Maurice Jones Drew - hurts leg

Sep 04, 2009

Jaguars star RB Maurice Drew might not be 100 percent when the season begins after bruising his lower right leg Thursday night against the Redskins.

X-rays were negative, but Jones-Drew was scheduled to have an MRI exam Friday. Although Jones-Drew has been fairly durable in three seasons, he could be slowed heading into the season opener at Indianapolis.

“He had a ‘UFC shot’ to the shin or lower leg and it’s bruised,” Coach Del Rio said. “Maurice was a little frustrated by the hit and he wanted to get his hands on the guy, I can tell you that.”

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.
