Beat: Stevan Ridley expected to be active Week 14

Dec 07, 2013

While it's not known what kind of role he will be given, barring an overnight change, it is expected that Stevan Ridley will be active for Sunday's game against the Cleveland Browns, according to a source.

The New England Patriots running back has been shrouded in uncertainty since fumbling during a Week 11 win over the Denver Broncos, his fourth fumble of the year and third in three games. Ridley was benched for the remainder of the contest and made inactive for last week's win over the Houston Texans.

Fantasy Impact:

One would think Ridley won't be a fantasy factor against the Browns, but you just never know with New England's running game. Ridley is obviously a huge risk in Week 14, but depending on what we learn from his role, he could end up having value after this week.

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.
