Saints DT Sedrick Ellis Ruled Out Of Monday Night’s Game Vs The Falcons

Saints defensive tackle Sedrick Ellis has been officially ruled out of Monday night’s game against Atlanta in the Superdome. Linebacker Scott Fujita (calf) is listed as questionable, but he has not practiced for two weeks. Cornerback Tracy Porter (foot) practiced fully on Friday and is listed as probable.
The Saints have not offered a specific timetable on Ellis’ recovery. But Coach Sean Payton said it’s a sprained knee and it’s not as serious as the meniscus tear that sidelined Ellis for three games last year.
“I was encouraged with his first week of rehab,” Payton said. “So hopefully it’s sooner than later.”
Ellis’ absence will mean more snaps for backup tackles Anthony Hargrove and Kendrick Clancy, who returned from his own knee injury two weeks ago.
