Shane Vereen injury update: No fantasy value with questionable status

Shane Vereen is questionable for Week 6 against the Seahawks. We break down the fantasy implications.

New England Patriots RB Shane Vereen (foot) is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Seattle Seahawks. Vereen has been limited in practice all week, and despite Bill Belichick's well-documented trolling of the injury reports, there's a chance he won't suit up this week.

Vereen has just two carries this season for one yard and a TD.

Fantasy Impact: Never mind the goal-line vulture against the Broncos in Week 5, Vereen is a non-factor in fantasy leagues. There was some minor hype in the preseason when he was competing with Stevan Ridley for carries, but Ridley has thrived as the workhorse back, and with Brandon Bolden exploding as a valuable handcuff, there's just no place in the offense for Vereen.

Forget about his game status this week, Vereen belongs on the waiver wire in all fantasy leagues. He’s worthless in fantasy.
