Bears officially name Mitch Trubisky starting QB

Sep 06, 2020

Few were betting on Mitch Trubisky to win the starting job after the Bears traded for Nick Foles in March. The Bears, though, are betting on Trubisky.

They made official what leaked Friday, with coach Matt Nagy announcing that “Mitchell Trubisky is our starting quarterback.” The Bears posted it on social media Sunday, a week before the season opener.

Fantasy Impact:

Trubisky could have a short leash, but for now will start for the Bears over Foles. The Bears declined his fifth-year option, so Trubisky is entering the final season of his rookie deal.

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.
