Team news: New Orleans Saints

Saints RB Alvin Kamara left Sunday’s game against the Buccaneers with an ankle injury.

Kamara was taken down with the controversial hip drop tackle. Kamara finished with 45 yards on ten carries and caught two for four yards as the Saints have been in control all day in Tampa. Jamaal Williams will shoulder the load with Kendre Miller inactive today.

The Dolphins have officially ruled out WR Jaylen Waddle against the Ravens with his high-ankle sprain.

Related Players: Tyreek Hill, Cedrick Wilson, Durham Smythe

With Waddle only logging 17 routes in Week 16, the target share for Tyreek Hill predictably increased, as he turned 14 targets into a 9-99 stat line. Tight end Durham Smythe also saw five targets for the first time since Week 1. Even in a tough matchup against the Ravens, Tyreek is a locked-in top-five option.

Bears practice report:

DNP: Darnell Mooney, Cole Kmet
Limited: Lucas Patrick
Full: Teven Jenkins, Noah Sewell, Equanimeous St. Brown

Related Players: D.J. Moore, Byron Pringle, Dante Pettis, Robert Tonyan

Justin Fields' legs yet again saved a mediocre passing game last week, and it looks like he may have to do without some of his best weapons yet again. D.J. Moore should be peppered with targets upon his return, which will make him a safe WR2 for Championship Week.

No practice today for Jaylen Waddle (ankle) & Raheem Mostert (should be good to go). Tyreek Hill, Austin Jackson did limited practice.

Tua throws looked good after landing on report w/ left thumb.

Robert Hunt, De’Von Achane did team stretch, separate rehab work during practice.

With Waddle only logging 17 routes in Week 16, the target share for Tyreek Hill predictably increased, as he turned 14 targets into a 9-99 stat line. Tight end Durham Smythe also saw five targets for the first time since Week 1. In a tough matchup against the Ravens, Waddle should be considered a lower-end WR2 if he were to go, with Tyreek a locked-in top-five option regardless.

Dolphins HC Mike McDaniel said Jaylen Waddle’s high ankle sprain is not overly severe and he hasn’t been ruled out for Sunday vs. Ravens yet.

“No setbacks” for Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill this week — he will practice today and Mike McDaniel says he feels good about him.

This is a good sign for fantasy managers who had to do without last week. Hill looks like he will return to what will very likely be a shootout with the Cowboys. Waddle is back in the WR2 range after his fantastic 8-142-1 performance during his teammate's absence.

Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill, RB De’Von Achane, CB Xavien Howard, LT Terron Armstead limited in practice returns. RG Robert Hunt & RT Austin Jackson remain out.

The Saints will have WR Chris Olave (ankle) tonight, and young RB Kendre Miller (ankle) is likely to play, as well.

Miller has been out since Week 9, and hadn't seen continuous usage since Week 5 (12-37-0), when Kamara was still serving his suspension. The rookie is a fairly decent stash in very deep leagues, should anything happen to Kamara.

Saints’ HC Dennis Allen said WR Chris Olave will play Thursday night vs. the Rams.

Related Players: Alvin Kamara, Rashid Shaheed, Taysom Hill, Juwan Johnson, A.T. Perry

Olave hasn't had the best connection with QB Derek Carr this season, but he still represents his best option when on the field, and should be considered a WR2 in Week 16. Even with their struggles, the sophomore wide receiver has averaged 14.4 half-PPR points per game over his last five.

New Orleans listed Chris Olave (ankle) as a limited participant for today’s injury report. The Saints conducted a walk-through.

As we reported Monday, Saints head coach Dennis Allen said he expected Olave’s to return to practice “in some form or fashion” on Tuesday. It's a good sign for Olave getting back into action, but keep in mind it's a Thursday game for the Saints this week.
