Joseph Addai (hamstring) has yet to practice this week, according to Rotoworld's Staff. It is unlikely that he will play Sunday night against the Saints in primetime. Expect a heavy dose of Delone Carter and Donald Brown as the Colts look to keep Drew Brees' offense on the sidelines.

Luckily for Addai's fantasy owners, Delone Carter didn't exactly take advantage of the situation, as he has just 22 yards on 12 carries.

With bye weeks continuing this week, it is essential for Addai to get back into the lineup this week for fantasy owners.

Addai was listed as questionable up until Sunday morning when he was ruled inactive, which means there is the potential that he will be good to go this weekend. Addai didn't get any practice time in last week, and he is going to have to practice this week if he wants to see any game action on Sunday.

The Colts face the New Orleans Saints next week, which means there is the potential for him to have a solid fantasy week if he returns to the lineup.

The last update on his long-term injury status had him being out one to three weeks according to ESPN's John Clayton (via Rotoworld).

John Clayton suggested on SportsCenter Monday that Joseph Addai's right hamstring strain could sideline him for 1-3 weeks.

It will be interesting to see if Addai can get back on the football field this week or if he will have to watch from the sidelines again.
