Zaire Franklin Downgraded To Doubtful For Week 9
1 year agoIndianapolis Colts linebacker Zaire Franklin (knee) has been downgraded from questionable to doubtful to play in Week 9 against the Carolina Panthers after he was unable to practice all week. Fantasy managers in IDP leagues need to remove the league's leading tackler from their starting lineups this weekend, as it appears likely the 27-year-old tackling machine won't be able to suit up on Sunday in Carolina. With Franklin likely out this weekend, it could allow Shaquille Leonard to get the additional playing time he's been seeking for this Colts defense. E.J. Speed is another candidate to see a bigger role in the middle of Indy's D in Week 9.
