Giants, WR Odell Beckham continue to close in on megadeal

Aug 27, 2018

After more than a year of talk about a holdout, a trade or a franchise tag: Odell Beckham's future with the Giants is nearly settled.

The uncertainty and negotiating ploys are over as the Giants and their star are close to a five-year contract extension that will make him the highest-paid wide receiver in the NFL, according to NFL Network. NJ Advance Media has not confirmed the report.

Fantasy Impact:

The story went on to say Beckham will have either the highest annual salary, topping Antonio Brown of the Steelers ($17 million on a four-year deal)—or the most guaranteed money—topping Mike Evans of the Buccaneers ($55 million). Or both.

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.

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.
