Seattle Post Intelligencer: Seahawks Matt Hasselbeck says that dealing with the
which began in August and never was right for the entire season - will help him
moves forward. "Just even the short time I was doing (the rehab), I felt like I
more velocity on my ball and I was throwing it farther," he said. "And that's wh
hurt." The pain of standing and watching far too much of the team's 4-12 season
greater than anything going on in his back. "I was just very disappointed that I
part of it," Hasselbeck said. "I just feel like I didn't have an opportunity to
season, and I didn't help - I really didn't add anything good to the team's chan
into the playoffs and accomplish some of our goals." His goal next season will b
complete the season. It didn't happen in '08 because: He took a hit and twisted
in the preseason opener, which prompted the medical staff to shut him down until
regular-season opener; his right knee was hyperextended in the Week 5 loss to th
Giants, which led to his missing the next 5 games; and then he was smacked by Co
LB DeMarcus Ware in the Thanksgiving Day loss at Dallas, which ended Hasselbeck'
season. "Sure, you have to think about the future, and Matt is not going to play
Ruskell said. "He is still playing at a high level and he is still our QB, and w
good about that. "At some point, you will have to plan for the future, and we ar
cognitive of that."

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.
