Jamaal Charles strains his foot

Aug 12, 2013

I'm told that HC Andy Reid and GM John Dorsey do not believe Chiefs RB Jamaal Charles foot injury is matter of serious concern based on diagnosis.

Update: Per a source with knowledge of the situation, Charles is “fine."

Fantasy Impact:

Charles left practice early on Monday with what's being called a foot strain. Now there are reports calling it a foot sprain, which does open the door to Lisfranc. But, Tuesday a.m. saw Charles walking to practice without pads, but also without anything on his foot, according to beat writers.

Our resident injury expert here at 4for4, Russell Manalastas, said the timetable will vary for Charles depending on severity and location, which are key, of the sprain/strain on the ligament. For now, it looks like he and his fantasy owners, may have dodged a bullet. He's considered a top-four overall pick in drafts this year. We will continue to monitor Charles' situation.

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.
