Robert Foster WR | NYG
Bills' Robert Foster: Returns to lineup in Week 8
Foster is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Eagles.
Foster is back in the mix after being inactive last week, but how much action he sees Sunday likely hinges on how well No. 3 wide receiver Duke Williams holds up, given that the latter has been dealing with a shoulder injury.

Braxton Berrios WR | NYG
Jets' Braxton Berrios: All clear Sunday
Berrios (hamstring) is officially active for Sunday's game against Jacksonville.
Berrios was only able to log limited practice time during the week, and was considered questionable to play Sunday. This news confirms his availablity, and Berrios is expected to slot in as the team's punt return man, His return won't effect the offense much, considering he has just three catches this season.

Isaiah McKenzie WR | MIA
Bills' Isaiah McKenzie: Inactive Sunday
McKenzie is inactive for Sunday's game against the Eagles.
While McKenzie will sit this one out, felllow wideout Robert Foster will draw back into Buffalo's lineup Sunday after being a healthy inactive last week.
-
Deon Cain WR | BUF
Colts' Deon Cain: Healthy scratch versus Broncos
Cain (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's contest against the Broncos.
Despite boasting full health, Cain won't factor into Indianapolis' plans on offense Week 8. Over the last five games, the second-year pro has turned 10 targets into just two receptions for 17 yards. His absence could allow Zach Pascal, Chester Rogers and Parris Campbell to see increased offensive snaps.
-
Christian Kirk WR | SF
Cardinals' Christian Kirk: Returns to action Sunday
Kirk (ankle) is listed as active Sunday at New Orleans, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Entering the weekend with yet another "questionable" tag due to a lingering right ankle injury, Kirk will play for the first time since Week 4, as Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported Sunday morning. Kirk's workload is the biggest question mark hanging over his head. With no full practices under his belt, his snap count may be capped to ensure he suffers no in-game setbacks. Having said that, Kirk has a decent chance to make a dent versus a Saints defense that has surrendered 8.5 YPT to wide receivers this season.

Parris Campbell WR | DAL
Colts' Parris Campbell: Returning to action Week 8
Campbell (abdomen) is active for Sunday's game against the Broncos.
Campbell received the green light to return from a three-week absence after he was able to practice on a limited basis Wednesday through Friday. Due to the time Campbell missed, it wouldn't be surprising if the Colts eased the wideout back into the mix Sunday with a more modest snap count. Campbell peaked at a 63-percent snap share the last time he suited up Week 4 versus Oakland, catching five of eight targets for 25 yards in that contest.

Keenan Allen WR | SF
Chargers' Keenan Allen: Suits up Sunday
Allen (hamstring) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Bears.
Allen will give it a go Sunday, but coach Anthony Lynn previously noted that if the wide receiver played this weekend, the team would limit his snaps to a degree. With that in mind, it's no lock that Allen, who is averaging 10 targets per game to date, will see his normal volume, making him a hit-or-miss option in Week 8 fantasy lineups.

Odell Beckham Jr. WR | MIN
Browns' Odell Beckham: Still receiving treatment
Beckham has still been receiving treatment for a sore groin initially injured during training camp, ESPN's Josina Anderson reported on "Fantasy Football Now" on Sunday morning.
Beckham is not on the injury list and hasn't been for most of the season, even though he's been bothered by the issue all season. It's a good illustration that the injury report doesn't thoroughly break down each player's woes in and of itself.
-
Christian Kirk WR | SF
Cardinals' Christian Kirk: In line to return Sunday
Kirk (ankle) is expected to return Sunday at New Orleans, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Sidelined the last three games due to a right ankle injury, Kirk may be on a limited snap count due to his inability to fit in a full practice to date during his recovery. No matter, he should retain his post as one of the Cardinals' starting slot receivers next to Larry Fitzgerald, which translated to 24 catches (on 37 targets) for 242 yards and no touchdowns for Kirk in the first four weeks of the season.

Keenan Allen WR | SF
Chargers' Keenan Allen: True game-time call for Sunday
Allen (hamstring), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bears, is being viewed as a true game-time decision, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Though Adam Schefter of ESPN reported Saturday that Allen wasn't optimistic about his chances of playing in Week 8 after the hamstring injury prevented him from practicing Thursday and Friday, Rapoport's report offers a slightly more positive outlook for the wideout. According to Rapoport, Allen has been walking around well, but the Chargers won't decide on his status until putting their top target through a rigorous pre-game workout. Fortunately, fantasy managers should have other options to pivot to in the event that Allen is ruled out with the Chargers and Bears kicking off at 1 p.m. EDT.
