WEEK 11 FANTASY: Sleepers | Busts | Get started, feel them
Update on Alvin Kamara’s injury
Kamara (knee) got a limited practice session on wednesday, which is already an improvement over last week considering he didn’t practice at all. That said, he should be on his way to playing Philadelphia, but nothing is official.
Philadelphia yields the most fantasy points per game to the RBs, so if Kamara is in, we’re not worried about the perceived risk he will take. As one of the best pass catching runners in the league, we rank him RB5 in PPR and RB9 in standard leagues. Mark Ingram will take some of his touches, but Kamara has always done a lot of his damage efficiently and through the air.
WEEK 11 STANDARD RATINGS:
Field marshal | Running backwards | Wide receiver | Tight end | D / ST | Kicker
Miles Sanders injury update
Sanders (ankle) has been designated to return from IRBut the Eagles don’t have to give an update on his status until he’s officially off injured reserve. However, he is more likely to miss Week 11 than to play, but if he does return, there is no way we can expect a full workload. Jordan Howard, Boston Scott and Kenneth Gainwell have been productive when asked, and this will likely be a committee when Sanders returns.
We don’t currently have Sanders in our rankings, but if he plays the third best defense against the fantasy RBs (New Orleans), he is the most suitable for the bench, at least for this week.
WEEK 11 PPR RANKINGS:
Field marshal | Running backwards | Wide receiver | Tight end | D / ST | Kicker
James Robinson injury update
Robinson (heel, knee) missed practice on wednesday and appears to be “questionable” heading into Week 11. He missed Week 9 with a heel injury, but the knee injury is a first. That said, we will have to be vigilant about its status.
The 49ers are an intermediate defense against fantasy RBs, and Robinson’s workload is strong enough to classify him as RB14 in PPR and RB16 in standard leagues. If Carlos Hyde starts, it will be classified as a low-end RB2.

Clyde Edwards-Helaire injury update
Despite recent reports, CEH (knee) tends to play against the Cowboys, Andy Reid said. there is a possibility that it is not activated from infrared. Considering the Chiefs have a week 12, it makes sense if they have any lingering questions about Edwards-Helaire’s health.
WEEK 11 DFS: Best Stacks | Best values | Lineup Creator
CEH ranks as our RB22 in the standard leagues and RB23 in the PPR leagues if he plays. Darrel Williams just out-produced him, so it’s hard to think that he would immediately land a workhorse role after injury. Williams would take a similar place if he can’t go.
