As expected, Green Bay Packers wide receiver Greg Jennings is inactive for their week 5 game against the Indianapolis Colts with a groin injury. Jennings will miss his second game this season and he has so far been a major disappointment with just 78 yards on 12 catches. Other inactives for Green Bay include running back James Starks and cornerback Davon House.

Fantasy Take: Jennings continued absence will leave the door open for James Jones and Randall Cobb to prove their worth in fantasy leagues this season. Cobb's youth and athleticism is especially enticing for fantasy owners and he had 66 yards receiving last week with Jennings out and he could be a nice sleeper play today against a questionable Colts defense. Jones could also have a nice day and he has three touchdowns already this season.
