Devin Neal, Devin Neal "Good to Go," Set for Increased Workload in Week 13

New Orleans Saints running back Devin Neal (ankle) will not carry an injury designation into Week 13 and is "good to go" for his team's matchup on Sunday against the Miami Dolphins, per Mike Triplett of New Orleans.Football. Neal was a limited practice participant on both Wednesday and Thursday due to the ankle issue, but was able to log a full session on Friday. With veteran Saints back Alvin Kamara (knee, ankle) officially ruled out for Week 13, Neal could have the chance to lead his team's backfield against Miami. Across seven games played this season, the rookie sixth-rounder has recorded 125 scrimmage yards on 29 touches. Neal did most of his work as a receiver in Week 12 after Kamara was forced to exit the game, hauling in five catches for 43 yards on seven targets. He profiles as a low-end fantasy RB2 in Week 13 against Miami.

Chris Olave, Chris Olave Officially Questionable to Play in Week 13 Due to Back Injury

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave (back) is officially questionable to play in his team's Week 13 matchup against the Miami Dolphins due to a back injury. Olave was a limited practice participant on Friday due to the ailment after being held out of practice completely on Thursday. Across 11 games this season, the 25-year-old has hauled in 69 catches for 734 yards and four touchdowns on 108 targets. If unable to go in Week 13, Saints tight end Juwan Johnson might be the team's leading target earner against Miami, while wide receivers Devaughn Vele and Mason Tipton would likely both see an uptick in playing time. Should Olave be able to play, he's a good bet for double-digit targets and profiles as a must-start fantasy wide receiver in PPR formats.

Alvin Kamara, Alvin Kamara Will Not Play in Week 13

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (ankle, knee) has been ruled out for his team's Week 13 matchup against the Miami Dolphins, per ESPN's Katherine Terrell. Kamara has been managing an ankle issue for much of the season, and he suffered a knee sprain in Week 12 that is expected to cause him to miss some time. However, he's not a candidate to go on Injured Reserve at this time. With Kamara and running back Kendre Miller (knee) sidelined, New Orleans will likely turn to rookie sixth-rounder Devin Neal as its lead back against Miami. Neal has recorded 125 scrimmage yards on 29 touches across seven games played so far this season. The Saints also have former Broncos running back Audric Estime in their backfield mix, and tight end Taysom Hill is always a candidate for some short-yardage rushing work. With Kamara out, Neal profiles as a low-end fantasy RB2 in Week 13.

Chris Olave, Chris Olave Returns to Practice

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave (back) returned to practice on Friday after beginning the week as a limited participant before a DNP on Thursday. While it's worth monitoring the team's injury report to see his exact level of participation, the fact that he was able to return at all is a positive sign for his availability before a Week 13 matchup with the Dolphins. Olave has been one of this season's most unheralded fantasy producers, currently the WR12 in half-PPR formats, and his involvement has not wavered since rookie Tyler Shough took over as the team's starter. In the two games since New Orleans dealt Rashid Shaheed to the Seahawks, Olave has caught 14 of his 21 targets for 174 yards and a score. Miami boasts a top-10 defense against fantasy wide receivers, but if Olave is cleared to play, he remains a locked-in starter and the clear focal point of the Saints offense, especially with Alvin Kamara trending towards missing his first game of the year.

Chris Olave, Chris Olave Misses Thursday's Practice

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave (back) didn't participate in Thursday's practice session, Katherine Terrell of ESPN reports. Head coach Kellen Moore downplayed the injury on Wednesday after Olave practiced in a limited capacity due to back spasms, but there is some concern after he was downgraded to a non-participant on Thursday. Friday will be an important day for fantasy managers to monitor the 25-year-old wideout's status for Week 13 against the Miami Dolphins. If Olave were to miss Sunday's game, tight end Juwan Johnson and wide receiver Devaughn Vele figure to see more opportunities, with Johnson likely to rank as a borderline TE1 for Week 13.
