Report: Drew Brees 'long shot' for Week 4

Sep 27, 2015

According to Ian Rapoport of NFL.com, it doesn't look promising for Saints QB Drew Brees.

"QB Drew Brees: I’m told he’s viewed as a long shot for next week vs. #Cowboys. He’s working hard it, but has a steep climb," Rapoport said via Twitter.

Fantasy Impact:

It's going to just be a wait-and-see type of approach heading into the week, the story said, and that will apply to fantasy owners, too. The Saints host Dallas, but it's the Sunday night game so owners are going to need a backup plan if they want to wait for Brees' availability. Luke McCown played well, completed 31 of 38 passes for 310 yards and one interception, but the offense takes a hit with Brees out of the lineup.

Saints RB Alvin Kamara off injury report ahead of Week 15

Tom Pelissero

yesterday · 4:30 PM EST

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.
