Le'Ron McClain feels he's been disrespecting his game

Jul 18, 2011

Ravens RB Le'Ron McClain has been working vigorously this offseason in Alabama to show teams that he is capable of being a ball-carrier again. His speed is up and his weight is down.

So if he returns to the Ravens this year, it probably will have to come with assurances that he'll touch the ball more than 49 times like last season.

"I have no problem getting in there and getting dirty because I love contact," McClain said. "I just want to take my game to another level. No disrespect to anybody, not [offensive coordinator] Cam [Cameron], not John Harbaugh, not Ray Rice or Willis [McGahee]. I just don't want to disrespect my game anymore, like I feel like I've done these last two years."

Fantasy Impact:

McClain could be a big time fantasy sleeper this season if he lands in the right situation.

“I will be playing on Sunday. Very excited, can’t pass up playing the Packers. I will be out there for sure.”

George Kittle says he’s good to go for Sunday

Related Players: Eric Saubert

Fantasy Impact:

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
