Packers release RB Knile Davis

Oct 31, 2016

The Green Bay Packers have released RB Knile Davis. The transaction was announced Monday by Executive Vice President, General Manager and Director of Football Operations Ted Thompson.

Related players: Don Jackson, James Starks, Aaron Ripkowski

Fantasy Impact:

So much for Davis taking on a big role in the Packers running game. With Eddie Lacy and James Starks out of commission right now and Ty Montgomery injured last week, Don Jackson and Aaron Ripkowski are the only backs left at the moment. The Pack could make another move for a back before the deadline. Ripkowski had six carries last week and Jackson four, and the two combined for just 44 yards. As for Davis, it's possible he lands back in KC with more issues for Jamaal Charles and Spencer Ware suffering a concussion.

“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.
