Michael Bush is expected to start Sunday

Oct 08, 2009

Since joining the Raiders two-plus seasons ago after being selected in the fourth round of the 2007 NFL draft, Michael Bush has waited as Lamont Jordan, Justin Fargas and Darren Mcfadden received their opportunity. Now Bush gets to show if he is worthy of being an every-down running back.

"You want to be that man," Bush said.

Bush became that man by virtue of a knee injury sustained by McFadden last Sunday at Houston. Bush is expected to start Sunday against the New York 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.
