Cards think either Drew Stanton or Carson Palmer will play Week 6

Oct 07, 2014

Cards QB Drew Stanton is recovering from a concussion and the nerve issue in Carson Palmer’s shoulder has yet to fully resolve itself, leaving the team with rookie Logan Thomas as their only healthy quarterback. On Monday, coach Bruce Arians said that the team expects one of the veterans to be healthy enough to start this week even if he isn’t sure which one it will be.

“We feel like one of those two will be back,” Arians said, via the Arizona Republic. “If not, then obviously we have to move on to door Number 2 and get somebody in to back up Logan Thomas.”

Fantasy Impact:

The story went on to say that Palmer spent the weekend in Denver seeing a specialist and thinks they may have found something to solve the problem of his shoulder. The story added that he still needs to go through a full practice before Arians will give him the green light to play in a game. There’s no guarantee that will happen given the nature of the injury. It's a very nice matchup against the Redskins defense.

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.
