Felix Jones: No brace, no problem

Dec 02, 2009

Cowboys running back Felix Jones junked a protective brace on his left knee for the Thanksgiving game against Oakland and produced his best performance since September.

Jones had seven runs for 68 yards. That inlcluded a 46-yard touchdown run. Jones had not had a run of 10-plus yards in his previous three games. His last run of 20-plus yards came in the third game of the season, a win against Carolina. Jones sprained a ligament in the left knee during that game and had lacked explosiveness on his runs.

``I'm very excited to have my health again and be able to play,'' Jones said. ``It was very frustrating.''

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.
