Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette is active for Sunday’s game against the Saints, but New Orleans will not have top back Alvin Kamara for the Week 2 matchup.

Kamara was questionable all week with a rib injury and is inactive.

Quarterback Jameis Winston (back) and running back Mark Ingram (ankle) are expected to be on the field when the Saints host Tampa Bay.

Winston is playing with extra padding to protect four fractures in his back and is in “a lot of pain,” according to a FOX Sports report.

Fournette (hamstring) and wide receiver Mike Evans (calf) are both active for the Bucs. Wideout Julio Jones (knee) and left tackle Donovan Smith (elbow) are out.
