Kamara (ankle) is officially questionable for Sunday's game at the Rams, but Saints coach Kellen Moore said Friday that the running back is trending in the right direction, WWLAM's Jeff Nowak reports.

Moore said the same of WR Rashid Shaheed (hip) and CB Alontae Taylor (shoulder), with all three getting 'questionable' designations after limited practice participation this week. Any setbacks for Kamara would lead to more work for Devin Neal, who is alo listed with an ankle injury but seemingly on track to play.

Kamara (ankle) was limited in practice Thursday, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

Kamara has played through the ankle issue the last two games, combining for 17 carries for 49 yards, five catches (on five targets) for 25 yards and no touchdowns. He avoided an injury designation in advance of both contests, so Friday's injury report may clear him for action yet again. Assuming he's available Sunday at the Rams, Kamara will be working with rookie QB Tyler Shough, who is taking over for Spencer Rattler moving forward.

Kamara (ankle) practiced in a limited fashion Wednesday.

The same can be said for the only other RB on the Saints' active roster, Devin Neal, who also is tending to an ankle injury. On a positive note, both players were able to log some on-field work Wednesday and have two more chances to get back to full before the team potentially tags them with designations ahead of Sunday's game at the Rams. Kamara managed 45 yards from scrimmage on a season-low eight touches this past Sunday against the Buccaneers, while Neal didn't earn a carry and hauled in all three targets for 11 yards.

Hunt is expected to experience a bump in snaps and touches Sunday at Buffalo with Isiah Pacheco (knee) unavailable for the contest, ESPN.com reports.

Pacheco was diagnosed with an MCL sprain after he took a hit to the side of his right knee in the fourth quarter of Monday's 28-7 win against the Commanders. He'll miss at least one contest as a result of the injury, and Hunt is the next player up in the Chiefs backfield. Having said that, Hunt has maxed out at 13 carries in a given game this season, while his snap share has topped out at 44 percent. Rookie seventh-round pick Brashard Smith and possibly Elijah Mitchell are candidates to mix in if Kansas City continues to limit Hunt's workload.

Hunt is expected to get most of the carries Sunday at Buffalo in the absence of teammate Isiah Pacheco (knee), ESPN's Nate Taylor reports.

Brashard Smith will have a role, and Elijah Mitchell may even get some work, but Hunt figures to take many/most of the carries that had been going to Pacheco. Adding those on top of the work he already gets -- which includes short-yardage situations -- should put Hunt in a valuable role, projecting for double-digit touches and solid odds to score a touchdown. A huge yardage total is unlikely, but potential TDs offer a path to upside that makes Hunt a sold lineup option for Week 9.

Hunt (ankle/knee) rushed nine times for 40 yards and a touchdown while taking his only reception for a two-yard score in Monday's 28-7 win over Washington.

Hunt overcame a pair of minor injuries and a limited practice week in order to suit up for Monday's primetime tilt. The 29-year-old rewarded steadfast managers with his second multi-score performance this season. Isiah Pacheco (12-58-0) led the team in rushing yards, but Hunt's pair of scores lifted the veteran to the superior fantasy line. With five total touchdowns to Pacheco's one, Hunt should continue being the favored back near the opponent's goal line for Sunday's road tilt against Buffalo.

Daniels will start Sunday's game against the Seahawks,

Daniels (hamstring) practiced fully Wednesday.

Coach Dan Quinn said Wednesday that Daniels (hamstring) will have a full week of practice in advance of Sunday's game against the Seahawks, Tashan Reed of The Washington Post reports.

Johnson didn't take the field in Sunday's 35-25 loss to the Packers.

McLaurin (quadriceps) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Seattle, JP Finlay of NBC Sports Washington reports.

McLaurin said after Monday night's loss to the Chiefs that his quad is "alright," and he'll take it "day by day," Tashan Reed of The Washington Post reports.

McLaurin (quadriceps) is questionable to return to Monday night's game against the Chiefs.

Moore caught one of four targets for 14 yards in Sunday's 40-9 win over the Panthers.

Sanders caught all three of his targets for 19 yards in Sunday's 40-9 loss to the Bills.

Sanders was targeted twice but didn't record a catch in Sunday's 13-6 win over the Jets.
