Jonathon Brooks News
Thursday, November 12, 10:59 AM
Carolina Panthers running back Jonathon Brooks (groin) completed a full practice Thursday, according to Sheena Quick. The Panthers opened his return window Wednesday and listed him as a full participant on their estimated report after a walkthrough. Brooks remains on injured reserve ahead of Sunday's game against the New Orleans Saints. He has missed six games since aggravating the injury at Atlanta in Week 2 and undergoing core muscle surgery. Brooks can stay on fantasy benches if Carolina activates him for Week 10. Chuba Hubbard returned to full practice Thursday after resting Wednesday. He played 89% of the offensive snaps against Denver and has handled 49 touches over the past two games, including 11 catches. Trevor Etienne had two carries on seven offensive snaps against the Broncos and is listed as Carolina's lead punt returner this week. Brooks ran nine times for 30 yards in two games before going on injured reserve. His 48-yard catch on a deep pass from Bryce Young in the opener against Chicago accounted for most of his 73 yards from scrimmage.

Kaleb Johnson News
Tuesday, November 10, 9:35 AM
The Green Bay Packers are happy with what they saw from running back Kaleb Johnson in Sunday's Week 9 win over the New England Patriots after offensive coordinator Adam Stenavich said they challenged Johnson to "run hard, run angry," according to Rob Demovsky of ESPN. Stenavich also mentioned that Johnson showed improvement in pass protection. With Josh Jacobs fracturing his finger and MarShawn Lloyd (knee) being inactive on Sunday, Johnson played a season-high 39% of the offensive snaps and had a season-high 14 carries for 68 yards while scoring his first NFL touchdown in the 45-27 blowout win in New England. Jacobs is expected to miss multiple weeks and could land on Injured Reserve, so if Lloyd misses another game with his knee injury, the 23-year-old Johnson could lead Green Bay's backfield again in Week 10 against the division-rival Minnesota Vikings. Johnson should certainly be a waiver-wire consideration this week with both Jacobs and Lloyd banged up, but even if he is the lead back this Sunday, he probably should not be considered much more than an RB3/flex in Week 10 against a stout Vikings defense.
