Carroll: QB Russell Wilson 'a little sore' after Week 2

Sep 19, 2016

Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson spoke optimistically following Sunday’s 9-3 loss to the Los Angeles Rams of being healthier for next Sunday’s game against the 49ers at CenturyLink Field.

Monday, during his weekly radio show on ESPN 710 Seattle, Seahawks coach Pete Carroll said Wilson had a good first step in that regard by coming out of the Rams’ game “a little bit sore” but without any re-injury adding “he was okay coming out.”

Fantasy Impact:

Carroll also said it’s unclear when Wilson will be 100 percent recovered from the sprained right ankle. Carroll said the rehab plan is similar for Wilson this week and that he will likely again do a little less in practice.

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.

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.
