Colts Addai thinks he'll play

Oct 15, 2010

Some pain remains, but so does Joseph Addai's desire to remain an active part of the Indianapolis Colts offense.

The veteran running back is optimistic he'll be in the lineup Sunday night when the Colts meet the Washington Redskins at FedEx Field. Addai is dealing with a neck injury suffered in the third quarter of last Sunday's 19-9 win over the Kansas City Chiefs.

"What's up?" he asked with a smile Wednesday afternoon as reporters converged at his cubicle in the locker room. "I should be all right. I'm feeling a bit better day by day.

"Hopefully, by Sunday I'll be all the way back."

Addai saw limited work Wednesday but did not practice Thursday. General manager Chris Polian said Addai suffered no skeletal damage to his right shoulder when he was slammed to the ground by Chiefs defensive end Glenn Dorsey.

Raiders RB Alexander Mattison set to return Week 15, Sincere McCormick still starting

Antonio Pierce stated that Sincere McCormick will remain the team’s starting running back even with Alexander Mattison nearing a return this week.

“He deserves it. … He has run his tail off.”

Related Players: Ameer Abdullah

Fantasy Impact:

At 2-11, the Raiders would be silly to not see what they have in McCormick, with 31-year-old Abdullah and Mattison, who is on a one-year contract, only there to give the former UDFA a breather. Consider McCormick a volume-based RB3.

Giants QB Drew Lock in walking boot, Tommy DeVito set to start Week 15

Giants HC Brian Daboll told reporters that QB Drew Lock is in a walking boot due to a heel injury and Tommy DeVito now is expected to start Sunday vs. the Ravens.

Fantasy Impact:

The Ravens path to an overall D/ST1 finish on the week becomes a little clearer. DeVito can safely be kept on benches in SuperFlex leagues on a week with zero byes.

Bills WR Keon Coleman, TE Dalton Kincaid return to practice ahead of Week 15

Good news on the way for Buffalo: Bills WR Keon Coleman (wrist) and TE Dalton Kincaid (knee) are expected to practice fully today. A positive step forward in advance of the showdown with the Lions.

Fantasy Impact:

It's probably still best to start other options over Kincaid, as he takes on a Lions defense that ranks 4th in TE aFPA, but there could be a ton of points here, so if you're in a bind he makes sense as a top-15ish option.

As for Coleman, he's more in the boom/bust WR4 range as Shakir should continue standing atop the target share.
