Bears Beat: RB Jordan Howard 'had a good week of practice' could 'pry some carries' from Jeremy Langford

Sep 23, 2016

It's understandable that the offensive line is going to take some time to come together with the late addition of left guard Josh Sitton and switch of rookie Cody Whitehair to center. But that shouldn't bottle up the ground game when they want to run to the right side. They need to remain committed to the run, and Bears OC Dowell Loggains indicated Jordan Howard has had a good week of practice, perhaps a sign the rookie is ready to pry some carries away from Jeremy Langford.

Fantasy Impact:

Howard looked good in limited work last week and is the likely RB2 heading into Week 3. Langford has been unimpressive (3.0 YPC), so there's a chance Howard can grab the job in the next month or so, despite HC John Fox's reluctance to give heavy snaps to rookies.

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.
