Patriots release Demaryius Thomas

Aug 31, 2019

The Patriots have released WR Demaryius Thomas, per ESPN's Field Yates.

Fantasy Impact:

This is a bit of a surprise move as Thomas had come off the PUP list on August 20 and looked like he was going to make the roster, especially after posting a 7/87/2 line in the preseason finale against the Giants. Perhaps Thomas returns to the Patriots after Week 1, when his salary will not be guaranteed. The Patriots initially kept seven receivers, including undrafted rookies Jakobi Meyers and Gunner Olszewski. Julian Edelman, Phillip Dorsett and Josh Gordon will lead the charge in the wide receiver room.

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.
