Lil'Jordan Humphrey Fantasy

New Orleans Saints wide receivers Lil'Jordan Humphrey (illness) and Ty Montgomery (back) are both active in Week 17 against the Carolina Panthers. Tre'Quan Smith (chest) was officially ruled out on Friday, but the Saints are also getting Deonte Harris back from a suspension. Expect Harris and Marquez Callaway to be the team's most targeted pass-catchers for the Saints, with Humphrey serving as the No. 3 in this low-volume passing attack. Quarterback Taysom Hill is returning from the COVID-19 list, but he may not have a ton of time to throw with both starting tackles and his starting center out due to COVID and injury. Humphrey and Montgomery should not be in any starting fantasy lineups.

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Tre'Quan Smith (chest) missed practice all week and has been ruled out for Week 17 against the Carolina Panthers. Receivers Lil'Jordan Humphrey (illness) and Ty Montgomery (back) were listed as questionable. Neither Humphrey nor Montgomery were able to practice on Friday, putting their status in question this weekend. The good news for the Saints offense is that Deonte Harris is back from his suspension and the COVID-19 list, so he and Marquez Callaway should serve as the team's top two pass-catchers against the Panthers. Even if Humphrey and Montgomery play, they aren't realistic flex options in this low-volume Saints passing offense with quarterback Taysom Hill running the show.

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Lil'Jordan Humphrey posted three receptions for a season-high 70 yards on five targets in Monday's loss to Miami. Humphrey hasn't been consistent at all this season and hasn't even played in all the games either. With the Saints losing Tre'Quan Smith in the game (chest) and Deonte Harris being suspended, Humphrey stepped up and took some of the receiving load. Nevertheless, the WR's role hasn't been big all season and he's been way too inconsistent to merit any sort of fantasy value in the last couple of weeks.
