What happened: New Orleans head coach Kellen Moore addressed offensive tackle Kelvin Banks Jr. on Monday. Banks was ruled out indefinitely after ankle surgery. Recovery could allow a late-season return if rehab progresses.

Why it matters: Losing a starting tackle tests New Orleans depth up front. The Saints must settle the edge rotation during the regular season without Banks. His progress shapes both short-term protection plans and long-term line construction.

What to watch: Watch for rehab updates and who takes first-team reps at tackle in Banks’ place.
