Bernard Pierce (shoulder) out until training camp

May 18, 2014

Ravens backup running back Bernard Pierce remains out until training camp after undergoing rotator cuff surgery in January on his right shoulder. Harbaugh reiteratated that Pierce isn't going to practice the entire spring.

The Ravens could need Pierce to play a lot early in the season, especially if starter Ray Rice is suspended under the NFL personal-conduct policy because of a domestic violence incident at an Atlantic City casino.

“He’s been allowed to move around a little bit, but we just can’t risk him falling on it right now and getting a setback,” Harbaugh said. “So, you’re probably looking at training camp for him, which shouldn’t be an issue as long as you don’t get a setback.”

Fantasy Impact:

Rice's situation makes Pierce a player to monitor this offseason. Justin Forsett, Lorenzo Taliaferro and Cierre Wood are next up on the depth chart.

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.
