Suisham in danger?

Dec 07, 2009

Shaun Suisham, the most accurate kicker in Redskins history, could be out a job after his 23-yard miss with 1:56 left cost Washington a monumental upset of unbeaten New Orleans on Sunday.

After watching the film of the errrant field goal try that failed to seal the upset, coach Jim Zorn said that Ethan Albright delivered "a decent snap" and Hunter Smith "an excellent hold," but that Shaun Suisham's kick with 1:56 left was "poor."

Therefore, Zorn didn't rule out replacing Suisham, who had made all three of his kicks earlier in the game and was 18-of-20 for the season, if another kicker wows the Redskins during tryouts on Tuesday.

The only kickers who were in the NFL this year and are currently out of work are 39-year-old Jason Elam, the unreliable Mike Nugent, and the inexperienced Shane Andrus and Steve Hauschka.

TE Evan Engram out for the season. Surgery coming on labrum in shoulder.

Related Players: Brenton Strange, Luke Farrell, Josiah Deguara

Fantasy Impact:

Bummer for Engram, who will finish the season as the TE16 with 7.3 half-PPR PPG in nine weeks.

It's unlikely that Strange pops up as a TE streamer through the remainder of the season, with no more byes on the horizon.

Chiefs WR Hollywood Brown's practice window to open "Friday or Monday"

Chiefs WR Hollywood Brown has received final clearance to practice, paving the way for him to play before the regular season ends.

Brown, who is recovering from surgery to repair his SC joint, should have his window opened Friday or Monday. The team will be cautious.

Fantasy Impact:

If Brown were cleared by Week 17, he would be incredibly tough to start in pretty much any sort of fantasy league with Championships on the line. However, he could be an interesting click for Playoff-only leagues if he can ramp up in time.

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker misses second straight practice

For a second straight day today, Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker III didn’t practice due to his calf injury.

Related Players: Zach Charbonnet, Kenny McIntosh

Fantasy Impact:

Looks like things should be cleared out for Charbonnet once again in what could be a very close game against the Packers. If Walker misses Week 15, fire Charbs up as a high-end RB2.
