No big surprises on the inactive lists for Saturday’s NFC wild-card matchup between the New Orleans Saints and Seattle Seahawks.

As announced Friday, the Saints will be without starting safety Malcolm Jenkins because of a knee injury suffered against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 17.

Tight end Jimmy Graham will also miss Saturday’s game due to an ankle injury. Graham, a rookie, emerged as a big part of the Saints’ offense late in the season. He has scored all five of his touchdowns, as well as made 11 of his 31 receptions since Week 15.
