O'Brien on Arian Foster: 'I think we're close'

Sep 28, 2015

Texans coach Bill O’Brien was noncommittal on whether Pro Bowl running back Arian Foster will return Sunday against the Atlanta Falcons, but acknowledged he’s nearing being back after undergoing groin surgery in August.

“I think we’re close,” O’Brien said Monday without offering a prediction on whether Foster will or won’t play.

Fantasy Impact:

Houston travels to Atlanta for an early game so owners will have plenty of notice to adjust lineups if Foster plays, but beware of a reduced workload if he does. Hopefully we have a better idea as the week goes on.

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.
