Seahawks' Alex Collins lands on COVID list
The Seattle Seahawks placed running back Alex Collins on the reserve/COVID-19 list.
What It Means:
Collins is vaccinated and the NFL's adjusted COVID-19 policy may allow him to play on Sunday versus the Los Angeles Rams. Rashaad Penny is expected to lead the Seahawks' backfield either way, but Collins' absence would help Penny's floor. The potential absence could also prompt the Seahawks to activate Adrian Peterson (back) for Week 15.
Penny is currently the RB27 in numberFire's Week 15 fantasy rankings and our models project him for 12.7 carries. The Rams defense is seventh-best against the run this season, according to our adjusted metrics.
