Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Roddy White (shoulder) practiced on Friday and is listed as probable for the team's Week 11 game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He was limited in practice on Thursday, but is fully expected to suit up on Sunday. White continues to battle the shoulder injury and a lingering ankle injury.
Roddy White injury update: WR listed as probable, will play for fantasy owners
The Falcons wide receiver is listed as probable and will play in Week 11. We break down the fantasy implications.

Fantasy Impact: In his return to action last week, White disappointed fantasy owners with only one catch for 20 yards. When factoring in both of his injuries, owners may need to get used to the idea that his prime years may be behind him. The 32 year-old wasn’t dropping any monster lines prior to his injury and he hasn’t caught a touchdown all year. White is only averaging 9.9 yards per catch, well below his explosive 13.9 career average.
Tight end Tony Gonzalez is likely heading towards a game-time decision with his toe injury. Without Gonzalez and Julio Jones, it stands to reason that he would be in line for plenty of targets. However, White will likely be on a snap count again as the 2-7 Falcons don't have much to play for. White will likely draw coverage from Darrelle Revis and is a risky WR3 play in Week 11.
