Jaguars QB Gardner Minshew (thumb) to miss Week 9

Nov 02, 2020

Jacksonville head coach Doug Marrone said today that Gardner Minshew’s thumb injury is going to force him to sit for at least one game.

Related players: Jake Luton, Mike Glennon

Fantasy Impact:

In a bit of a surprise, Marrone said it will be rookie quarterback Luton, not veteran backup Glennon, who works with the first-string offense this week. Luton, who threw 28 touchdown passes and only three interceptions at Oregon State last season, was a sixth-round pick of the Jaguars. Marrone said he thinks it’s time to see what the kid can do, according to the story. It doesn't sound like good news for Minshew and his owners. It may not be a lock Minshew returns to the starting job when healthy.

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.
