Packers QB Aaron Rodgers has 'green light to do whatever he needs to do'

Sep 03, 2019

“We’ve given [Aaron Rodgers] all the freedom,” HC Matt LaFleur said Monday. “So, if he sees something, he’s got the green light to do whatever he needs to do to get us into a good play. We’re not going to take that from him.”

LaFleur has given Rodgers that authority but he did not say how large the menu was from which Rodgers can choose. Is it one play, two plays, a half dozen or limitless as it seemed to be under former coach Mike McCarthy?

Fantasy Impact:

The story said LeFleur's offense is based around calling one play, with the QB having the option to change to just one other play if he needs to. Based on the quote, it looks like Rodgers could have more freedom than that.

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.
