Seahawks QB Russell Wilson not expected to be limited by pectoral injury

Nov 01, 2016

There are many things wrong with the Seahawks offense at the moment.

But according to coach Pete Carroll, quarterback Russell Wilson’s pectoral injury is not among the issues moving forward.

Via Bob Condotta of the Seattle Times, Carroll said the sore pectoral muscle that limited Wilson in practice last week might have limited his ability to throw deep against the Saints, but he didn’t think it would bother him this week.

“I’m fired up to see him come back this week and get back after it,’’ Carroll said.

Fantasy Impact:

Wilson ditched his ankle brace but still has one on his knee, and his injuries are obviously a factor in his and the team’s inability to run. That has led to a tie and a loss their last two games, the story pointed out. The piece added the Seahawks are 29th in points scored (18.7), and just 23rd in yards (339.9). They’ve scored one offensive touchdown in their last nine quarters, and have been held to one touchdown or less in four of their seven games.

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker listed as DNP; RB Zach Carbonnet full

Seahawks listed RB Kenneth Walker III as a Did Not Practice today while RB Zach Charbonnet was upgraded to full practice ahead of Thursday night’s game at Chicago.

Fantasy Impact:

Walker is dealing with an ankle injury and as we get closer to Thursday his status really seems to be in doubt. Charbonnet would be the team's lead back and looks to be good to go despite dealing with an elbow injury. He'd once again be a great option if Walker is unable to go.

Charger RBs Gus Edwards, J.K. Dobbins listed as limited

Gus Edwards is listed as a limited participant due to an ankle injury. Edwards ran 14 times for 68 yards and two touchdowns in last Sunday’s win over the Broncos.

J.K. Dobbins (knee) was also limited in his first appearance on the injury report since being designated for return from injured reserve.

Fantasy Impact:

The story said if Dobbins is going to play against the Patriots, the Chargers will have to activate him by Friday. It could be a tricky situation depending on each back's status. Owners will want to pay close attention to this situation leading up to game time.

Bengals QB Joe Burrow, WR Tee Higgins listed as limited

Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow told reporters on Tuesday that he feels like he’s totally past his right wrist injury, but it still landed him on the team’s injury report.

Burrow was listed as limited due to the wrist and his knee

Wide receiver Tee Higgins (ankle, knee) was listed as limited as well,

Fantasy Impact:

The story said Burrow's injury shouldn’t create much cause for concern about his availability against the Broncos on Saturday since he was listed as limited all of last week before playing without issue in the team’s win over the Browns. Burrow added there are still things he does to help with it but he's pretty much past it. The story added Higgins also played without incident last Sunday after being on the report all week.
