Thursday Night Football, Week 7: Injury-plagued Saints face Broncos

Tonight, NFL Week 7 kicks off with an interconference matchup as the Denver Broncos travel to the Bayou to visit the New Orleans Saints. Denver is off to a 3-3 start due to the strength of its defense, while the Saints are two games under .500 after losing 51-27 to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers last week.

However, the Saints are dealing with a variety of injuries, particularly on offense. Quarterback Derek Carr has been listed as questionable for today's game due to an oblique injury, meaning rookie Spencer Rattler will likely start behind center. Additionally, both of the team's top receivers are out as Chris Olave has a concussion and Rashid Shaheed underwent knee surgery, while tight end/positionless weapon Taysom Hill is also questionable with a hip issue.

These injuries are a large part of the reason the Broncos are the favorites in tonight's game despite being the visiting team. Here's how to tune in for tonight's game.
