Vince Young is likely to play Sunday

Dec 17, 2009

Indications are that Vince Young will eventually get the thumbs-up to play Sunday against the Dolphins.

Young didn't practice Wednesday, but there was optimism about his recovery. He said the hamstring "feels way better" than it did earlier this week and he hopes to play.

"I want to play, definitely I want to play,'' Young said. "I am taking it easy just to be on the safe side. But at the same time I will be out there, hopefully I'll be out there. … I am a quick healer. I just feel good about the situation.''

According to running back Chris Johnson, Young made up his mind.

"He told me he was going to play,'' Johnson said. "So I expect him to be out there. … I don't think he would lie to me."

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.
