Buccaneers WR Chris Godwin (finger) missed practice again Friday. He's going to miss Week 8, but might be back for Week 9. Scott Miller and Tyler Johnson will have expanded roles against the Giants on Monday night.

Buccaneers WR Scott Miller (hip, groin) took limited practice reps again Friday. Miller should see extra snaps with Chris Godwin sidelined.

Giants WR Sterling Shepard (shoulder, toe) took limited practice reps again Friday. We will get an official designation for Shepard on Saturday but it looks like he'll play.

Saints WR Marquez Callaway (ankle, out) took limited practice reps again Friday and is out for Week 8. Michael Thomas (ankle, hamstring) is also out, and Emmanuel Sanders (COVID IR) is not expected to be cleared by Sunday, so the Saints are down to Tre'Quan Smith and Deonte Harris on the active roster. Austin Carr, Juwan Johnson and Tommylee Lewis are on the practice squad and could be called up. Smith and Harris would be intriguing Sneaky Starts, but the Bears are No. 4 in WR aFPA, so the matchup is brutal (and it's supposed to be windy too).

Buccaneers WR Chris Godwin (finger) missed practice Thursday. He's going to miss Week 8, but might be back for Week 9.

Buccaneers WR Scott Miller (hip, groin) took limited practice reps Thursday. Miller is a Sneaky Start with Chris Godwin out and Antonio Brown not yet eligible to play.

Giants WR Sterling Shepard (shoulder, toe) took limited practice reps Thursday. Shepard should be fine to play against the Bucs.

Saints WR Marquez Callaway (ankle) returned to limited practice reps Thursday after missing Wednesday practice. It puts him on track to play Week 7, though Michael Thomas's return to practice throws some cold water on his Sneaky Start status.

Saints WR Marquez Callaway (ankle) did not practice Wednesday. Callaway has 16 targets in the last two weeks, but was seen limping late in Week 7. With Michael Thomas and Emmanuel Sanders both iffy, Callaway could see a big role if he can get healthy.
