Doug Martin out for year with torn labrum

Oct 20, 2013

Bucs RB Doug Martin suffered a torn labrum yesterday against the Falcons, and is out for the year.

Fantasy Impact:

Reports have been all over the place since last night, but more and more are saying the worst for Martin. Bucs coach Greg Schiano, however, said he doesn't believe the injury is season-ending, but refused to give a timetable for Martain's return. Any missed time is bad news for the Bucs and Martin owners, who likely spent a very early pick in this year's drafts. Martin was only averaging 3.6 yards a carry this season, putting the Bucs 20th in the league in rushing yards. To make things worse, it's a quick turnaround in Week 8 for a Thursday night game hosting the Panthers. Brian Leonard and Mike James will likely get work, but there are some tough matchups the next few weeks that will limit their values.

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.
