Brett Favre Should Be Healthy By August

Jun 05, 2010

According to ESPN's Chris Mortensen, the typical recovery time for the type of ankle surgery that Vikings quarterback Brett Favre had is four to eight weeks. That would mean he likely would be ready to go in early August.

Fantasy Impact:

The odds of Favre playing another season remain very high and he's currently ninth in our quarterback rankings. Given his age, you'd need to pair him with another solid quarterback to feel safe, but Favre will likely remain a useful fantasy player in 2010.

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.
