Fantasy football is tough enough, but sometimes a player can be unexpectedly declared inactive. In these cases, here's a list of quarterbacks, running backs, wide receivers, and tight ends whose games start later, aren't rostered in more than half of ESPN leagues, and are projected to score at least two PPR points.
