Jaguars RB Leonard Fournette (hamstring) ruled OUT for Week 5

Oct 03, 2018

Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette has been ruled out for the team's Week 5 matchup versus the Kansas City Chiefs.

Related Players: T.J. Yeldon, Corey Grant

Fantasy Impact:

Yeldon is currently the No. 10 running back in PPR formats and is slated for a big workload against the Chiefs, who are No. 29 in RB aFPA. In the 22 career games where he’s seen at least 13 touches, he has averaged 82 total yards and 0.36 touchdowns, which works out to 14.1 points per game (PPR). In the two games that Fournette has missed altogether, the Jaguars did make an effort to get Corey Grant involved. In Week 2, he turned 10 touches into 69 total yards and in Week 3, he had seven touches for 10 yards. Yeldon handled 12 touches in Week 2 and 13 touches in Week 3. Last week, with Fournette only playing around a third of the snaps, Yeldon saw 21 touches to Grant’s three, so we’re expecting RB1-type numbers from Yeldon against the Chiefs.

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.
