Wendell Smallwood (quad) sits out of practice

Aug 03, 2016

The Eagles thin group of running backs got thinner when rookie fifth-round draft pick Wendell Smallwood sat out Wednesday's practice with a quad injury.

Smallwood suffered the injury during Monday's practice and was still out. According to head coach Doug Pederson it could be a few more days until the former West Virginia back is back.

"He's still a few days away from getting back out there,'' Pederson said after Wednesday's practice at the NovaCare Complex.

Fantasy Impact:

Veteran running back Ryan Mathews remains out as well with an ankle injury suffered the week before camp started. Darren Sproles and Kenjon Barner got most of the work along with Byron Marshall and Cedric O'Neal. It's pretty valuable time Smallwood is missing, especially with Mathews out.

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.
