Bengals TE Tyler Eifert helping in red zone

Nov 07, 2016

Sure, the Bengals ended the first half of the season in a tie that A.J. Green described as a 'blah' feeling, but they do have one reason to be optimistic. After falling to last place in red-zone efficiency, the Bengals now rank 18th in the league.

Could that move be attributed to the return of Pro Bowl tight end Tyler Eifert? It certainly doesn't hurt.

Fantasy Impact:

The Bengals scored a touchdown on all four of their red-zone possessions. Green, who has had two consecutive games of at least 120 receiving yards, noticed teams have been devoting less safety help his way now that they also have to account for Eifert. Perhaps that trend will continue against the Giants, who rank 25th in passing defense, allowing 277 passing yards-per-game.

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.
