Returner Jones 'expects' to sign

Sep 07, 2009

Mark Jones, who handled punt/kick returns for the Carolina Panthers last season, is at Bank of America Stadium this morning and says he "expects to sign" with the team within the next few hours.

Jones said he's finishing up his physical and expects to be offered a deal contingent on him passing that.

Jones, who signed with the Tennessee Titans in the offseason and was cut by them last week, had been hampered by a hamstring injury in the preseason. He says the injury has healed.

Jones averaged 11.4 yards on 39 punt returns for the Panthers last season and 24.0 yards on kickoffs.

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.
