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.
Washington has downgraded WR Deebo Samuel to out for Sunday's game against the Cowboys. He's not even traveling with the team, thanks to the heel injury that he played through in last Monday night's loss to the Bears. Samuel still led the team's pass catchers in playing time for that contest.
Commanders WR Deebo Samuel (heel) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Cowboys. He only got in a limited practice on Friday. Samuel was in a similar boat last week, when he played vs. the Bears but managed just four catches for 15 yards. We’ll look for further updates on Samuel’s status between now and kickoff. The matchup against Dallas’ 32nd-ranked WR defense would make an active Samuel tough to leave on fantasy benches.
Commanders WR Deebo Samuel (heel) did not practice on Wednesday. He got in just one limited practice last week before mustering only 14 total yards in the Monday night loss to the Bears. Samuel figures to play vs. the Cowboys this weekend, but it'd be nice to see him get in more work in practice over the next two days.
Commanders WR Deebo Samuel managed just 4 receptions for 15 yards in Monday night's loss to the Bears. That's not a surprising development after he managed just one limited practice on an injured heel and entered the game questionable. But it's worth noting that he played near his normal amount. The 72.3% snap share marked his second-lowest of the season but one of three games he's had in the 70s. Samuel's five targets tied for second on the team, trailing only TE Zach Ertz. Chris Moore (3-46-1 receiving) and Luke McCaffrey (1-33-1) joined Ertz in snagging TDs from Jayden Daniels.
Commanders WR Deebo Samuel (heel) is active for tonight’s game vs. the Bears. He only got in a limited practice on Friday this week and was listed as questionable on the final injury report. We haven’t heard anything about him being on a snap count tonight, though, so get Samuel in fantasy lineups if you were waiting on him.
Commanders WR Deebo Samuel (heel) is expected to play vs. the Bears tonight, according to ESPN's Lisa Salters. Samuel is listed as questionable after getting in just a limited practice on Friday. We'll look for any further reports on Washington's plans for Samuel in this one and get the team's inactives around 6:45 pm ET.
Commanders WR Deebo Samuel (heel) is listed as questionable for Monday night's game vs. the Bears. He was sidelined on Thursday, limited in Friday's practice, and then out again on Saturday. Samuel was on the injury report with this heel last week, but he put in a full practice on Friday and did not carry a game designation. He's seemingly in worse shape this week, and the late kickoff leaves fantasy owners in a tough spot. We'll look for further updates on Samuel on Sunday morning.
Commanders WRs Terry McLaurin (quad) and Noah Brown (groin, knee) are out for Monday night's game vs. the Bears. HC Dan Quinn said early this week that he was "optimistic" about McLaurin's availability for this one, but he ended up missing all three practices. He remains without a concrete timetable for return. WR Chris Moore, Luke McCaffrey, and Jaylin Lane will continue to rotate behind Deebo Samuel vs. Chicago.
Commanders WR Deebo Samuel (heel) is not listed on the final Week 5 injury report. He missed the first two practices of the week but returned to a full practice on Friday. It all suggests that Samuel should be ready for his usual role against the Chargers this weekend.
Commanders WR Deebo Samuel (heel) did not practice on Thursday. He was working off to the side, though, and did travel with the team to Los Angeles. We're still expecting Samuel to play vs. the Chargers on Sunday, but we'll see how he's listed on the final injury report tomorrow.
Commanders WRs Terry McLaurin (quad) remained sidelined for Wednesday's practice. HC Dan Quinn said McLaurin is "trending up," but fantasy managers should not be banking on him playing vs. the Chargers this weekend. WR Deebo Samuel (heel) also missed practice on Wednesday. We don't have any other details on his status. We'll see if Samuel gets back on the field tomorrow.
Commanders WR Terry McLaurin (quad) is "very much in doubt" for Sunday's game against the Falcons, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. "Would not be surprised at all if he missed the game," Rapoport adds. McLaurin is still seeking additional opinions on his injury, including from core-muscle expect Dr. William Meyers. "As of now, they believe it's a quad injury. But more tests coming," Rapoport says. We'll look for further details on McLaurin's injury, but he seems unlikely at this point to be ready by Sunday.
