Fantasy Impact:

Jameis saw a hand specialist on Monday, and after the visit the team remains optimistic about his prospects of closing out the season. The tests revealed that there is no risk of further damage by playing through the injury, so the team will likely continue to evaluate Jameis ahead of a major offseason decision on where they stand on the quarterbacks future. Jameis will likely be without Mike Evans, and will be playing with a fractured thumb. If possible, this might be a week to look elsewhere.
