Rapoport: 'Suspension looms' for Vikings RB Adrian Peterson

Nov 06, 2014

NFL says Adrian Peterson can have a hearing prior to issuance of discipline. He’ll remain on the Commissioner’s exempt list until completion.

Peterson will be reviewed under the Personal Conduct Policy. NFL requests He’s asked to submit relevant info & meet with experts.

Adrian Peterson being on paid-leave since his situation arose is not considered discipline, source points out. Suspension looms.

When will the Peterson situation be resolved? Could be weeks. Means playing next week unlikely.

Fantasy Impact:

The league apparently doesn't consider paid leave as a suspension, so Peterson is facing another suspension. Initial domestic violence violations would garner a six-game ban, so if the two sides don't work out a compromise, Peterson could miss the remainder of the season. We would recommending holding Peterson for at least another week to see if any progress is made.

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.
