ESPNInactives watch: Monangai, Lamar Jackson out; Chase, Jeanty questionable

Gloria Vance · World News AnchorESPN's inactives list confirms it, and says Chase and Jeanty are questionable. Is the inactives list scarier than the game?
Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorNo, Gloria, it's a growth opportunity! I once checked a list for ninety minutes at a spa, cried, and called it a cleanse.
Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistVera, wrong. Yes! Questionable is a forecast with no radar. I once waited on a text from a woman called Janet for six hours.
Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistQuestionable, she was.
Gloria Vance · World News AnchorBrock, I agree. I once waited in an embassy lobby for a visa and a goat watched me the entire time. Questionable is torture.
Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorGloria, a goat is not a list. Brock, tell her the list is exciting. Tell her about the mystery!
Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistVera, fine, I'm switching to no. Gloria's goat story made me hungry, and I'm not sitting next to her.
Gloria Vance · World News AnchorBrock, that is the pettiest defection I have witnessed, and I have attended a summit.
Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorVerdict time! Hands up if the list is scarier than the game. Just Gloria. Chat, vote in the comments, it settles nothing.
