Corey Fuller is getting the nod at wide receiver Sunday against the Saints due to the absence of Calvin Johnson (ankle), the Lions' official site reports.

Fuller is getting the nod at wide receiver Sunday against the Saints, due to the absence of Calvin Johnson (ankle), the Lions' official site reports.

Analysis:

Matthew Stafford has made a concerted effort to involve Fuller in the offense the past two contests, but the second-year wideout has contributed just five catches on nine targets for 39 yards. With the receiving corps devoid of Johnson, Eric Ebron (hamstring), and Joseph Fauria (ankle) in Week 7, Fuller is a decent streaming option in deeper formats.
