Dolphins likely to start Thigpen after Pennington & Henne injured

Nov 14, 2010

Dolphins third-string quarterback Tyler Thigpen likely will start Thursday night's game against the Chicago Bears after starter Chad Pennington and backup Chad Henne left Sunday's victory over the Tennessee Titans with injuries, a team source told NFL Network's Michael Lombardi.

Multiple sources are reporting that both quarterbacks could be finished for the season.

The Dolphins will almost certainly sign at least one quarterback from free agency or the practice squad to backup Thigpen. Former No. 1 pick Jamarcus Russell is among the names under consideration, the Miami Herald reports.

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.
