Harvin misses practice with illness

Sep 25, 2009

Vikings wide receiver Percy Harvin was absent from practice Thursday because of an illness.

Coach Brad Childress did not give any specifics on Harvin's situation, saying, "I'm not an epidemiologist," when asked if the Vikings feared the rookie might have symptoms of the H1N1 virus. Given the concerns about keeping those who are sick away from others, it would not come as a surprise that the team would send Harvin home.

His availability for Sunday's game against San Francisco will become more clear today when the Vikings issue their final injury report of the week and list players as probable, questionable, doubtful and out.

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.
