Christian McCaffrey (thigh) doubtful for Panthers on Saturday
Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey (thigh) is considered doubtful for Week 15 against the Green Bay Packers.
What It Means:
McCaffrey did not practice again Thursday. Panthers head coach Matt Rhule said at the beginning of the week that he expected McCaffrey to be inactive Saturday. Mike Davis will likely continue working in a three-down role in Week 15 against the Green Bay Packers. He rushed 11 times for 51 yards and 2 touchdowns, and caught 5 passes (6 targets) for 42 yards, in the Panthers' Week 14 loss to the Denver Broncos.
Davis is the RB11 in numberFire's Week 15 fantasy rankings and has a salary of $7,400 on FanDuel's main slate. The Packers are allowing the fourth-most FanDuel points per game to the running back position this season and rank 30th versus the run in numberFire's advanced defensive rankings.
