Source: Palmer out vs. Rams, maybe preseason

Aug 26, 2009

Bengals starting QB Carson Palmer (ankle) will miss his second straight preseason game Thursday night against the St. Louis Rams, a source tells the AFC North blog.

The source also added that the team may also take extreme caution with Palmer's sprained ankle and is contemplating sitting him for the remainder of the preseason. Much of it will depend on how the ankle responds leading up to next week's exhibition game Sept. 3 against the Colts.

Palmer has missed a lot of practice time since suffering the injury Aug. 14 against the Saints. The QB did some light throwing in practice this week but didn't participate in team drills.

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.
