Drew Brees signs five-year deal worth $100 M

Jul 13, 2012

QB Drew Brees and the Saints reach agreement on five-year deal worth $100 M, including $40 M in the first year and $60 M guaranteed in the first three years.

Fantasy Impact:

This is great news for Saints fans and Brees owners alike. We have had Brees ranked as our #3 QB, assuming that he'd eventually report to camp. But it's good that he'll be in camp for its entirety after missing offseason workouts. We are still a bit concerned about Sean Payton's suspension, but that's a minor issue relative to the contract situation. OC Pete Carmichael called the plays after Payton injured his knee and the Saints offense didn't miss a beat.

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.
