Jets WR Eric Decker has shoulder surgery

Nov 15, 2016

Jets wide receiver Eric Decker on Tuesday underwent surgery to repair a torn rotator cuff in his shoulder. The surgery was expected.

This was the second of two recent surgeries for Decker, who had hip surgery Oct. 18. The shoulder injury resulted in Decker being placed on season-ending injured reserve after he played in just three games this season.

When the Jets announced Decker's hip surgery, right after it happened, they said the recovery time would be six months, and that Decker would have shoulder surgery once he was off crutches. The Jets said the shoulder surgery's recovery time would be eight months.

The recovery times will now run concurrently. An eight-month recovery period from the shoulder surgery would run until mid-July, right before training camp begins.

Fantasy Impact:

Jets coach Todd Bowles has said he's not sure if Decker will be ready for the start of the 2017 season, but Decker has insisted he will not miss any game action.

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.
