NO: Bell, Moore did not practice Wednesday

Sep 23, 2009

Just like last Wednesday, the Saints had a lengthy injury report coming out of their Week 2 game at Philly. Even quarterback, thanks to a series of hamstring injuries. Drew Brees appeared with a left (non-throwing) shoulder, though he practiced fully and said it’s nothing serious.

Six players did not participate in Wednesday’s practice: tailback Mike Bell (knee), receiver Lance Moore (hamstring), defensive end Bobby McCray (hamstring), defensive tackle Kendrick Clancy (knee), offensive tackle Jammal Brown (hip) and tight end Darnell Dinkins (foot).

Two players were limited in Wednesday’s practice – defensive end Charles Grant (hamstring) and linebacker Jo-Lonn Dunbar (hamstring).

Five players practiced fully – Brees, offensive tackle Jermon Bushrod (knee), tight end Jeremy Shockey (ankle), tailback Pierre Thomas (knee) and safety Roman Harper (hamstring).

“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.

Bears RB D'Andre Swift misses Wednesday practice

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.
