Panthers Steve L Smith carted off with ankle injury

Oct 03, 2010

The Panthers lost star WR Steve L Smith to an ankle injury Sunday against the Saints, and his return is questionable.

Smith was injured when his left foot was caught underneath a defender at the end of a 5-yard reception.

Smith had to cross the field to get back to the Panthers’ sideline, and he limped severely while walking under his own power. Trainers removed Smith’s left cleat on the training table and appeared to check his foot and ankle before the receiver was carted off the sideline.

Brandon LeFell and David Gettis opened the following drive at receiver for the Panthers.

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.
