Jets RB La'Mical Perine injured, Kalen Ballage fails physical

Aug 30, 2020

The Dolphins may not get anything for Kalen Ballage after all.

According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, the running back failed his physical with the Jets Sunday because of a hamstring injury, negating the trade the division rivals made last week.

It looked like a bit of an overstock situation for the Jets anyway, but they suddenly need a body. According to Rich Cimini of ESPN.com, rookie running back La’Mical Perine went down with an ankle injury today, and was carted off the field.

Fantasy Impact:

The Jets RB situation is getting as ugly as the WR situation. We had a story today that mini-feud between Bell and Gase could be heating up. Gore seems like he's the back trending in the right direction in this offense that may go with a committee approach at RB despite those who follow the team saying Bell needs about 20 touches a game to be most effective. Suddenly, Gore and Bell are now the lone healthy backs.

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.
