Michael Thomas injury update: Fantasy status for Saints WR

The Saints made an unexpected change to their injury report on Saturday.

We break down the fantasy implications for wide receiver Michael Thomas

The New Orleans Saints host the Atlanta Falcons in a huge Week 16 matchup, and they might

be a little short-handed.

The Saints announced on Saturday that wide receiver Michael Thomas has been added to

the injury report.

He is listed as questionable with a hamstring injury.

Thomas was not mentioned on the practice participation reports this week.

This suggests the injury happened Friday but they waited until Saturday to see how the

hamstring responded.

Fantasy impact: The Saints and Falcons square off at 1:00 p.m. ET, which means you will

know if he is active before you make any other decisions.

If he is active, the hamstring will be a concern.

However, he is a player that if active, you start.

Thomas got off to an inconsistent start this season, but the past three weeks he has been

on a roll.

If active, you have to play him in your fantasy championship game.

Fantasy football start sit Week 16: What to do with Mark Ingram

Ingram rebounded in Week 15 after struggling against the Falcons.

We break down the fantasy implications for the rematch with Atlanta.

Mark Ingram got back on track in Week 15 after struggling against the Atlanta Falcons the

previous week.

The New Orleans Saints� starting running back rushed 12 times for 74 yards and two

touchdowns.

He also caught five passes on six targets for 77 yards in the win over the New York

Jets.

Ingram was out-touched by teammate Alvin Kamara in the contest for the first time this season

by one catch, but he outperformed the rookie with 62 more total yards in the game.

Like most of the other Saints skill players, Ingram has revenge on the brain for the rematch

with the Falcons at home Sunday.

The Saints� workhorse rushed 12 times for 49 yards and caught four passes for 43 yards

in the Week 14 loss to Atlanta.

The Falcons� defense does a good job of containing the run this season.

Fantasy impact: Ingram and Kamara will be back to their bruising ways Sunday.

The stakes are high for both teams.

The Saints are going to run the ball a lot this game.

The Falcons� defense does well against the run, but it has been burned a handful of times

by elite rushers this season.

Ingram is in that elite class with 11 rushing touchdowns and over 1,000 yards on the ground

this season.

He should definitely be in your finals lineup
