NOS WR Lil'Jordan Humphrey officially active Sunday; WR Kenny Stills inactive
Lil’Jordan Humphrey is officially active for Sunday’s game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, while Kenny Stills will be inactive. Humphrey should slot in as the third receiver for the Saints behind Tre’Quan Smith and Marquez Callaway but as always with the Saints it will be a little bit of a guessing game to see which receiver actually sees the majority of targets Sunday Night. Smith, Callaway, Humphrey, and Ty Montgomery can all be considered for the showdown slate in a game where the Saints figure to be trailing (currently 11 point underdogs).

The Baltimore running backs will see a slight increase in expected volume due to Jackson’s absence and all pass-catchers should see a slight bump in targets with the Ravens expected to run a more traditional offense. With Ricard out the Ravens will likely forego a fullback.

Marquez Valdes-Scantling is officially active for Sunday’s game against the Baltimore ravens while Equanimeous St. Brown has been listed inactive. MVS will suit up and should remain the second option in the passing game behind Devante Adams. St. Brown was considered doubtful going into this game so his absence comes as no surprise. With St.Brown out, Malike taylor, Juwann Winfree, and Amari Rodgers should compete for snaps at the back end of the depth chart for the Packers.
As reported by: Green Bay Packers DEN RB Javonte Williams and RB Melvin Gordon officially active Sunday
As expected, Javonte Williams and Melvin Gordon both officially active for Sunday’s game against the Cincinnati Bengals. Williams is dealing with a knee injury but should be in line to see his normal amount of touches against a weaker Bengals run defense. The same can be said for Gordon who is dealing with a hand injury. The fact that both backs are active will limit their upside but both are decent plays.

Tony Pollard will be active Sunday but is not expected to be 100% according to Ian Rapoport.

Elliott becomes a slightly better play and can be considered in tournaments.
