Seattle Seahawks running back Christine Michael did not practice on Thursday due to a hamstring injury. He did not play in Week 1 and has been dealing with his hamstring strain since last month.
Christine Michael still unlikely to be a fantasy option in Week 2
Christine Michael’s hamstring kept him out of Thursday’s practice. We break down the fantasy implications.

He's still listed third on the depth chart for the Seahawks behind Marshawn Lynch and Robert Turbin. Michael is an extremely talented runner and he may eventually be part of the reason the team doesn't bring Lynch back in 2015. He finished the preseason with 89 yards and one score on 23 carries.
Fantasy impact: It's going to take an awful lot for Michael to have an impact in fantasy this year. He'll need his hamstring to heal rather quickly and may need Lynch and Turbin both to miss time in order to make a major splash. Fantasy owners can probably move on and it may make sense to go after Oakland Raider third stringer Latavius Murray.
