GB: RB Jackson (ankle) worse than thought

Aug 31, 2009

Other Packers injuries: The sprained left ankle that running back Brandon Jackson sustained against the Cardinals was worse than originally thought, meaning he’s unlikely to play on Thursday and could be unavailable for the regular-season opener.

Also, Will Blackmon’s quad contusion is “more serious than we initially thought, so he’s questionable to doubtful I would say for this week against Tennessee,” McCarthy said.

Defensive end Michael Montgomery will need a club-like cast on his broken left hand but is expected to play against the Titans.

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.
