SOURCE: Stafford to start, Calvin Johnson to play

Nov 26, 2009

Greg Bedard of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel is reporting that Matthew Stafford will start for the Detroit Lions and Calvin Johnson will play. This is a shock. More soon.

MLive.com is reporting:

Detroit Lions fans have one more thing to be thankful for during this Thanksgiving holiday: Matthew Stafford will play today.

Though nothing official has been announced, a source close to the team revealed that the rookie quarterback will be under center when the Lions take the field against the Green Bay Packers today.

Stafford, who hurt his left (non-throwing) shoulder while engineering the last-second game-winning drive against Cleveland last Sunday, was listed as doubtful.

Fantasy Impact:

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.
