Hasselbeck suffers injury versus 49ers

Sep 20, 2009

Seahawks quarterback Matt Hasselbeck was taken to the locker room with a rib injury after taking a hard hit late in the second quarter against the 49ers.

The Seahawks had a 2nd-and-goal at the San Fran four-yard line when Hasselbeck scrambled to the right and dove for the end zone. As Hasselbeck fell short of the goalline, 49ers linebacker Patrick Willis struck him in the back with 26 seconds left until half.

Hasselbeck remained on the ground for several minutes as the trainers attended to him. Hasselbeck showed obvious signs of pain as he made his way to the locker room under his own power.

Backup quarterback Seneca Wallace came into the game and threw a one-yard touchdown pass to Julius Jones on the next play. Wallace took over the QB duties in the second half, as Hasselbeck remained in the locker room.

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.
