More on Stafford shoulder situation (not on IR)

Nov 10, 2010

Lions HC Schwartz said if somebody is injured but not on injured reserve -- the subject in this case was kicker Jason Hanson -- it probably means the Lions are expecting him back before the end of the season.

Does that scenario include Matthew Stafford?

"You can read into that however you want to read into it," Schwartz said. "We needed two roster spots and we didn't place (Stafford) on IR with either one of those, including a quarterback we added to the roster."

So the fact that neither Hanson nor Stafford is on injured reserve is a good sign for both?

"You guys are all private detectives, you figure it out," Schwartz said. "Is everybody good? You like that sound bite?"

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.
