McCoy ready to step in - again

Oct 30, 2009

The Eagles haven't said Brian Westbrook won't play, but he hasn't done anything on the field since sustaining a concussion in the first quarter Monday night against Washington.

"He did better today," coach Andy Reid said of Westbrook in a statement Thursday. "He's feeling a little bit better [Thursday] than [Wednesday] ... We'll add a little bit [today] and see how he does. It's still going to be a game-time decision."

If Westbrook must sit, Lesean Mccoy and first-year pickup Eldra Buckley must carry the rushing load.

If that's the case, the two say bring it on.

"I've been in this situation before," said McCoy, who started against New Orleans and Kansas City in place of Westbrook. "The preparation is a little different, and you have to work on things like pass protection, but I'm kind of in the flow with the offense, so I don't think anything will surprise me."

49ers RB Isaac Guerendo "plans to play" TNF

Adam Schefter

San Francisco 49ers running back Isaac Guerendo plans to play Thursday night against the Los Angeles Rams despite his sprained foot, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Guerendo, who is listed as questionable, insists he "feels good," sources said.

Fantasy Impact:

We're projecting Patrick Taylor as the next man up in the 49ers' version of running back roulette *if* Guerendo is forced out, as he easily has the most familiarity with the team. Abanikanda can be stashed if that's not the case, but shouldn't be in starting consideration if Guerendo does indeed miss Week 15.

Otherwise, consider the fourth-round rookie a fantasy RB2.

Rams are listing WR Demarcus Robinson (shoulder), WR Jordan Whittington (shoulder), and TE Davis Allen (shoulder) as questionable for Thursday night’s game versus the 49ers.

Fantasy Impact:

This doesn't really impact Nacua or Kupp either way, but Atwell could log a little extra work here. Consider him a very deep league WR5.
