Marques Colston injury update: WR expected to be available for fantasy owners

The Saints wide receiver was limited in practice on Friday and is expected to suit up in Week 10. We break down the fantasy implications.

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Marques Colston (knee) got in a limited practice on Friday and is expected to play in the team's Week 10 game against the Dallas Cowboys. Colston was limited in practice throughout the week and will likely not be 100 percent health as he continues to deal with his knee injury that has limited his effectiveness this season.

Fantasy Impact: This has been Colston’s worst fantasy season to date by a wide margin. The combination of his knee issue and him approaching the likely post-prime of his stellar career have Colston on pace for 54 receptions for 684 yards and two touchdowns on the year. Usually a reliable WR2, Colston just hasn’t been able to get in a rhythm. His lone touchdown on the year came in Week 1.

Colston will be a high-risk, low-reward play in Week 10 against the Dallas Cowboys. While one can never count out any receiver with quarterback Drew Brees under center, Colston has given fantasy owners little reason to believe that he will break out of his slump any time soon. Consider him a low-end WR3 play and owners shouldn't high expectations.
