Rhamondre Stevenson RB | NE
Patriots' Rhamondre Stevenson: Listed questionable for Sunday
Stevenson (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Raiders.
After logging limited practice listings throughout the week, Stevenson gets the dreaded questionable tag headed into Sunday. While the running back said himself that he's ready to play, coach Mike Vrabel refused to commit to Stevenson playing against Las Vegas. TreVeyon Henderson would be set up for a big increase in snaps and touches if Stevenson is unable to play.

Tyler Shough QB | NO
Saints' Tyler Shough: Good to go for Week 5
Shough (left hand) practiced fully Friday and doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game against the Vikings, Emily Leiker of The Minnesota Star Tribune reports.
Shough opened the week with a limited walkthrough Wednesday due to a left hand injury, but he didn't endure any restrictions Thursday and Friday and thus is good to go for Week 5. He currently ranks third in the NFL in passing yards per game with 300.8, which he's supplemented with a 9:3 TD:INT through four contests.

DJ Moore WR | BUF
Bills' DJ Moore: Not spotted at practice Friday
Moore (shoulder) was not on the field for the start of Friday's practice open to the media, Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic reports.
Moore has logged back-to-back DNPs to start Week 5 prep, but he does have an extra day to get ready, with the Bills and Rams not kicking off until Monday night. However, fantasy managers are going to need to have a backup plan in place if Moore doesn't get the green light to play after he aggravated his shoulder injury in last Sunday's loss to the Patriots. Dalton Kincaid, Khalil Shakir, Keon Coleman and Joshua Palmer would all be in line for elevated roles in the passing game if Moore ends up inactive.

Chris Olave WR | NO
Saints' Chris Olave: Good to go Sunday
Olave (foot) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Vikings, Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football reports.
After being limited Thursday due to a foot issue, Olave's full participation Friday clears up his status for Week 5. The NFL's leader in targets (48) has a tough test against Minnesota's aggressive defense, but the Saints can't run the ball and have been forced to dial up the pass at a high clip through four games. Olave is a lock-and-load WR1 every week.

Jordan Addison WR | MIN
Vikings' Jordan Addison: Questionable for Week 5
Addison (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game in New Orleans, Alec Lewis of The Athletic reports.
Addison was held out of Wednesday's practice due to a sore hamstring, but he was a limited participant in his return to drills Thursday and again was spotted on the field Friday before head coach Kevin O'Connell termed both Addison and Justin Jefferson (ankle) questionable for Week 5 action. Both players statuses will receive clarity about 90 minutes before Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff.
-
Alvin Kamara RB | NO
Saints' Alvin Kamara: Questionable for Week 5
Kamara (back) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Vikings, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
Kamara exited last Monday night's game briefly with a knee injury, and he then popped up on this week's injury report with a back issue, getting in limited practices. The veteran doesn't need to practice much in order to play, but if he's not cleared for Sunday, Kendre Miller and CJ Donaldson would be next in line for backfield snaps for New Orleans, as Travis Etienne (hamstring) remains on injured reserve for at least three more weeks.
-
Justin Jefferson WR | MIN
Vikings' Justin Jefferson: Status in question for Week 5
Jefferson (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at New Orleans.
The same can be said for fellow WR Jordan Addison (hamstring). Jefferson himself is looking to miss just one game due to an ankle injury that he picked up in a Week 3 win at Tampa Bay, and his status will be confirmed, one way or another, about 90 minutes before Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff.
-
Chris Olave WR | NO
Saints' Chris Olave: Practicing again Friday
Olave (rest/foot) appeared to be moving well during the part of Friday's practice open to the media, Jeff Nowak of WWL New Orleans reports.
After being rested for Wednesday's walkthrough, Olave was limited at Thursday's session due to a foot injury. His status for Sunday's game against the Vikings may receive some clarity once the Saints post their final Week 5 practice report Friday.

Ashton Jeanty RB | LV
Raiders' Ashton Jeanty: Questionable for Sunday
Jeanty (ankle/foot) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Patriots, with Raiders coach Klint Kubiak saying Friday that the running back will "do his best to go,"Levi Edwards of the Raiders' official site reports.
With Jeanty trending down from full participation Wednesday to limited work Thursday before missing Friday's practice, his availability remains up in the air heading into the weekend. If the Raiders' lead running back is limited or inactive, rookie Mike Washington would be positioned for a large workload. The Raiders and Patriots have a 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff.

Ja'Kobi Lane WR | BAL
Ravens' Ja'Kobi Lane: Making good progress with rehab
Ravens coach Jesse Minter said Friday that Lane (wrist) is "doing really well" and "has put himself in a great position to be ready to roll when the time permits."
Lane is eligible to return from injured reserve for Week 6, and while Minter didn't get into specifics, it does sounds like the rookie wideout is expected back fairly soon. Lane underwent surgery in mid-September after fracturing his wrist in a Week 1 win over the Colts. He played 24 snaps on offense in the first half of that game, catching one of three targets for 11 yards, with a short TD catch called back due to a penalty. Lane could be the team's No. 2 or 3 wide receiver when he returns.
