Chargers QB Justin Herbert (finger) out for Week 15

Dec 11, 2023

Chargers’ QB Justin Herbert is not expected to play Thursday night vs the Raiders due to his fractured right index finger.

Fantasy Impact:

The post went on to say Herbert will be consulting with Dr. Steven Shin to determine the extent of the injury and how much time he will miss, per source. It's quite possible this injury could end Herbert's season, but reports have said Herbert will do anything he can to get back on the field. Owners won't have him on a short week to likely open their playoff schedule however, so a backup plan will be needed. In a pinch, Stick will at least have a talented group of weapons around him, but should probably only be in lineups in deeper leagues, especially if this is a postseason game.

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.

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.
