Lemieux (knee) is active for Sunday's game against Atlanta. Lemieux missed the Saints' last four regular-season game due to a knee injury. However, the 2020 fifth-round pick was activated off IR on Saturday and will suit up for Sunday's NFC South clash, though he'll likely serve as the backup center to Connor McGovern with Lucas Patrick (ankle) inactive.
The Saints activated Lemieux (knee) from injured reserve Saturday, Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football reports. Lemieux was placed on injured reserve in early October due to an ankle injury. He's missed the Saints' last four regular-season games, but he was a full practice participant all week and could suit up against the Falcons on Sunday.
Lemieux (ankle) was designated to return from injured reserve Wednesday, John Hendrix of SI.com reports. New Orleans now has 21 days to activate Lemieux to its active roster before he reverts back to IR. Expect the 27-year-old offensive lineman from Oregon to reclaim the Saints' starting center role once he's returned to the field.
The Saints placed Lemieux (ankle) on injured reserve Monday, Ross Jackson of WWL Louisiana reports. Lemieux was unable to practice all week and had been ruled out for Monday night's matchup against the Chiefs due to an ankle injury prior to being placed on IR. The 27-year-old will now be forced to miss at least the Saints' next four games, with his earliest possible return coming in Week 9 against the Panthers.
Lemieux (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Monday's game versus Kansas City, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports. Lemieux has been unable to practice all week due to an ankle injury. His next chance at playing will be Week 5 against Tampa Bay on Oct. 13. The Saints signed veteran Connor McGovern from the Jets' practice squad to the active roster Friday, and although he has just two practices under his belt in New Orleans, he'll likely serve as the starting center for Monday's contest.
Lemieux (ankle) played 26 snaps (22 on offense, four on special teams) in the Saints' 16-14 win over the Cardinals on Saturday. Lemieux sat out of multiple practices due to an ankle injury, but he was able to suit up for New Orlean's preseason opener. The 2020 fifth-round guard appeared in four regular-season games (including one start) in 2023 with the Giants, and he's competing for a depth spot on the Saints' offensive line.
Lemieux sat out Saints practice Friday due to an ankle injury, John Hendrix of SI.com reports. Lemieux hurt his ankle during practice Thursday, though it's not yet clear how severe the injury is. The former Giant is slated to fill a depth role on New Orleans' offensive line for the coming campaign.
Lemieux (biceps) participated in OTAs last week, John Hendrix of SI.com reports. Lemieux missed most of the 2023 campaign with a ruptured biceps, but he was able to take the field last week with his new squad and saw first-team reps during OTAs. Although he could earn a starting role, the Oregon product is ultimately expected to be a depth option at guard for the Saints behind projected starters, Cesar Ruiz and Nick Saldiveri.
New Orleans signed Lemieux (biceps) on Monday, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports. The Giants opted not to hold on to Lemieux after the termination of his rookie contract, but he's now found another chance with the Saints. He's set to compete for a roster spot among an offensive line that underwhelmed in 2023.
