After Bell's big run, Lovie speaks up for Forte

Nov 24, 2009

Running back Kahlil Bell's 72-yard dash Sunday night won't necessarily mean more playing time.

Matt Forte has been struggling, averaging less than 2.9 yards per carry in the six games since the bye, but there are no plans for a shakeup.

''First off, you know Matt did some good things last night,'' coach Lovie Smith said. ''I know his yardage -- the rushing total --didn't say that, but I liked the way he hit the holes.

''You need more than one good running back. We've even played three good running backs around here, so to answer your question, I do see Kahlil continuing to be a part of our offense, and with production like that, why not?''

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.
