The New Orleans Saints playoff aspirations are long over and as they enter Week 16, the team's facilities is now turning into a medical ward. Quarterback Drew Brees practiced on a limited basis and plans to play through a torn plantar fascia, tight end Benjamin Watson is questionable with a knee injury and now it appears Marques Colston will not play in Week 16.
Colston has missed practice all week with a chest injury and it was a evident sign he was going to miss Sunday's game. Colston's likely absence opens the door for Brandin Cooks to have an even bigger game against a Jaguars' defense that has allowed 14 receiving touchdowns this season.
If Brees starts, he should be relying heavily on Cooks, potentially looking to him upwards of 12-plus times and is a great fantasy option this week. The injuries are also a fantasy boost for Tim Hightower as he should see 16-plus touches and be more of a focal point of the offense.
