Jets QB Sam Darnold thinks he can play Week 5

Oct 05, 2020

Sam Darnold remains optimistic that he’ll be able to play against the Cardinals despite an AC joint sprain in his throwing shoulder suffered in last week’s primetime loss to the Broncos. The Jets third-year quarterback was forced to briefly leave Gang Green’s latest loss after getting slammed to the turf on a sack on the second drive of the game.

Fantasy Impact:

Although Darnold returned and finished the game, he was in plenty of pain the next day. The third-year signal caller said Monday that his shoulder “keeps getting better every day,” but was noncommittal about his availability for practice on Wednesday, the story said.

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.
