Seahawks RB Ken Walker (ankle) to undergo tests on Monday

Dec 05, 2022

Seahawks RB Ken Walker will have tests today on what coach Pete Carroll called a "jammed" ankle. The injury —the hope is it's not serious— is different from a sprain because the joint jammed down and not one side or the other. Strange injury. Anyway, tests coming.

Related Players: DeeJay Dallas, Tony Jones

Fantasy Impact:

DeeJay Dallas had some good run in Walker's absence but also spent time on the sideline with an ankle injury of his own. At one point, Tony Jones was also in the medical tent after taking a huge hit. The injury bomb has exploded in the Seahawks backfield, and we'll need some more information as the week rolls along, as those three will join Rashaad Penny and Travis Homer as other options who have sustained injuries that have kept them off the field this season.

Raiders RB Alexander Mattison set to return Week 15, Sincere McCormick still starting

Antonio Pierce stated that Sincere McCormick will remain the team’s starting running back even with Alexander Mattison nearing a return this week.

“He deserves it. … He has run his tail off.”

Related Players: Ameer Abdullah

Fantasy Impact:

At 2-11, the Raiders would be silly to not see what they have in McCormick, with 31-year-old Abdullah and Mattison, who is on a one-year contract, only there to give the former UDFA a breather. Consider McCormick a volume-based RB3.

Giants QB Drew Lock in walking boot, Tommy DeVito set to start Week 15

Giants HC Brian Daboll told reporters that QB Drew Lock is in a walking boot due to a heel injury and Tommy DeVito now is expected to start Sunday vs. the Ravens.

Fantasy Impact:

The Ravens path to an overall D/ST1 finish on the week becomes a little clearer. DeVito can safely be kept on benches in SuperFlex leagues on a week with zero byes.

Bills WR Keon Coleman, TE Dalton Kincaid return to practice ahead of Week 15

Good news on the way for Buffalo: Bills WR Keon Coleman (wrist) and TE Dalton Kincaid (knee) are expected to practice fully today. A positive step forward in advance of the showdown with the Lions.

Fantasy Impact:

It's probably still best to start other options over Kincaid, as he takes on a Lions defense that ranks 4th in TE aFPA, but there could be a ton of points here, so if you're in a bind he makes sense as a top-15ish option.

As for Coleman, he's more in the boom/bust WR4 range as Shakir should continue standing atop the target share.
