Sadly expected, but if you roster Moreau, know that he played 100% of snaps and caught a touchdown when Waller miss one game earlier this season.

Lions RB D'Andre Swift (shoulder) was officially ruled out for Week 13's game against the Minnesota Vikings.

Jamaal Williams will be the lead back for Detroit Sunday, with Jermar Jefferson and Godwin Igwebuike mixing in.

Saints QB Taysom Hill may have torn a tendon in his middle finger on his throwing hand, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. It is a similar injury to what Russell Wilson had.

UPDATE: Hill has a mallet finger according to Adam Schefter of ESPN, but he will not require surgery like Russell Wilson.

Welcome to QB purgatory, New Orleans! There has been zero injury luck for the Saints at the most important position in sports. Hill will try to play but do not be surprised if Siemian finishes the season as their starter.

According to Ian Rapoport on Twitter, New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara has been ruled out for Thursday Night Football against the Dallas Cowboys due to a knee injury.

Alvin Kamara is out for tonight's contest against the Cowboys, putting Mark Ingram back in the reins as the featured back for the Saints. Kamara was able to log a limited practice on Wednesday but did not progress well enough for the team to feel comfortable starting him on a short week. Ingram has proven capable of carrying the load throughout the season and should be in line for a steady diet of touches against the Cowboys regardless of gamescript. Taysom Hill may limit his upside as far as number of carries and goal line opportunities, but the threat of a running quarterback opens up lanes for the running backs more often than not. Ingram is an RB2 with RB1 upside for Week 13.

Raiders TE Darren Waller (back/knee) did not practice Wednesday. Waller is considered week-to-week.

No surprise based on how the Raiders diagnosed Waller's injury. Make sure you have a second tight end if you roster Waller.

Saints QB Taysom Hill has no injury designation and is expected to start for the Saints Thursday night.

Hill appears set to get his chance to right the Saints offense against a beatable Cowboys defense.

Saints RB Alvin Kamara (knee) is questionable for Week 13's game against the Dallas Cowboys. He has missed three straight games.

Related Players: Mark Ingram, Ty Montgomery, Tony Jones Jr.

Ingram is good to go, so it appears the Saints could have their 1-2 combo ready for the Cowboys.

Cowboys WR Cedrick Wilson (ankle) is the only Dallas player ruled out for Week 13's game at the New Orleans Saints.

Tough times for Wilson as his injury and the return of Amari Cooper render him fantasy-irrelevant barring other injuries.
