WR Michael Thomas is on the Saints' sideline after being reinstated to PUP from the COVID-19 list. He's wearing gloves and holding a ball. No boot.

#Saints Sean Payton after that ill-advised Jameis Winston TD pass. 😂 pic.twitter.com/fweVRQ4FnC
Quick-hit thoughts/notes around the Patriots and NFL ('Ball magnet' J.C. Jackson has chance to match Mike Haynes' feat from '76; Alvin Kamara on 'cool' Bill Belichick; Mac Jones just one of the guys; why play Matt Judon on special teams?; TB12 return etc.) es.pn/3oaJxMa
Wil Lutz is eligible to come back next week if he's ready.

LB snaps Demario Davis 70 Pete Werner 34 Kaden Elliss 33 Zack Baun 6
Through the first 4 minutes and 30 second of action, the best player on the field attended college at Assumption in Worcester, Mass. Saints PR/WR Deonte Harris. His story, as Matthew Slater said earlier this week, is a reminder that if you can play the NFL will find you.
SACKED! Tanoh Kpassagnon takes down Jones for a 13-yd loss 📺: FOX | #NOvsNE pic.twitter.com/GL7aDxivUX
That was fast. Saints with the pick-6 for a TD by safety Malcolm Jenkins just 9 seconds into the second half.
Terron Armstead's arm was in a heavy wrap and a sling when he left Gillette Stadium. He'll get further tests done tomorrow.
And for those who were worried, C.J. Gardner-Johnson is back on the field.
The fact that Paulson Adebo is holding down this job after the trade for Bradley Roby might be the best development from this draft class so far.
On that deep Play Action pass it looked like #Saints TE Juwan Johnson wasn't going 100% on the route. Would be curious to see if he was pulling up for some reason. Winston didn't look happy with the route after the play.
Buckle up your seat belts, Saints fans. This is what you're going to get with Jameis Winston. In three weeks, we've seen the good, the bad and, just now, the spectacular. Saints take a 14-0 lead on a crazy good pass from Winston to Marquez Callaway in the back of the end zone.
Armstead (elbow injury) return is questionable
— New Orleans Saints (@Saints) September 26, 2021
The New Orleans Saints announced that star left tackle Terron Armstead is questionable to return in Week 3’s game with the New England Patriots after suffering an elbow injury. Running back Tony Jones Jr. collided with him earlier while engaging an opponent in pass protection, and Armstead immediately walked to the locker room accompanied by team medical staff.
In his place the Saints have put backup James Hurst into the game. The Saints have had some minor miscommunications and, while it’s early, things have looked much improved up front over their disastrous game in Week 2. Stay tuned in case Armstead returns to action
Aldrick Rosas is singlehandedly keeping the Patriots in the game. Misses from 52 and 36
Kaden Elliss had the hit that caused the interception and then gets the scoop and score
Despite having a cast on, Marshon Lattimore doesn't seem like he's having any issues catching footballs
If you were listening, Sean Payton told everyone on Wednesday exactly how he was going to win. Then he did it. Sunday's game wasn't pretty, but the Saints showed why you should have confidence in their ability to be a winning team this season. neworleans.football/nothing-about-…
Andrew Dowell with a massive play on the blocked punt. Just earned that roster spot.
Looks like Tre'Quan Smith is on the sideline...just noticed that as the game as almost over, lol.
No surprise, but Lattimore and CJGJ are active Lil'Jordan Humphrey, Albert Huggins, Erik McCoy, Ian Book and Desmond Trufant are inactive.
Saints WR Lil'Jordan Humphrey inactive today as WR Kenny Stills makes his 2021 debut. twitter.com/JohnDeShazier/…
Saints rookie 2nd-round draft choice Pete Werner is starting at LB ahead of Zack Baun. Werner was injured last week.
We'll see what happens, but it might make sense to give Pete Werner the start at WLB. See what you have there.
So Kaden Ellis gets the QB Hit/Pressure to force the bad pass that P.J. Williams intercepted, and then because of his hustle he recovers the ball in the endzone after Williams fumbled it for a #Saints Touchdown? That's a good way to earn more defensive snaps.
Payton Turner has a big brace on his left arm.
Saints LT Terron Armstead walking off the field back to the locker room with medical staff after being looked at briefly on the field. Would obviously be a huge loss, since he's one of the NFL's best at what he does. Veteran backup James Hurst replaces him.
Patriots punt returners warming up: Gunner Olszewski, Kyle Dugger, Jakobi Meyers Kickoff returners warning up: Brandon Bolden, James White, Damien Harris, JJ Taylor
Mac Jones rips off the knee brace, throws it to the side, throws a jump-ball, back-shoulder TD to Kendrick Bourne and the Patriots have life.
The Patriots spent a lot of money on Agholor, Smith, Henry and Bourne, but it's very clear Jakobi Meyers is the best offensive weapon on the team
Patriots injury update: RB James White (hip) is out.
Jonnu Smith's third drop turns into a pick-6. That, following Hunter Henry SPRINTING offside on fourth-and-1 means the Patriots high-priced free agent tight ends are ... not having a terrific day.
Kendrick Bourne just scored a really sweet TD for New England
Mac Jones coming at you, and then the shifty move around Hunter Henry, who had turned back to retrieve something he dropped. pic.twitter.com/Jx5hYlOMy2
Patriots inactives: OT Trent Brown (calf), LB Josh Uche (back), RB Rhamondre Stevenson, TE Devin Asiasi, OLB Ronnie Perkins, CB Shaun Wade. Uche landing on the injury report Friday takes away a top pass-rush option. Trickle-down effect leads to LB Jahlani Tavai elevation from PS
Back-to-back Brandon Bolden runs set up third-and-11 in the red zone for the Patriots. The Saints dropped seven into coverage against four routes that passed the line of scrimmage. Impossible situation for a rookie QB when you're already down 21-3.

No Trent Brown is a big deal. Cam Jordan should have an advantage today going against the backup RT. twitter.com/Patriots/statu…
Matt Judon with another sack. He has 2.5 today.
First look at the offensive line in warmups has Justin Herron as the top right tackle.
Adrian Phillips missed the last 2 practices of the week for the birth of his first child. But he's in the lineup today. He's consistently bee one of the #Patriots better playmakers.

First look at LB Jahlani Tavai (48) here on defense after his practice-squad elevation. Just prior to this, he was also on the punt protection unit.
David Andrews: It's a long season but we're definitely not good enough right now.
Bill Belichick: There's no magic sauce, have to work and get better. wp.me/pbBqYq-c2ml
#Pats went from best defensive DVOA in 2019 to suffering the most COVID opt outs and more in 2020. With the 3rd overall best defense, 2nd pass defense by DVOA & 2019 Defensive POTY Stephon Gilmore's return, 2021 suggests they are back! 🔗 DVOA and more: bit.ly/3u8cklm pic.twitter.com/XsQwCt146B
