Who should you start? Who should you sit? To help you set your fantasy football lineups and to avoid starting a player who won't be in the lineup, we'll post fantasy-relevant updates and analysis here as NFL teams release their inactives, typically about 90 minutes before kickoff. Any rankings cited in this column come from our ESPN Fantasy staff ranks.

Refresh often for the latest information.

Aaron Jones, RB, GB: Calf -- OUT
Impact: It's Jamaal Williams time once again in Green Bay.

Mason Crosby, K, GB: Calf -- Questionable

Impact: You weren't starting him anyway. Reminder: WR Michael Pittman Jr. returns from IR.

Sammy Watkins, WR, KC: Hamstring -- OUT
Impact: Mecole Hardman versus the Jets? That's a possible flex gamble.
