Alvin Kamara Looking to Find Endzone Again in Week 2

Saturday, September 13, 1:32 AM

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara rushed 11 times for 45 yards and one touchdown in Week 1 against the Arizona Cardinals. Surprisingly, he saw limited action in the passing game despite Spencer Rattler's career-high 46 pass attempts, catching just two targets for 12 yards. Despite this, Kamara showed he still has plenty left in the tank. He looks poised to be effective again against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 2 and should see an increased workload as a pass-catcher. He remains a high-upside RB2 this week.

D'Andre Swift News

D'Andre Swift Limited on Wednesday

Wednesday, September 17, 4:08 PM

Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift (quadriceps) was limited during Wednesday's practice due to a quadriceps injury. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status during the week in case this injury begins to linger. However, seeing him open the week in limited capacity should not put him in danger of missing their Week 3 clash against the Dallas Cowboys. Through the first two weeks of the season, Swift has operated as the clear workhorse back of the Chicago backfield, taking 29 carries for 116 yards and a score. Through the air, Swift has seen eight targets and brought in six receptions for 18yards. If Swift were to be limited in Week 3, fantasy managers should expect rookie Kyle Monangai to take on a larger workload.
