Texans RB Ben Tate continued to post an impressive yard...

Oct 01, 2013

Texans RB Ben Tate continued to post an impressive yards-per-carry average, picking up 44 yards on just seven carries last week. A late fumble near the Texans’ end zone helped set up the Seahawks’ rally. But HC Gary Kubiak stressed there was no correlation between the turnover and the all-Arian Foster approach toward the end of the game.

“Let me say this: I’ve got total confidence in Ben. I think Ben is playing extremely well,” Kubiak said. “I don’t know if Ben got a carry after the fumble but it was not a reflection of that. I have total confidence in him."

Fantasy Impact:

Foster seems like he's found his form, so its pretty safe to say he'll get a bulk of the workload with Tate mixed in for 12-15 touches while Foster gets 25, the story said. Tate is still a great handcuff for Foster owners and borderline usable in deeper leagues.

Bears RB D'Andre Swift, WR Keenan Allen both Questionable for Week 12

Scott Bair

D'Andre Swift is questionable to play Vikings with a groin injury, though he was limited Thursday and a full participant on Friday.

Keenan Allen is questionable with an ankle injury. He was limited on Friday, his first day on the participation report.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer, D.J. Moore, Rome Odunze

Fantasy Impact:

Separate reports called Swift "very likely" to play, but this is seemingly a new issue for Allen.

If Keenan were to miss Week 12, it would boost the floor of all pass-catchers, namely Moore, Oduzne, and Cole Kmet. Moore + Odunze would sneak closer to WR2 territory than their low-end WR3 designations they have with a healthy Allen.

Chiefs RB Isiah Pacheco officially Out for Week 12

Charles Omenihu (knee) and Isiah Pacheco (ankle) won’t play on Sunday, per Coach Reid.

“Just taking it day-by-day,” Reid added.

Related Players: Samaje Perine

Fantasy Impact:

It was later reported that Pacheco was "healthy enough" but they're hoping to hold him back one more game with a short week coming up. This makes Hunt a volume-based RB2 in Week 12.

Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb returns to Friday practice

CeeDee Lamb practiced today, per Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy. That’s a good sign.

Lamb (back/foot) was limited in a walkthrough on Wednesday and missed practice on Thursday.

Related Players: Jalen Tolbert, KaVontae Turpin, Jalen Brooks, Ryan Flournoy

Fantasy Impact:

Obviously good news for the Cowboys' potential in rolling out an NFL offense in Week 12. The floor is capped for Lamb but we should expect a ton of action funneling his way against the Commanders, which puts him on the WR1/2 fringe.
