The Facts:
"They blew it out of proportion on TV" said Washington Redskins running back Alfred Morris when asked about the shoulder stinger he sustained in the team's Week 9 loss to the Carolina Panthers. Morris said that he's fine and ready to take on the 3-6 Philadelphia Eagles this Sunday at FedEx Field.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Whether you took a flyer on him late in the draft or snagged him off the waiver wire, Morris is one of the 2012 fantasy season's biggest surprises. His production took a dip to single-digit fantasy points in Weeks 8 and 9 for the first time since Week 2 against the St. Louis Rams as the Redskins struggled on both sides of the ball. While Morris runs hard, he isn't as involved in the passing game as his fantasy owners would like and he hasn't scored a touchdown since October 14 against the Minnesota Vikings. Morris returns from the bye to take on a tackling-challenged Eagles run defense. Start him with confidence.
