Redskins RB Derrius Guice tears ACL

Aug 10, 2018

Updating a previous item, Redskins RB Derrius Guice tore his ACL in Thursday night's preseason game.

Fantasy Impact:

It was originally thought to be a MCL sprain, but if it’s his ACL, it’s terrible news for Guice, who was slated for at least a two-down role for the Redskins. Chris Thompson was already one of our favorite values, especially in PPR formats, but now he should see a few more carries as well. According to beat writer John Keim, Samaje Perine is the “odd man out” meaning that Rob Kelley, Byron Marshall and Kapri Bibbs are all ahead of him in the Washington backfield. The coaching staff has praised Kelley this offseason, so it seems likely that he’ll assume the two-down role now that Guice is out.

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.
