Bucs WR Williams hurting

Dec 09, 2010

Bucs rookie WR Mike Williams did not practice Thursday due to some knee soreness, though coach Raheem Morris hopes he’ll be ready to go Sunday against the Redskins.

Williams has been Tampa Bay’s top receiver this season with 51 receptions for 769 yards.

"He's got a sore knee, has been fighting through it for a couple weeks," Morris said. "He's a tough guy, he goes out and he plays, right now it's little bit sore, just got to get him to tommorrow, and see what he can do tomorrow. Get him through Saturday, see what he can do Saturday and hopefully get him in the game."

Fantasy Impact:

This could be a little damaging to those counting on Josh Freeman at QB in a great fantasy matchup against a poor Washington secondary. Be sure to monitor Williams the rest of the week.

TE Evan Engram out for the season. Surgery coming on labrum in shoulder.

Related Players: Brenton Strange, Luke Farrell, Josiah Deguara

Fantasy Impact:

Bummer for Engram, who will finish the season as the TE16 with 7.3 half-PPR PPG in nine weeks.

It's unlikely that Strange pops up as a TE streamer through the remainder of the season, with no more byes on the horizon.

Chiefs WR Hollywood Brown's practice window to open "Friday or Monday"

Chiefs WR Hollywood Brown has received final clearance to practice, paving the way for him to play before the regular season ends.

Brown, who is recovering from surgery to repair his SC joint, should have his window opened Friday or Monday. The team will be cautious.

Fantasy Impact:

If Brown were cleared by Week 17, he would be incredibly tough to start in pretty much any sort of fantasy league with Championships on the line. However, he could be an interesting click for Playoff-only leagues if he can ramp up in time.

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker misses second straight practice

For a second straight day today, Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker III didn’t practice due to his calf injury.

Related Players: Zach Charbonnet, Kenny McIntosh

Fantasy Impact:

Looks like things should be cleared out for Charbonnet once again in what could be a very close game against the Packers. If Walker misses Week 15, fire Charbs up as a high-end RB2.
