Chiefs activate RB Smith, release WR Engram

Nov 07, 2009

he Chiefs activated RB Kolby Smith from the physically unable to perform list Saturday and released veteran WR Bobby Engram.

The activation of Smith, who suffered a season-ending knee injury in Week 9 last season, gives the Chiefs an experienced option in the backfield while Larry Johnson serves a suspension. Smith, a third-year pro, has played in 23 career games, including nine starts, and has more career carries than Jamaal Charles, who’s expected to start in Johnson’s place Sunday against the Jaguars.

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.
