Alvin Kamara among a number of stars questionable for Buccaneers-Saints matchup

ï»żAlvin Kamaraï»ż and a host of key players on both the New Orleans Saints and Tampa Bay Buccaneers are listed as questionable ahead of Sunday’s divisional matchup.

Kamara was officially listed as questionable due to a ribs injury. The back missing the past two days of practice after getting a limited session in on Wednesday is a negative track.

To make matters worse for the Saints, Kamara's primary backups, ï»żMark Ingramï»ż (ankle) and ï»żDwayne Washingtonï»ż (hamstring), are also questionable. Both Ingram and Washington were limited all week in practice. Tony Jones Jr. is the only back on the roster not on the injury report.

Quarterback ï»żJameis Winstonï»ż is also listed as questionable due to a back injury, but there's been little indication that the starter wouldn't play this week.

Kamara's status is the key one to keep an eye on for the Saints.

New Orleans also listed cornerback ï»żPaulson Adeboï»ż (ankle) out, and receiver ï»żTre'Quan Smithï»ż (should) and CB ï»żAlontae Taylorï»ż (hip) as questionable.

On the Bucs side, they, too, have a lengthy list of big names listed as questionable.

ï»żMike Evansï»ż (calf), ï»żJulio Jonesï»ż (knee) and ï»żRussell Gageï»ż (hamstring) are listed as questionable to play. All three receivers were on the practice field on a limited basis Friday after missing at least one practice this week. Fellow wideout ï»żBreshad Perrimanï»ż (knee) was also listed as questionable but practiced on a limited basis all week. As expected, wideout ï»żChris Godwinï»ż (hamstring) was ruled out.

Running back ï»żLeonard Fournetteï»ż (hamstring) was also questionable, but he didn't miss a practice all week, getting in three limited sessions. Similarly, offensive tackle ï»żTristan Wirfsï»ż (abdomen) is questionable after a trio of limited practices.

Fellow tackle ï»żDonovan Smithï»ż is listed as doubtful to play due to an elbow injury suffered in Week 1. Corner ï»żZyon McCollumï»ż (hamstring) is also doubtful.

It feels like everyone in this game except 45-year-old ï»żTom Bradyï»ż is listed as at least questionable.
