Michael Thomas participating in team drills for first time this year

Aug 06, 2022

Saints WR Michael Thomas took part in team drills Saturday for the first time this year.

Fantasy Impact:

It's been a long time coming for the Saints wide receiver, who didn't play at all in 2021 and a good portion of 2020 with an ankle injury. But Thomas finally looks like he's ready to get back into action and had a catch on his first play of 11-on-11. The Saints have been gradually increasing Thomas' workload and there are still about four weeks until New Orleans' opener September 11 against the Falcons. Thomas is WR31 on Underdog with an ADP of 65. If healthy, Thomas could get back to his old ways. It already seems like Jameis Winston will trust Thomas quite a bit this season, so keep an eye on Thomas the rest of the preseason.

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.
