Oct 25, 2011

Knowshon Moreno was the Broncos' starting tailback the previous two seasons, as well as in the season opener this year. He missed the next two games with a hamstring injury, and by the time he returned, Willis McGahee had earned the No. 1 role.

Moreno has only 17 carries through six games this year for 54 yards. He also has eight catches for 92 yards. He will start in place of the injuryed McGahee.

Fantasy Impact:

Lance Ball is expected to be in the mix as well, and given the team will probably have some scripted run plays for Tim Tebow, it becomes a less-attractive situation.

“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.

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.
