No word on Lions' starter at QB after exhibition finale

Sep 04, 2009

The identity of the Lions' starting quarterback is a super-duper secret. Coach Jim Schwartz won't even say whether he has made a decision, let alone announce it.

After the Lions beat Buffalo, 17-6, in the exhibition finale Thursday night, Schwartz was asked whether he knows who his starting quarterback will be in the season-opener Sept. 13 at New Orleans.

"Um ... I don't know," Schwartz said. "I think I'll just keep that to myself."

But he knows, right?

"I'll keep whether I know to myself," Schwartz said. "It doesn't do us any good for us to either announce it or to say we've made a decision or anything like that. We'll make the decision when we feel the time's right, and we'll announce it when we feel the time's right."

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.
