Seattle Seahawks running back Christine Michael returned to practice on Wednesday, getting in a limited session. Head coach Pete Carroll says the plan is to get him ramped up to a full session Thursday and make his season debut against the Denver Broncos in Week 3.
Christine Michael returns to practice, still not a fantasy option
Michael is back at practice and expected to make his season debut Sunday. We break down the fantasy implications.

Michael missed the first two games of the season with a hamstring injury he suffered in preseason. This is his first practice session in over three weeks. Michael played a small role in his rookie year, being active for just three games and recording 79 rushing yards on 18 carries.
Fantasy impact: Robert Turbin is the entrenched backup to Marshawn Lynch, so don't expect Michael to get a big role right away. While he still has a bright future in Seattle's backfield, Michael isn't quite there yet. Dynasty owners can continue stashing him, but unless injury strikes Lynch or Turbin, his 2014 fantasy impact will be minimal. Re-draft owners can keep him on the waiver wire.
