Hurst (groin) is listed as questionable for Sunday's 4:05 p.m. ET game against the Saints after logging limited practices Thursday and Friday.
Fellow TE Will Dissly (shoulder) also is listed as questionable after returning to a limited practice Friday. In the event that Dissly is sidelined and Hurst, who missed Monday's loss to the Cardinals, is active, Hurst could yield a degree of deep-league utility, but if both players are available, Hurst would be a speculative Week 8 lineup option.
