Denver CB Champ Bailey Wants To Stay In Denver

Jun 12, 2010

Denver cornerback Champ Bailey will be turning 32, but retirement and life after football aren't crossing his mind. His contract is up at the end of the season, but according to ESPN, he wants to stay in Denver and play "at least" five more years.

Bailey and the Broncos haven't engaged in significant talks yet, but most of Denver's energy right now is being spent on trying to ink linebacker Elvis Dumervil to a long-term deal, a process that's been moving slowly.

"If Elvis isn’t getting a new deal now, no one is," Bailey said with a laugh. "I can wait my turn. I will play out this year the same way I always do."

Fantasy Impact:

Bailey is one of the best cornerbacks in the league, but what he's done in Denver is truly amazing. Josh McDaniels has come to the Mile High City and sent Jay Cutler and Brandon Marshall packing, but he's kept Bailey. If you can impress McDaniels, the world is your oyster. Seriously, while Bailey is great, his presence is not enough to make the Broncos a desirable fantasy defense, as they are at 20 in 4for4's current rankings.

Chiefs WR Hollywood Brown's practice window to open "Friday or Monday"

Chiefs WR Hollywood Brown has received final clearance to practice, paving the way for him to play before the regular season ends.

Brown, who is recovering from surgery to repair his SC joint, should have his window opened Friday or Monday. The team will be cautious.

Fantasy Impact:

If Brown were cleared by Week 17, he would be incredibly tough to start in pretty much any sort of fantasy league with Championships on the line. However, he could be an interesting click for Playoff-only leagues if he can ramp up in time.

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker misses second straight practice

For a second straight day today, Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker III didn’t practice due to his calf injury.

Related Players: Zach Charbonnet, Kenny McIntosh

Fantasy Impact:

Looks like things should be cleared out for Charbonnet once again in what could be a very close game against the Packers. If Walker misses Week 15, fire Charbs up as a high-end RB2.

49ers RB Isaac Guerendo, Nick Bosa, and Dre Greenlaw active for Week 15

In Week 15, the red and gold have defensive lineman Nick Bosa and linebacker Dre Greenlaw active and ready for the team's second meeting with their NFC West rival, the Los Angeles Rams.

On the other side of the ball, the 49ers will have rookie running back Isaac Guerendo available against the Rams. He was listed as questionable on Wednesday on account of a foot sprain but was given the green light to play ahead of "Thursday Night Football."

Fantasy Impact:

We do expect Guerendo to handle the majority workload for TNF, but you do have to wonder if he gets the same type of workload he would have, had he avoided the injury report all week. Consider him closer to an RB3 than a locked-in RB2 he otherwise would have been.
