Report says Giants to cut James Jones

Sep 05, 2015

James Jones demonstrated this preseason he still has something left in the tank, but the veteran wide receiver will not stick around with the Giants.

The team cut Jones on Saturday as it works toward whittling its roster down to 53 men before the NFL's 4 p.m. EST deadline, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

Jones, 31, signed with the Giants early in training camp. The ninth-year receiver was released by the Raiders in May after registering 73 catches for 666 yards and six touchdowns in 2014 for Oakland. His best year came in 2012 with the Packers, when he had 64 catches for 784 yards and a league-leading 14 touchdown catches.

Fantasy Impact:

Of course the bigger news here is Jones' possible landing spot back with the Packers. If that happens, it could once again shake up Green Bay's WR depth chart so it's something to monitor.

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.
