Chiefs Beat: Knile Davis insurance at RB

Sep 04, 2016

Four’s a crowd at running back for the Chiefs, but keep in mind the Chiefs aren’t confident Jamaal Charles will be ready to play when the regular season begins on Sept. 11 against the San Diego Chargers.

Charcandrick West also didn’t play the final three games because of an injured elbow, though it appears he will be ready to go against the Chargers. Still, the Chiefs might need Knile Davis against the Chargers, and perhaps beyond.

Fantasy Impact:

Davis dropped on the depth chart last year when Charles went down paving the way for Spencer Ware, who should see a bulk of the work of Charles can't go. But Davis could have a role especially with West coming back from an injury. Ware still seems to be the back to own if Charles can't go, however.

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.
