Turner's injury could be serious

Nov 16, 2009

An extended loss of running back Michael Turner could handicap the Falcons in their bid for a second consecutive playoff trip.

He had nine rushes for 111 yards with just over nine minutes left in the second quarter before going down.

He left the game after two runs to move the ball down to Carolina's 15 with 9:08 left in the second quarter. On a 10-yard run up the middle, he was tackled by Carolina's Jon Beason and left the game.

He was seen trying to walk for the trainers on the sidelines before leaving the field to go to the locker room.

Turner will have a test on Monday to reveal the extent of the injury.

"I'm assuming that it's a [MRI]," Turner said Sunday of the test. "They are going to let me know more tomorrow. We'll have plenty of time to talk about that."

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.
