Bills hope EJ Manuel ready for Week 1

Aug 25, 2013

EJ Manuel is expected to miss the remainder of the preseason , but Bills HC Doug Marrone is holding out hope that the Bills top draft choice can be ready to practice the week leading up to the season opener against New England.

“That’s what I’m hoping for,” said Marrone. “He had the procedure done and he was with us on the field the other day just watching and observing. I think we just have to wait until that period where the doctor looks at him and says, ‘Here’s where we are.’ Because people recover so differently from minor stuff.”

Fantasy Impact:

He almost has to be ready... With Kevin Kolb having a concussion, the Bills would have to turn to either Jeff Tuel or a free agent. Both Matt Leinart and John Beck are expected to workout for the team.

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.
