George Holani Limited With Rib Injury on Wednesday

Wednesday, September 30, 5:28 PM

Seattle Seahawks running back George Holani (rib) was listed as a limited participant in Wednesday's practice due to a rib injury, according to John Boyle of the team's official website. Holani appears to have picked up a minor rib injury in the upset loss to the Washington Commanders in Week 3, but if he can upgrade to a full practice in the next two days, he could be ready to go by this Sunday back at home against the Los Angeles Chargers. Holani played 36% of the offensive snaps, which was the same amount as backfield mate Emanuel Wilson, but Holani handled only three carries for 10 yards. He salvaged his fantasy day as a pass-catcher, though, catching a team-high five passes for 48 yards through the air. Holani is a hard-to-trust flex option, even in much deeper fantasy football leagues, given the increased role of Wilson in the last couple of weeks. Eventually, Zach Charbonnet (knee) will return to Seattle's backfield, which could push Holani to the RB4 role. In three games this year, he has 15 rushing attempts for 52 yards (3.5 yards per carry) and has added six receptions for 50 yards.

Chris Brooks News

Chris Brooks is the Packers Running Back to Roster for Now

Tuesday, September 29, 10:08 PM

Green Bay Packers running back Chris Brooks has been highly underwhelming to start the season, but he remains the most-involved member of this Green Bay backfield. Brooks has handled more snaps than MarShawn Lloyd and Kaleb Johnson in each of the last two weeks, even though it has amounted to only four carries and two receptions during that span. The 26-year-old is far from the must-start range in fantasy football, but if we absolutely had to start a Green Bay running back, the snap share comparison would point to Brooks by a slight margin. There's reason to believe that the Packers could finally start to run the ball a little more starting in Week 4, as they're heavy favorites against a Jalon Daniels-led Buccaneers squad. Because of his snap share, Brooks is at least worth some consideration on the fantasy radar this week, even if he's not a guaranteed plug-and-play option right away.
