Cardinal Notes: Wells, Fitz, Doucet

Sep 16, 2010

• Arizona’s Beanie Wells went through a limited workout Wednesday and coach Ken Whisenhunt says the team will “really test” the running back’s injured knee on Thursday.

That could lead to a full practice Friday and make Wells available to play in Sunday’s game at Atlanta.

Wells did not practice all last week and sat out the season opener at St. Louis with a bruised right knee.

• Meanwhile, Arizona receiver Early Doucet was being examined for a sports hernia. If that’s the case, he will have it repaired, Whisenhunt said, and would be sidelined for “a couple of weeks.”

• Wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald again went through a full practice with a brace on his sprained right knee. Fitzgerald was noticeably slowed by the injury against the Rams, but says he expects to be improved against the Falcons.

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.
