Mortensen: Miles Austin may be out until Week 6

Sep 19, 2011

Mortensen on RB Felix Jones and WR Miles Austin: "Early word on Cowboys injuries not good. Felix Jones separated shoulder. Miles Austin (3 td) pull hammy again - team worried out thru bye wk"

Fantasy Impact:

The Cowboys have their bye in Week 5, so if Mortensen is correct, the team believes that Austin will not return until Week 6, when they face the Patriots. Austin had 143 yards and three TDs against the 49ers but left the game late in the 4th quarter and could not play in overtime.

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.
