Shanahan: Trey Lance will play 'situationally' this season

Aug 06, 2021

49ers head coach told reports Friday that rookie QB Trey Lance will play 'situationally.'

"That doesn’t mean he’s go be the starter or anything," Shanahan said. "But he’s going to get plays.”

Fantasy Impact:

Taysom Hill is nodding his head in approval.

Trey Lance is the future for the 49ers, much to Jimmy Garoppolo's chagrin. Lance also has something Jimmy G wishes he had - excellent rushing capabilities. Shanahan also said Lance will get first-team reps so the offensive line can get used to working with him.

What Shanahan did Friday was add gasoline to the Trey Lance fire, and we are here for it.

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.
