Dec 29, 2008

TSN: Pittsburgh QB Ben Roethlisberger was at the team's practice
on Tuesday, but did not participate in any drills. Roethlisberger
left last Sunday's 31-0 win over Cleveland on a stretcher after
suffering a concussion in the 2nd quarter. Since Pittsburgh has
the week off thanks to the No. 2 seed in the AFC, HC Tomlin might
keep him out of practice on Wednesday and Thursday, also. "He's
doing better," said Tomlin. "He's starting the process of taking
the battery of tests that come after one sustains a concussion. I
don't know where we are in terms of the results of those tests. We
have less urgency this time around, because we don't have a game
this week, quite honestly. We held him out today, like we did with
James Farrior and a lot of veteran players. We're going to proceed
slowly with him because we have that luxury, but we're comfortable
with where he is relative to being ready for our next game."

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.
