Adrian Peterson expected to practice; not Jerick McKinnon

Aug 03, 2016

Coach Mike Zimmer said this morning that he expects running back Adrian Peterson to practice this afternoon. The Vikings will be in pads.

Peterson received an increased number of reps during today’s morning walkthrough, which further suggests that Peterson is ready to roll.

Backup running back Jerick McKinnon, who in the words of Zimmer got a little “twisted” during Monday’s practice, is not expected to practice, according to the coach. McKinnon did not take part in the walkthrough.

Fantasy Impact:

If Peterson does practice, it will be his first full practice since the start of camp. Zimmer said last week that Peterson is dealing with a minor hamstring pull suffered while working out on his own last month, the story said.

Saints RB Alvin Kamara off injury report ahead of Week 15

The Saints officially listed QB Derek Carr (left hand/concussion) as doubtful for Sunday vs. Washington. Jake Haener will make his first NFL start.

RB Alvin Kamara (illness) is off the injury report and good to go.

Related Players: Kendre Miller

Fantasy Impact:

It would have been an easy click for a Kendre Miller week if Kamara were forced to miss, but this puts the kibosh on that. Fire Kamara up as an RB2 this week in a game that may feature him even more than usual with no Carr.

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker Doubtful for Week 15

The Seahawks list RB Kenneth Walker III (calf) as doubtful for Sunday's game.

Related Players: Zach Charbonnet, Kenny McIntosh

Fantasy Impact:

Looks like a clear runway for another Charbonnet week in what should be a tightly contested game against the Packers at home. Fire him up as a fringe RB1/2.
