Fantasy Football News Roundup, Week 13: Adrian Peterson Looking Better For Sunday
Checking in on the fantasy news of the day for Week 13
--- Adrian Peterson believes his right ankle is getting better, and hopes to play this Sunday. Keep a close watch, this will likely be a game-time decision. From the Daily Norseman:
Adrian Peterson was on the field for today's walkthrough without a walking boot, according to Tom Pelissero. Like Tom says, it's a long way from playing, but at least it's promising that AP is participating a bit in practice. With the Bills' 32nd-ranked rush defense coming to town on Saturday, having the best running back in the NFL on the field would be a crucial step towards a victory.
--- If you were hoping Redskins running back Ryan Torain would be coming back this week, the prospects don't look good. Torain is still not practicing with a hamstring injury and is unlikely to play.
--- Brandon Marshall is questionable for Miami this week with a hamstring injury.
--- The Titans could get the services of Kerry Collins back at quarterback, which would be a huge relief to all owners who have Tennessee players. Rookie Rusty Smith led the Titans offense to zero points last week, not even a field goal. If you own Titans, you need Collins back.
--- Ben Roethlisberger looks like a safe start for Pittsburgh.
--- Just in case you liked Jason Hanson so much, you were stashing him away as an injured second kicker (and why would you do that?), he's done for the year
