George Holani Active Against 49ers

Sunday, October 11, 11:34 AM

Seattle Seahawks running back George Holani (ribs, knee) is active for Sunday's Week 5 matchup against the San Francisco 49ers, according to Corbin K. Smith. Holani was questionable after being limited in practice throughout the week. He carried seven times for 18 yards and caught one pass for two yards against the Chargers last Sunday, while Emanuel Wilson handled 21 carries for 81 yards and scored both a rushing and receiving touchdown. Seattle remains without Zach Charbonnet (knee), who has been ruled out, and Jadarian Price (chest), who is on injured reserve.

CJ Donaldson Drawing Waiver Interest as Saints Backfield Battles Injuries

Saturday, October 17, 11:05 AM

New Orleans Saints running back CJ Donaldson has seen his playing time increase as injuries continue to deplete the team's backfield. The rookie led New Orleans running backs with a 42% offensive snap share against Minnesota in Week 5, although he managed just 13 yards on four carries and caught one pass for seven yards. Kendre Miller handled 10 rushing attempts for 30 yards and a touchdown despite playing fewer snaps, leaving Donaldson without a substantial rushing workload. With Travis Etienne Jr. (hamstring) and Ty Chandler (knee) on injured reserve, another opportunity could be approaching. Alvin Kamara (back) is questionable for Sunday's matchup against the New York Giants after being limited in practice throughout the week. Donaldson has totaled only 42 rushing yards and 10 receiving yards through five games, but his increased involvement and the uncertainty surrounding Kamara make him worth considering as a speculative waiver stash in deeper leagues. Miller remains the more appealing short-term option if Kamara cannot play.
