Deebo Samuel out at least two games, Christian McCaffrey questionable for Monday night

Oct 21, 2023

49ers WR Deebo Samuel (shoulder) is out for Monday's game against the Vikings and at least another game while RB Christian McCaffrey (oblique) is questionable.

Fantasy Impact:

Samuel has a hairline fracture. He will miss at least the next two games against the Vikings and Bengals. The 49ers have their bye in Week 9 so Samuel could potentially return in Week 10 against the Jaguars. McCaffrey, on the other hand, was able to practice in a limited setting Saturday, his first practice of the week. Maybe that's a good sign of him playing, but it feels like a true 50/50. Jordan Mason and Elijah Mitchell are behind McCaffrey. The 49ers will also likely be without star left tackle Trent Williams, as he is listed as doubtful with an ankle injury.

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.
