Jets will stick with Shonn Greene

Oct 11, 2012

HC Rex Ryan believes that RB Shonn Greene is the still the guy to lead the Jets out of their ground-and-pound funk this season. Gang Green’s typically sound rushing attack ranks 25th in the league (83 yards per game) through the first five games. Only two teams have averaged fewer than the Jets’ 3.2 yards per carry.

Ryan thinks that Greene, who has averaged 2.9 yards per carry, is still the right man for the job.

“Have I lost confidence in Shonn Greene? The answer is no,” Rex Ryan said on Thursday. “I think we keep giving him the ball. He’s working extremely hard. I just think it’s a matter of time before he really starts popping. We all know once he gets rolling, the whole team is lifted when you’re big back is running.”

Fantasy Impact:

The Colts are 30th in RB aFPA, so if ever there was a week for Greene to have a good game, it's this week.

Saints RB Alvin Kamara off injury report ahead of Week 15

yesterday · 4:30 PM EST

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.
