Colin Kaepernick given OK to participate in camp

Jul 26, 2016

Colin Kaepernick got the green light Tuesday from his personal physician to fully participate in 49ers training camp, which opens Saturday with quite the compelling quarterback competition.

Kaepernick was limited throughout the offseason program following multiple surgeries since November, on his left shoulder, left knee and right thumb. Dr. Peter Millett, of The Steadman Clinic in Colorado, performed those surgeries and the most recent exam.

Fantasy Impact:

The story went on to say entering his sixth season, Kaepernick is vying to reclaim the coveted job that Blaine Gabbert assumed at midseason last year. It's now unlikely the 49ers would place Kaepernick on the physically-unable-to-perform list to open camp, seeing how they asked for Millett's opinion and clearance, a league source said.

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.
