are the moves the Falcons made Saturday:

• Placed defensive back Billy Bowman Jr. (achilles) and defensive lineman Zach Harrison (knee) on injured reserve.
• Activated inside linebacker Divine Deablo as well as signed cornerback Cobee Bryant to the 53-man roster.
• Used a standard practice squad elevation on safety Jammie Robinson and wide receiver Dylan Drummond.
• Updated linebacker Malik Verdon's game status to out, and removed Deablo's questionable game designation.

The team previously ruled out starting receiver Drake London, who suffered a PCL strain in his knee last Sunday in the team's loss to the Carolina Panthers. In an interesting note, the Falcons have listed fellow receiver Casey Washington as an inactive player along with London. Washington was not on any Falcons' injury report throughout the week, so the assumption would be Washington is a healthy scratch.

At quarterback, the Falcons will see veteran Kirk Cousins get the start for the offense. Easton Stick will serve as his backup.

Michael Penix Jr. partially torn his left ACL last week. It was reported by ESPN's Adam Schefter Saturday evening that Penix is expected to undergo surgery this week in Los Angeles. The recovery is expected to take nine months.

"If the nine-month period holds up, Penix could be ready for the start of the 2026 season," Schefter reported, "but there are no certainties, especially for players who have injured both ACLs."

Here is the full list of Falcons' inactives for their Week 12 game against the Saints:

WR Drake London

RB Nathan Carter

ILB Josh Woods

OL Michael Jerrell

WR Casey Washington

DL Elijah Garcia

DL Khalid Kareem
