Browns to stick with QB DeShone Kizer

Dec 18, 2017

DeShone Kizer will remain the Browns’ starting quarterback.

Coach Hue Jackson said the rookie will start in Chicago after Sunday’s 27-10 loss to the Ravens, a game in which Kizer struggled with inaccuracy and turnovers.

“I think he’s up to the challenge,” Jackson said Monday. “He has some improving to do.”

Fantasy Impact:

Kizer, who has had a rollercoaster first NFL season, completed 20-of-37 passes for 146 yards and two interceptions against a Baltimore defense that came after him all afternoon. He was also strip-sacked on the Browns’ 1-yard line for a touchdown in the third quarter, the story said. After the game, Jackson intimated he’d need to further evaluate Kizer’s performance and decide whether it was best to sit the youngster for the final two weeks of the season. But as the Browns continue searching for their first win, Jackson said the rookie gives them their best chance at doing so.

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.
