QB Russell reports as Raiders open minicamp

Apr 30, 2010

JaMarcus Russell showed up at Oakland Raiders minicamp Friday and said he will keep coming to work until he's told not to do so.

Fantasy Impact:

Despite earlier reports that JaMarcus had ballooned up, SI's Jim Trotter tweets that, surprisingly JaMarcus Russell looks as "trim" as he's ever seen him, and is moving well. After acquiring QB Jason Campbell from the Redskins, It's hard for us to imagine a situation where JaMarcus is on the team for week 1. But stranger things have happened in Raiders land.

Many thought the Raiders would not allow Russell to work out with the team, because of the large amount of money the team would owe Russell if he were to get injured during workouts.

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.
