Chris Thompson sprains back

Oct 18, 2015

Redskins running back Chris Thompson, who was slow to get up after taking a hard fall after leaping in vain for a ball thrown well over his head, was diagnosed with a back sprain. It was a frightening moment in the game, given that the 5-foot-8 Thompson had broken his back while at Florida State. Thompson also had a team-high six catches.

Fantasy Impact:

Reports before the game said Thompson could lead the way on the ground as Matt Jones was scratched. Thompson's value was trending up coming into this contest as he was by far the team's most productive back. Washington hosts Tampa Bay in Week 7 before a Week 8 bye.

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.
