Carolina Panthers wide receiver Brandon LaFell was a full participant in practice on Friday and has been listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Oakland Raiders. LaFell did not practice earlier this week because of a toe injury.
Brandon LaFell probable for Week 16: Fantasy implications
Carolina Panthers wide receiver Brandon LaFell (toe) practiced on Friday and is listed as probable for Week 16. We break down the fantasy implications.
Bob Donnan-US PRESSWIRE
LaFell was active for Week 15 but was not targeted in the win over the San Diego Chargers. Coach Ron Rivera said on Friday that LaFell looked good in practice.
Fantasy Impact: The Panthers have been playing well on offense the last few weeks and LaFell would normally be a good fantasy play against a bad defense like Oakland’s. Fantasy owners have to be worried about last weekend but it sounds like LaFell is healthier this weekend.
LaFell should get consideration as a No. 3 wide receiver or flex play in deeper leagues.
