The New Orleans Saints will once again be without one of their top pass catchers this week. Wide receiver Willie Snead is inactive for Sunday's game against the Green Bay Packers, ESPN's Dianna Russini reported.
Snead, who made his 2017 debut in Week 7, suffered a strained hamstring earlier in the season and appears to have suffered a slight setback. New Orleans worked him back slowly last week and put him on the field for fewer than 30 percent of the snaps, then listed him as questionable this week after three consecutive limited practices. Many expected him to suit up on Sunday, but the early scratch is an indicator there may be some reason for greater concern.
With Snead sidelined, Ted Ginn should become a popular value pick at wide receiver in DFS. Green Bay's secondary is thin at cornerback and have run into trouble on several occasions this season with deep threats. So be sure to get some shares of him on DraftKings and FanDuel, he could help you cash in this week with his big-play ability.
