George Kittle on the side at practice Thursday
George Kittle was doing individual drills on the side at practice Thursday.
Fantasy Impact
Kittle was seen doing individual drills at practice on Thursday after reports that he wouldn’t be practicing all week. This is a promising sign that he’ll be 100% healthy for the start of the season, but fantasy managers shouldn’t expect him to return to practice at full capacity for the next few days.

Saints RB Kendre Miller (hamstring) did not practice Thursday.
Fantasy Impact
The Saints’ rookie running back is dealing with a hamstring injury and currently has no timetable to return to practice. Fantasy managers should expect Jamaal Williams to get the start in Week 1 if Miller is unable to suit up.
