Steelers WR Sammie Coates has knee scope

Jul 25, 2017

Steelers wide receiver Sammie Coates will miss the start of training camp after undergoing a knee scope last week, a source told ESPN.

Coates, who suffered a knee injury while training in the offseason, is a candidate for the physically unable to perform list but could return in mid-August, depending how the knee heals.

Fantasy Impact:

As the story said, Coates, who trained with longtime NFL receivers coach Jerry Sullivan this summer, hopes to rebound from a difficult 2016 season. Coates posted 421 receiving yards in the first five games, but then injuries to his fingers and groin affected his production. The groin injury required offseason surgery.

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.
