Kevin Kolb to start at QB for Eagles Week 17

Dec 30, 2010

No big scoop/surprise here, but Eagles QB Michael Vick will not play Sunday against the Cowboys and Kevin Kolb will start, per team sources.

Fantasy Impact:

As the story says, not a real big surprise considering how the Eagles and Vick came out of Week 16 after a loss to Minny. Vick is a bit banged up and continues to take hit after hit whether he stays in the pocket or runs. The Eagles will most likely use Week 17 as their bye week, since they are locked into the 3rd seed win or lose this week. Kolb makes a decent start in Week 17 against a Cowboys secondary that has given up points. Kolb will likely work a lot with Jermone Harrison at RB and Jason Avant and Riley Cooper at WR.

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.
