Alvin Kamara To Be A Game-Time Decision Sunday

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (ankle) will be listed as questionable for the Week 18 regular season finale against the visiting Atlanta Falcons, and head coach Dennis Allen said Kamara will be a game-time decision on Sunday. "Alvin is one of the guys so valuable to our team, we'll take it all the way up to game time," Allen said. Kamara sprained his ankle in the Week 17 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and is in danger of sitting out of a must-win game to close out the regular season. The good news is we'll know Sunday morning if he's able to play, and the 28-year-old workhorse back will still be a reliable high-floor DFS RB this weekend if he's active. If he doesn't get the green light, expect Jamaal Williams and Taysom Hill to be the Saints' primary rushing options. In Week 12 against Atlanta, Kamara had 15 carries for 69 yards and four catches for 50 yards.

Kendre Miller Limited Again Thursday

New Orleans Saints rookie running back Kendre Miller (ankle) was a limited participant in practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Miller's rookie season has been derailed by an ankle injury he suffered in Week 9. The 21-year-old hasn't played since, although he's made progress in recent weeks and could in on track to return in the Week 18 regular season finale against the Atlanta Falcons. The Saints might need him behind Jamaal Williams and Taysom Hill, too, if Alvin Kamara (ankle) can't return from an ankle injury of his own that he suffered in the Week 17 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Miller showed some decent pass-catching chops earlier this year when he was healthy, but his role figures to be limited given his extended absence if he returns this weekend, even if Kamara is also inactive.

A.T. Perry Comes Down With Illness

New Orleans Saints rookie wide receiver A.T. Perry (illness) wasn't feeling well on Thursday and was held out of the team's practice. Perry has several days to rest up and get ready for the Week 18 regular season finale on Sunday against the Atlanta Falcons. It's a must-win for the Saints to get into the postseason as well, so Perry will likely do everything in his power to be available for the team. The 24-year-old first-year player hasn't really moved the needle in fantasy all year despite several opportunities for increased targets with some of his teammates injured. All in all, Perry has only nine catches all year for 193 yards and two touchdowns on 15 targets, so he'll be a DFS long shot if he's active in Week 18.

Juwan Johnson Returns To Practice Thursday

New Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson (chest) returned to a limited practice on Thursday after he picked up a DNP on Wednesday. Johnson has another day to get up to speed, but the fact that he was able to return to practice on Thursday is a good sign for his availability in a must-win Week 18 contest against the visiting Atlanta Falcons. His stock as a low-cost DFS play will be on the rise if running back Alvin Kamara (ankle) is unable to play this weekend. The 27-year-old has plenty of bust potential like most of the tight ends in the league, but he's also found the end zone in three straight games and had season-highs in catches (eight), targets (12) and receiving yards (90) in last week's win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. In Week 12 against Atlanta, he had four catches for 45 yards.

Chris Olave Limited During Thursday's Practice

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave (ankle) was a limited participant during Thursday's practice session. This is now back-to-back days that Olave has been limited in practice. Despite that, fantasy managers shouldn't be too concerned heading into the Week 18 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. The Saints are likely just limiting his reps in order to keep Olave fresh and healthy heading into this big game. Olave has been boom-or-bust lately, which makes him a tough player to trust in DFS formats for this weekend.
