O'Brien: Duke Johnson "trending in right direction" for Sunday's game

Sep 18, 2020

Texans head coach Bill O'Brien said RB Duke Johnson (ankle) is “trending in the right direction” to play on Sunday against the Ravens, according to Sarah Barshop of ESPN.

Fantasy Impact:

Johnson suffered a sprained ankle during last Thursday's season-opening loss to the Chiefs, a game in which he did not return to once injured. He was not effective with his limited touches and would have to play exceptionally well (if healthy) to warrant more touches as the backup RB to David Johnson.

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.
