There are some big names questionable heading into Week 5 of the NFL season. With injuries starting to pile up across the league, fans and fantasy football managers alike need to keep a keen eye on the NFL inactives list. Here are the players at risk of missing this week’s game.
Note that we will update this article as NFL teams announce the inactives.
NFL Inactives Week 5
NFL rules state that teams can only have 48 players active or “dress” on game day. With teams usually having between 50-55 players on their roster in any given week, that means they need to name any players that are not part of their game-day 48 as part of their inactive list.
