Communication problems complicating Seymour situation

Sep 11, 2009

Communication problems appear to be complicating the Richard Seymour situation. According to a source, Seymour wasn't contacted by the Raiders as the trade was being worked out to see what his feeling was about coming to Oakland. Even now, communication among the Raiders, Patriots and Seymour is minimal, the source said.

The Patriots and Raiders have a disagreement over which team should send Seymour a letter ordering him to report. The Patriots' position is that they have traded his contract and it's not their problem. The Raiders' position is that Seymour needs to report to complete the trade. And if you are wondering if the Raiders have offered him more money to come, that hasn't happened yet. If Seymour continues to stay away, the league might have to get involved to sort out the disagreement between the two teams.

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.
