Michael Crabtree cleared to practice

Nov 05, 2013

The San Francisco 49ers will have Michael Crabtree at practice for the first time in 2013.

The fifth-year wideout has been cleared to practice with the 49ers as of Tuesday.

Crabtree suffered a torn Achilles during Organized Team Activities and is now able to join his teammates as they prepare for a Nov. 10 home game against the Carolina Panthers.

Fantasy Impact:

The story points out that Crabtree’s return could happen as early as mid-to-late November, according to the team. He now has a 21-day period to practice, allowing the 49ers to determine when he will be activated off the team’s Reserve/Physically Unable to Perform list. The team is about to get Mario Manningham back, and the addition of Crabtree later this month would be a huge boost for QB Colin Kaepernick.

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.
