Vick to play in first quarter

Aug 27, 2009

Expect to see Michael Vick on the field in the first quarter of Thursday night's preseason game against the Jacksonville Jaguars, according to sources with knowledge of the Eagles' game plan.

Coach Andy Reid does not want Vick -- or Eagles fans -- to wait very long for him to see his first action. Initially, Vick will be used as a quarterback, then in some Wildcat formations.

"Andy wants him to play quarterback -- run around on the field and see how he responds to the speed of the game," said one source who has talked to Vick about Thursday's plans.

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.
