Coach Mora expects RB Forsett's role to expand

Dec 12, 2009

Coach Jim Mora said he expects running back Justin Forsett's role to expand Sunday against the Houston Texans.

"Are we going to see more of Justin?" Mora asked. "The answer is yes, absolutely. He's not limited. He had a good week of practice, and he didn't have any setbacks. And we like the things that he has been doing. And we want to increase his role."

Forsett rushed for more than 120 yards in two of Seattle's last three games in November, but he suffered a strained quadriceps in practice two days before Seattle played San Francisco. That injury partly explained why he carried only five times (for 9 yards) against the 49ers. He did catch a 8-yard touchdown pass, though, scoring for the fifth time in four games.

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.
