Austin looks to be OK after thumb injury

Dec 28, 2009

Miles Austin left FedEx Field with his left thumb wrapped but he said it was more precautionary than anything else.

Austin said he suffered the injury on the last play of the first half. He finished with nine catches for 92 yards and has 74 catches for 1,230 yards on the season. He will find out Tuesday if he has earned his first Pro Bowl appearance.

"It's one of those things where if you get it, you get it," Austin said. "If you don't, you've still got to win games. The Super Bowl is our goal and my goal personally."

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.
