Atlanta Falcons RB Michael Turner (elbow) is limited in practice on Thursday. This is the second straight day Turner hasn't gotten a full practice, but it appears to be mere rest and shouldn't be a serious issue. He's fully expected to suit up against the Carolina Panthers in Week 14.
Michael Turner limited in Thursday practice, fantasy value holds
Michael Turner was limited in practice for the second day in a row, but he’s still on track to play in Week 14. We break down the fantasy implications.
US PRESSWIRE
Turner “The Burner” is on pace for just 904 yards, nine TDs and 3.7 YPC.
Fantasy Impact: He should be ready to play. There are continued grumblings about giving more playing to to Jacquizz Rodgers, but Turner is still the featured back.
At age 30, Turner is slower than molasses, but he’s still getting goal-line touches and should be good for at least a couple three-yard dives down the stretch. He’s worth a low-end RB2/flex spot in the fantasy playoffs.
