Lemieux (ankle) was designated to return from injured reserve Wednesday, John Hendrix of SI.com reports. New Orleans now has 21 days to activate Lemieux to its active roster before he reverts back to IR. Expect the 27-year-old offensive lineman from Oregon to reclaim the Saints' starting center role once he's returned to the field.

Lemieux (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Monday's game versus Kansas City, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports. Lemieux has been unable to practice all week due to an ankle injury. His next chance at playing will be Week 5 against Tampa Bay on Oct. 13. The Saints signed veteran Connor McGovern from the Jets' practice squad to the active roster Friday, and although he has just two practices under his belt in New Orleans, he'll likely serve as the starting center for Monday's contest.

Lemieux (ankle) played 26 snaps (22 on offense, four on special teams) in the Saints' 16-14 win over the Cardinals on Saturday. Lemieux sat out of multiple practices due to an ankle injury, but he was able to suit up for New Orlean's preseason opener. The 2020 fifth-round guard appeared in four regular-season games (including one start) in 2023 with the Giants, and he's competing for a depth spot on the Saints' offensive line.

Lemieux (biceps) participated in OTAs last week, John Hendrix of SI.com reports. Lemieux missed most of the 2023 campaign with a ruptured biceps, but he was able to take the field last week with his new squad and saw first-team reps during OTAs. Although he could earn a starting role, the Oregon product is ultimately expected to be a depth option at guard for the Saints behind projected starters Cesar Ruiz and Nick Saldiveri.

Lemieux (groin) is active Sunday against Buffalo. Lemieux missed New York's Week 5 contest against Miami with a groin injury, but he was able to log a trio of limited practice sessions this week and will be able to make his return Sunday night. John Michael Schmitz (shoulder) is inactive for the contest, so Lemieux may get some reps at center.
