Saints place P.J. Williams (neck) on injured reserve

The New Orleans Saints placed cornerback P.J. Williams (concussion) on injured reserve.

What It Means:

Williams avoided a serious spinal injury, but the Saints aren't taking any chances with him. New Orleans is already one of the worst secondaries in the league, and this loss leaves them even thinner. Undrafted rookie Ken Crawley will replace Williams in base sets.

The Saints' defense allowed Giants' quarterback Eli Manning 4.72 Net Expected Points on 41 passing attempts in Week 2, per numberFire Live.
