WR Marvin Jones declares his departure from the Lions
The organization announced on Saturday that the seasoned receiver would not play or go to Baltimore; thus, he did not participate in Sunday’s loss to the Ravens. The narrative continued by quoting Jones: In his statement, Jones said, “I just want to say that I have so much love and respect for the Ford family, the city of Detroit, my teammates, and coaches.” In a nutshell, I’m leaving the team to attend to personal and family affairs. I cannot take care of my family from a distance and be the player or person that I need to be for this team, even if this was not an easy decision to make.”
With the infamous hip-drop tackle, Kamara was brought down. The Saints have dominated the entire day in Tampa, as Kamara concluded with 45 yards on ten carries and two receptions for four yards.Kendre Miller isn’t working today, so Jamaal Williams will take over.
Chiefs running back Isiah Pacheco is expected to play against the Bengals on Sunday after clearing the concussion protocol.
Impact of Fantasy:
Pacheco will not miss any games as a result of the injury, which he sustained during the second half of Monday’s game against the Raiders. As they attempt to win the AFC West on Sunday for the eighth time in a row, the Chiefs will have their top rusher available in Week 17. This week, Pacheco resumes his position as one of the top 12 running back options against the Bengals, who have been severely lacking in defensive tackle D.J. Reader.
Hardman is anticipated to play against the Bengals on Sunday after having his dubious designation removed. His first game action since late November will come from this. This week, Hardman will fill in for Kadarius Toney. Given his extended absence and the stage of the fantasy season we are in, it seems unlikely that Hardman will have a significant enough impact to matter in fantasy football.
