Leinart to Giants? Forget it

Sep 01, 2010

Tom Coughlin will jump in a hot tub with Tiki Barber before Matt Leinart comes to the Giants to serve as backup quarterback to Eli Manning.

Ignore reports that the Giants have discussed with the Cardinals trading for Leinart. Not happening. Sure, the Giants are searching for a veteran quarterback to possibly sign to serve as Manning's caddy now that Jim Sorgi is gone for the season with a shoulder injury, leaving only Rhett Bomar in reserve. But Leinart, according to those in the know, is not a consideration for the Giants.

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.
