Passing game a work in progress for Redskins RB Alfred Morris

Aug 15, 2014

Redskins RB Alfred Morris dropped two passes, the second of which came while being covered by Adam Hayward. Morris had position on Hayward, but couldn’t hold onto the ball. Hayward called out, “You don’t even have to cover this guy. He can’t catch!” Morris got in extra pass-catching work later in practice while the special teams segments were going on.

Fantasy Impact:

Clearly, Morris's hands are still a work in progress. He has been climbing in our rankings since he looks like one of the safer running backs available in the 3rd round, but his upside is limited in PPR formats due to his to-this-point non-existent role in the passing game.

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.
