Arians: Cardinals RB Andre Ellington has 'severe' hip-pointer, game-time decision

Dec 03, 2014

Cardinals beat writer Alex Marvez: RB Andre Ellington has "severe" hip-pointer, per HC Bruce Arians. Probably won't practice this week. The team hopes he can go against the Chiefs, but he will be a game-day decision.

Darren Urban of AZCardinals.com reports that "Marion Grice likely will be the first one in if Ellington cannot play, but Stepfan Taylor and Robert Hughes will be in the mix, Arians said."

Fantasy Impact:

It's generally not a good sign if the head coach is talking about a game-time decision as early as Tuesday. Grice would be a decent desperation start against a mediocre Chiefs rush defense, but he's not likely to see a huge workload with Taylor, Hughes and possibly Michael Bush in the mix. Complicating matters, the Cardinals play in the late round of games on Sunday. Hopefully, we'll have some clarity on the situation by Saturday, but owners should not plan on having Ellington available in Week 14.

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.
