Week 7 could give indication how Broncos handle RBs

Oct 19, 2020

Assuming Melvin Gordon is healthy and able to return Sunday — which also requires an assumption the league does not yet institute any punishment for last week’s DUI arrest — the matchup with the Chiefs could provide the first real look at how those two players will work together.

Related players: Phillip Lindsay

Fantasy Impact:

The Broncos have had Lindsay and Gordon in the backfield together for just one half this season. The story quoted HC Vic Fangio as saying: “We’d go back to the plan we had for the opener,” Fangio said. “We’d use them both and manipulate the situations. There’d also be a chance for both of them to be out there at the same time.” Lindsay returned and rushed for over 100 yards last week against the Patriots with Gordon out of the lineup.

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.
