Skins get good news on RB Rob Kelley, TE Jordan Reed

Sep 18, 2017

Jay Gruden offered good news on the Washington injury front Monday: Running back Rob Kelley and tight end Jordan Reed are day to day.

Washington feared a fractured rib for Kelley, who left Sunday’s game in the second quarter and didn’t return. Further testing revealed a rib cartilage injury, Gruden said via the team’s Twitter account.

Reed has a chest sternum contusion. He played 40 of 71 plays, returning for the final drive after sitting out much of the second half.

Related players: Samaje Perine, Vernon Davis

Fantasy Impact:

Perine did pretty well filling in after Kelley went down and would look to be a good handcuff option at this point for Kelley owners. Davis would see more time if Reed can't go and proved last year to at least be a solid option. We'll know more about both players Wednesday.

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.

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.
