Jones ready to play, Forsett injures quad

Dec 04, 2009

The Seahawks running back Justin Forsett didn't finish practice and will be listed on the team's injury report as questionable today with a strained quadriceps.

"I think he'll be OK, but I can't tell you for sure yet," coach Jim Mora said.

Forsett said he stopped practicing so as to not further get hurt. "It's just a little tweak. I don't see it keeping me out," he said. He got hurt running the ball.

"When I felt it, I was like, man I should probably tell somebody about this because I didn't want to further injure myself," Forsett said, adding that if it had happened in a game, he'd have tried to play through the pain.

RB Julius Jones practiced fully and was pronounced ready to play Sunday. "We'll see how his conditioning is, that'll be factor," Mora said. But he expects that if Forsett can play, both he and Jones will get a lot of carries as long as the Seahawks are running the ball well.

Cowboys hope to get WR Brandin Cooks (knee) back for Week 12

Calvin Watkins on X

Mike McCarthy said he's hoping Cowboys will get WR Brandin Cooks (knee) back this week.

Fantasy Impact:

Cooper Rush will get the start at QB again against the Commanders in Week 12. CeeDee Lamb led the way with 12 targets vs. the Texans, but it was Luke Schoonmaker, who took over after Jake Ferguson left with a concussion, who had 10 targets which was most behind Lamb. The addition of Cooks should help the Cowboys offense in what is a good matchup against the Commanders defense. For the fantasy world, Rush did end up throwing for 354 yards.

Cowboys will start Cooper Rush at QB in Week 12

Mike McCarthy said Cooper Rush "will be the starter" this week against Washington and a package of plays will be formed for Trey Lance.

Fantasy Impact:

McCarthy came out and said he regrets not giving Lance a chance to run the offense in the loss to the Texans on Monday Night, but even after that the team is going forward with Rush in Week 12 against the Commanders. One would have to assume Rush gets the start the following week as well, which is a short week and a game on Thanksgiving Day game against the Giants.

49ers TE George Kittle (hamstring) 'close' to playing in Week 11

Shanahan said George Kittle was “close” to playing against Seattle and should be able to practice Wednesday.

Fantasy Impact:

It's at least a good sign Kittle is expected to practice Wednesday. The hope is he will be ready to go in Week 12. The 49ers play at the Packers, and it's in the later Sunday window so owners will certainly want to pay attention to what kind of work Kittle can get in this week at practice.
