Giants say RB Saquon Barkley's first practice 'really encouraging'

Aug 10, 2021

"Really encouraging" is how Joe Judge described how Saquon Barkley came out of his first practice.

Fantasy Impact:

Raanan noted the work Barkley did is an extension of his rehab. Raanan added Barkley also won't be participating in 11-on-11 live drills next week in joint practices vs. Cleveland, per Judge. The jury is still out on if Barkley will be ready for Week 1. Barkley has been quoted as saying he really doesn't know his Week 1 status at this point. Other reports have said he'll return by Week 3.

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.
