Shark Bites are the latest fantasy football news & NFL updates. Draft Sharks has been in business since 1999. And when we started, redraft was the dominant form of fantasy football. Check out what we've learned about this most basic form of fantasy football along the way.
Packers RB Aaron Jones (hamstring) is active for tonight’s game vs. the Lions. NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero reported this morning that Green Bay will be cautious with Jones’ workload in his first game back. But we’re projecting him to lead the backfield in touches tonight. See where Jones sits in the Week 4 RB Rankings.
The Packers expect RB Aaron Jones to play tonight against the Lions, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. He adds that the team will "be careful" with Jones' workload. That adds some risk to putting Jones in your fantasy lineup. But we're not likely to know exactly what that means for his touch count. Check the Week 4 RB rankings and/or your Team Intel page for updates before setting your lineup. Ultimately, though, there will be some gut calls on how you want to weight Jones' risk-reward vs. your other option(s).
Packers RB Aaron Jones (hamstring) is questionable for Thursday night's game against the Lions. HC Matt Lafleur said Tuesday that he's "cautiously optimistic" that Jones will be available, according to ESPN's Rob Demovsky. We'll check Jones' status ahead of kickoff. Check our Week 4 RB rankings for any updates before setting your lineup.
Packers RB Aaron Jones (hamstring) was listed as a limited participant on Tuesday's injury report. It was just a walkthrough on the short week, but Packers players were talking like Jones will play vs. the Lions on Thursday night, according to ESPN's Rob Demovsky. We'll see how Jones is listed on Wednesday's final injury report.
Packers RB Aaron Jones (hamstring) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Saints. He got in limited practices on Thursday and Friday, so a Week 4 return seems likely. A.J. Dillon will again serve as Green Bay’s lead back today after handling 15 carries and one target last week.
Packers RB Aaron Jones (hamstring) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Saints. He got in limited practices on Thursday and Friday. We’ll look for further updates on Jones’ status and will get Green Bay’s inactives around 11:30 am ET on Sunday. Jones will carry elevated risk in fantasy lineups if he does end up playing.
Packers RB Aaron Jones (hamstring) returned to a limited practice on Thursday. It gives him a chance to play vs. the Saints this weekend. We'll see what Jones does in Friday's practice and how he's listed on the final injury report.
Packers RB Aaron Jones (hamstring) remained sidelined for Wednesday's practice. That's not a good start for his chances of returning for this weekend's game vs. the Saints. We'll update Jones' status again tomorrow.
Packers RB A.J. Dillon posted 55 rushing yards on 15 carries in Week 2’s loss vs. the Falcons. He also added a single catch on his lone target for 8 yards. Green Bay was without starter Aaron Jones (hamstring) for this contest. Though Dillon didn’t have a massive scoring output, he seized 76.1% of the Packers’ RB touch opportunities on Sunday. Should Jones miss another game, fantasy managers can feel comfortable knowing that Dillon would likely be treated as a workhorse back again. Keep an eye on injury reports in the coming days to see if we’ll have Jones back for Week 3 vs. the Saints.
Packers RB Aaron Jones (hamstring) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Falcons. We’ll see if he can make it back for Week 3. A.J. Dillon steps in as Green Bay’s lead back today, with RB Patrick Taylor behind him. Green Bay will also be without LT David Bakhtiari today.
Packers RB Aaron Jones (hamstring) is not expected to play vs. the Falcons today, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. That's not a surprise after Jones missed practice all week. His absence will leave A.J. Dillon as Green Bay's lead back -- and a volume-based RB2 in fantasy lineups.
Packers RB Aaron Jones (hamstring) did not practice all week and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game vs. the Falcons. The veteran could probably play despite not practicing, but he should be on fantasy benches for now. We'll look for further updates on Jones and will get Green Bay's inactives around 11:30 am ET on Sunday. If Jones is inactive, A.J. Dillon will be a volume-based RB2 play.
Packers RB Aaron Jones (hamstring) missed his second straight practice on Thursday. He's now looking unlikely to play vs. the Falcons this weekend, which would leave RB A.J. Dillon as Green Bay's likely workhorse. We just removed Jones and bumped Dillon way up the Week 2 RB Rankings.
Packers RB Aaron Jones (hamstring) did not practice on Wednesday. He downplayed the injury after the Week 1 win, but he's certainly not a lock to play vs. the Falcons this Sunday. Jones' absence would turn A.J. Dillon into Green Bay's feature back. Check back tomorrow for another update on Jones.
Packers RB Aaron Jones didn't sound concerned about the hamstring injury that knocked him out of Sunday's win over the Bears. Jones told reporters afterward that he felt his hamstring "bite" at the end of his TD catch but that it's nowhere near as bad as previous hamstring pulls he's dealt with, per insider Ryan Wood. Jones added that he could have returned if the game was still in doubt. It sounds like he has a good chance to play vs. the Falcons next Sunday, but we'll keep a close eye on Jones' status throughout the coming week.
Packers RB Aaron Jones had himself a Sunday, logging 126 total yards on 10 touches vs. the Bears. The veteran recorded 41 rushing yards on 9 carries with 1 TD. The bulk of his damage came through the air, however. Jones finished Week 1’s victory with 2 catches for 86 yards, including a 51-yard TD off a screen pass in the third quarter. Teammate A.J. Dillon fared much worse, tallying a poor 19 yards on 13 carries. It’s unreasonable to expect Jones to be that efficient on his touches moving forward. Even so, he performed considerably better than Dillon on fewer touches and will look to continue these efforts next Sunday against a Falcons defense that surrendered 167 total yards to Panthers’ RBs in Week 1.
Packers RB Aaron Jones injured his hamstring at the end of a 35-yard receiving score in the third quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Bears. He's officially questionable to return. We'll pass along an update when we get one.
NFL Network's Ian Rapoport and ESPN's Adam Schefter report that Packers WR Romeo Doubs (hamstring) is expected to play vs. the Bears today. But he'll be limited. Rapoport tweets that Doubs "likely won't have a full complement of snaps." He's not a recommended Week 1 fantasy starter. Expect a run-heavy attack from the Packers, with RB Aaron Jones, WR Jayden Reed, and TE Luke Musgrave the best bets for targets.
Packers WR Romeo Doubs (hamstring) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Bears. He got in limited practices on Thursday and Friday. Even if Doubs ends up active on Sunday, he’ll be at risk of reduced snaps and reinjury. We’d try not to use him in Week 1 fantasy lineups. With WR Christian Watson (hamstring) out, WR Jayden Reed and TE Luke Musgrave should see increased target shares. But we’re expecting a run-heavy attack from Green Bay, featuring RBs Aaron Jones and A.J. Dillon.
Packers WRs Christian Watson and Romeo Doubs missed Wednesday's practice with hamstring injuries. Doubs has been sidelined for close to two weeks now, but it's unclear when Watson got hurt. Their absences vs. the Bears this weekend would leave rookies Jayden Reed and Luke Musgrave as Green Bay's top two pass-catchers -- and likely mean heavy doses of RBs Aaron Jones and A.J. Dillon.
