'Surgery is imminent' for Chiefs RB Spencer Ware, 'done for 2017'

Fantasy Impact:

Against the Bengals, the Chiefs gave Kareem Hunt an extended look with the starters and he impressed, turning 11 touches into 63 yards, including 40 yards on eight carries. Against the Seahawks in the next preseason game, Hunt ran the ball nine times for 39 yards. If HC Andy Reid is to be believed, and he is typically forthcoming about such things, the team will hand the keys to Hunt. He is worthy of a 4th-round pick and more aggressive owners can target him in the 3rd round, where there is a swoon of reliable talent at the receiver and running back positions.

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.
