Belichick: Damien Harris 'can compete for top role'

Jul 29, 2021

Bill Belichick notes this morning that Damien Harris is in a different spot this year compared to last year. Can compete for the top role now. Kind of a rare admission from Belichick. Indication of how Harris is viewed in the building.

Fantasy Impact:

Damien Harris' stock has been slowly rising this summer, as he went from RB32 off boards in Underdog drafts in June to his recent spot at RB29 with an ADP of 85.2. Bill Belichick rarely gives much away and it's tough to take what he says too seriously, but Harris is in a great spot to lead the Patriots in carries in 2021 with a fantasy RB2 potential. The 24-year old is 4for4's 30th ranked RB in half-PPR formats.

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.
