Dolphins RB Arian Foster, WR DeVante Parker expected to play Friday

Aug 16, 2016

The Dolphins are expecting to get their first look at two important skill players in a preseason game Friday at Dallas: RB Arian Foster and WR DeVante Parker.

Fantasy Impact:

Foster signed a one-year deal a month ago and was on the physically unable to perform list the first two days of camp as a precaution as he continues to recover from a torn Achilles’ he suffered against the Dolphins Oct. 25 while playing for Houston. Parker participated in full team drills today. The embattled receiver who’s battled nagging injuries as much as cornerbacks recently, missed about a week of camp with a sore hamstring, the story all said.

Seahawks ruled out RB Kenneth Walker III for Thursday night’s game at Chicago.

Related Players: Zach Charbonnet, Kenny McIntosh

Fantasy Impact:

No mention of Charbonnet here, so we can assume he's in a good place to take a massive workload against a Bears defense that ranks 27th in RB aFPA. Fire up Charbs as an RB2.

The Eagles list QB Jalen Hurts as DNP on their estimated practice report because of a concussion, putting his status for this weekend in doubt.

Related Players: Kenny Pickett

Fantasy Impact:

Things aren't trending well for Hurts, as fantasy managers should be looking for a Championship Week back-up as soon as possible.

Steelers WR George Pickens officially Active for Christmas Day

Chiefs Pro-Bowl DT Chris Jones officially is inactive today vs. the Steelers.

Steelers CB Joey Porter Jr. officially is inactive, WR George Pickens officially active.

Related Players: Calvin Austin III, Van Jefferson, Mike Williams

Fantasy Impact:

The Steelers WR room looks a little more palatable with Pickens in the lineup, but it's still not enough to push Russell Wilson above deep-league SuperFlex territory. Consider Pickens a WR3 for Week 17.
