Pete Werner (ankle) inactive vs. Buccaneers

New Orleans Saints linebacker Pete Werner is inactive for Monday Night Football against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Fantasy Impact

Werner was back at practice this week, albeit in a limited fashion, so there was some hope that he would be able to make his return tonight. Werner has been an LB1 option when healthy. Kaden Elliss will get another start in his place and offers LB1 upside. Elliss has been an IDP stud with Werner sidelined and should continue to roll on Monday night.
