The 1 p.m. inactive lists are in, and the two questionables that actually mattered went in opposite directions.

• Alvin Kamara is inactive against Detroit. The MCL sprain that kept him limited all week costs him the opener, exactly as Saturday’s CJ Donaldson elevation suggested. Start Travis Etienne Jr. as a high-end RB2 — he has the backfield apart from Kendre Miller. Hold Kamara rather than dropping him; the knee is running two weeks ahead of schedule and Week 2 is live.
• Rome Odunze is active for Chicago despite never reaching a full practice on the calf. Put him back in your flex, but start him behind any healthy WR3 you own — the Bears kept Kaden Davis dressed, which points at a snap cap. Move Luther Burden III back down to a flex.
• Ty Johnson is inactive for Buffalo with a hamstring strain, with Frank Gore Jr. promoted in his place. Leave both on waivers; this is a small bump to the Buffalo starter’s receiving floor and nothing more.
• Everyone else checked in clean. Jakobi Meyers (thumb), LeQuint Allen Jr. (hip), Khalil Shakir, Keon Coleman and Sam LaPorta are all active. Start them as drafted.
• Formally inactive as expected: Sean Tucker, Jalen McMillan and Michael Penix Jr. Drop Tucker and McMillan outside 14-team leagues; Cooper Rush is the Atlanta quarterback to own.

Still open today: Jeremiyah Love and Ashton Jeanty when the 4 p.m. lists post around 2:35 PM ET, then Malik Nabers around 6:50 PM ET ahead of Sunday night in Dallas. See the full injury board here.
