Siemian takes over for Winston

The 27-year-old was then examined in the medical tent on the touchline. After a few minutes he was led out of the tent supported and driven out of the stadium.

Initially, Winston was still listed as “questionable”, but a little later the Saints announced that the quarterback will definitely not return.

Third-string quarterback Trevor Siemian took over for Winston, as true backup Taysom Hill is out with a concussion he suffered most recently against the Washington football team.
