HOU TE Daniles to get MRI

Aug 19, 2010

Texans tight end Owen Daniels said after the morning practice with the Saints that he will undergo an MRI in Houston on Tuesday and visit with Dr. James Andrews in Birmingham, Ala., on Wednesday.

Daniels is hoping to be cleared to start practicing next week.

Daniels, who is on active/PUP, is unable to practice with his teammates. He went through exhausting drills by himself at the Saints practice facility.

Since Daniels suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament in the eight game at Buffalo, the plan has been to try to have him ready for the opening game against Indianapolis.

Fantasy Impact:

This would be a hit to the TE rankings, which are very deep right now. Daniels is coming in at number-nine here at 4for4.

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.
