RB Stewart's ankle problem

Jun 05, 2009

Panthers RB Jonathan Stewart had an amazing rookie year. Imagine how well he can play if he ever starts practicing? Stewart hasn't broken a sweat yet this year, with an ill-defined "ankle" problem. This comes after missing minicamp last year after toe surgery, and 2008 OTAs as well. He'd have missed the June work anyway because of the league's archaic rule that prohibits players on quarter system schedules from joining their pro teams until their class graduates, but that's beside the point. Stewart didn't get a full training camp load last year, and it's hard to tell what he'll do anytime soon. He's a special talent, and it'll be interesting to see how much better he gets once he's able to work on his game on the field.

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.
