"Jerry McDonald of the Bay Area News Group speculates that Darren McFadden will miss the Oakland Raiders' Week 5 matchup against the San Diego Chargers, and maybe even more than that.
On the other hand, Raiders coach Tom Cable said Monday that neither McFadden nor Michael Bennett "felt real bad" that morning (per the San Francisco Chronicle), which could be a good sign (ESPN)."
From everything I have read it sounds like he is going to be out this week, which is really too bad because McFadden had finally been productive posting totals of 95, 145, 105 on the ground before getting hurt against the Texans. Hamstrings worry me, because they can linger all season, so if you got this guy on your fantasy team make sure you keep an eye on his updates.
If McFadden really is out this could be Michael Bush's time to shine. I personally don't think he is all that good, but the Raiders are really going to need him to pick up the slack.
