New York Giants wide receiver Hakeem Nicks is officially listed as questionable on the team's injury report for Sunday's game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Nicks is dealing with the same foot injury that kept him out for much of the preseason. He missed Wednesday's practice, was a limited participant in Thursday's practice and missed Friday's practice. He played in the season opener against the Dallas Cowboys.

Fantasy Impact: Hakeem Nicks is safe to start in fantasy lineups on Sunday. Aqib Talib will be a tough matchup for him, but he dealt with a tough matchup against the Cowboys as well. He should have things easier in Week 2.
