Lemieux (knee) is active for Sunday's game against Atlanta.
Lemieux missed the Saints' last four regular-season game due to a knee injury. However, the 2020 fifth-round pick was activated off IR on Saturday and will suit up for Sunday's NFC South clash, though he'll likely serve as the backup center to Connor McGovern with Lucas Patrick (ankle) inactive.
