Jets RB Dalvin Cook not expected to practice this week

Aug 15, 2023

Running back Dalvin Cook is officially a member of the Jets, but he won't be practicing with them this week.

Head coach Robert Saleh said at a Tuesday press conference that it will be at least a week before Cook joins the team on the practice field. Cook's child is due to be born soon and he is coming off of shoulder surgery this offseason.

Fantasy Impact:

Once Cook is ready to go, Saleh said the team will be working on ways to maximize his contributions as well as those of fellow backs Hall and Carter. Saleh said the team still believes Hall, who was activated from the PUP list Tuesday, will be ready to go in Week One and that he thinks there are many ways Cook can join the team's returning players to put stress on defenses.

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.
