BAL: TE Smith has a chance to play Sunday

Sep 19, 2009

Ravens coach John Harbaugh said today that tight end L.J. John Smith, out since early August with a hamstring injury, has a chance to play Sunday in San Diego.

Smith said he was "pretty close" to being game-ready, and that he has been running for about a week. He practiced today before the team was to fly to the West Coast and said he did well.

"I've got to go out and play game-tempo," he said.

Asked if he showed he could do that on Friday, he said, "I think so."

Smith was inactive for the opener against Kansas City.

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.
