Raiders RB Marshawn Lynch could be headed to IR

Oct 19, 2018

Ian Rapoport of NFL.com said, "My understanding is that Injured Reserve is a strong possibility. Not good."

Fantasy Impact:

Well, that escalated quickly. If Lynch misses more than the four weeks we already expected based on an earlier report, that would make Doug Martin a much more attractive pick through the end of the year. Still, Martin is one of the worst running backs in the league, averaging just under three yards per carry over the last three seasons (309 carries). He is more of a RB2/3 than anything, with Jalen Richard an RB3 as the preferred pass-game option.

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.
