Jamaal Williams Back for the Saints, Smith and Erving Elevated

The Saints have made a few transactions ahead of Thursday night's game against the Jaguars. Jamaal Williams is officially back for Week 7, and the team elevated Cameron Erving and Jaylon Smith from the practice squad. Tommy Kraemer was also signed to the active roster, while Jordan Mims was waived.

Erving is expected to start at right tackle in place of Ryan Ramczyk, who is out with a concussion. As for the left side, the expectation is that Andrus Peat goes in there, while Max Garcia will get the start again at left guard. The offensive line will be a huge focal point of the game naturally, so we'll see how things hold up.

Getting Jamaal Williams back into the lineup will be a nice shot in the arm for the team. We finally get to see the one-two punch of him and Alvin Kamara, so that will be something to watch for.

Demario Davis is a game-time decision, so we’ll see what Jaylon Smith’s role will be when inactives hit.

New Orleans desperately needs this game tonight, and it feels like they should pull out all of the stops to get a win.
