Schaub declares himself ready for opener

Sep 10, 2009

After participating in a second consecutive practice, quarterback Matt Schaub is certain that he will be in the starting lineup Sunday when the Texans play the New York Jets at Reliant Stadium.

Schaub suffered a sprained left ankle in the third preseason game against Minnesota and has been undergoing treatment to prepare him for the regular-season opener.

“I'm very confident that I will be,” Schaub said Wednesday about being in the starting lineup. “It's feeling good. It's getting better, just progressing. We're getting excited to go out there and start our season.”

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.

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.
