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.
Chargers WR Quentin Johnston managed just 2 catches for 30 yards in Sunday's loss to the Colts. That might make him seem a little left out from a game that included a career-high 420 passing yards from QB Justin Herbert. But Johnston got right back to his normal role after missing week 6 with a hamstring injury.
Chargers WR Quentin Johnston (hamstring) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Dolphins. We’ll see if he can make it back for Week 7. We’re expecting WR Tre Harris to step into something close to a full-time role today, although the rookie would be a flier in fantasy lineups. WRs Ladd McConkey and Keenan Allen gain target upside with Johnston out.
Chargers WR Quentin Johnston (hamstring) is "trending toward" missing today's game vs. the Dolphins, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. Johnston was limited in practice all week, so this doesn't look like a multi-week injury. But he should be on fantasy benches for Week 6. Johnston has accounted for 22.0% of Chargers targets, 21.7% of catches, 32.0% of receiving yards, and 50.0% of receiving TDs through five weeks, so this is a big loss. Justin Herbert is moving a couple of spots down the Week 6 QB rankings but remains a solid start against a leaky Miami secondary. WRs Keenan Allen and Ladd McConkey should see more volume with Johnston out. Rookie WR Tre Harris has been operating as Los Angeles clear No. 4 WR the last four weeks and is the favorite to soak up most of Johnston's snaps today. He'd be a desperation start in season-long leagues but might be worth stashing in you have a bench spot to play with. Harris is also in play for daily tournament lineups.
The Chargers are placing RB Omarion Hampton on IR for the left ankle injury that knocked him out of Sunday's loss to the Commanders. That means Hampton will miss at least the next four games. We'll watch for further details on his expected return timeline.
Chargers QB Justin Herbert was excellent in Friday night's win over the Chiefs. He completed 25 of 34 passes (73.5%) for 318 yards (9.4 YPA), 3 TDs, and 0 INTs. Herbert's high-end arm talent was on display throughout the contest. And he reminded us that he's a plus athlete, running seven times for 32 yards. Herbert also had a 22-yard run called back by a holding penalty.
Chargers WR Quentin Johnston took a big hit in Saturday's preseason game against the Rams. He appeared to be unconscious at least briefly. A stretcher was brought out for Johnston, but he was eventually able to walk off the field and get carted to the locker room.
Update: Johnston suffered a concussion and was taken to a hospital as a precaution, HC Jim Harbaugh said after the game.
After dealing with an undisclosed injury, Chargers WR Ladd McConkey returned to practice on Friday, according to Daniel Popper of The Athletic.
Chargers LT Rashawn Slater was carted off the field with a leg injury on Thursday, and according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, suffered a ruptured patella tendon, ending his season.
According to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero, the Chargers have signed veteran WR Keenan Allen to a one-year, $8.52 million deal.
Bears reporter Chris Emma believes “it’s reasonable to believe” that TE Cole Kmet “can be a dynamic threat” with new HC Ben Johnson. Emma predicts Kmet will set statistical career highs in 2025.
Bears WR Rome Odunze found the end zone twice in the second half catching four of five tagrtes for 42 yards. The entire Bears’ offense struggled with much of their scoring coming in a catch up attempt in the second half.
Bears WR D.J. Moore (quad) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the 49ers. He only got in a limited practice on Friday. We’ll look for more info on Moore but won’t get Chicago’s inactives until a little before 3 pm ET on Sunday. WR Keenan Allen (ankle) is off the final injury report after getting in full practices on Thursday and Friday.
Bears WR Keenan Allen (ankle) returned to a full practice on Thursday. He'll be ready to roll for this weekend's game vs. the 49ers. WR D.J. Moore (quad) missed practice again, though, leaving his Week 14 status up in the air. We'll see if Moore gets on the field tomorrow. His absence would boost the fantasy outlooks on both Allen and WR Rome Odunze.
Bears WRs D.J. Moore (quad) and Keenan Allen (ankle) did not practice on Wednesday. Both guys played until the end of last Thursday's loss to the Lions, so this could just be a rest day early in the week. We'll see if Moore and Allen get back on the field tomorrow. WR Rome Odunze would see a big boost in volume vs. the 49ers this weekend if those guys don't play.
After being nearly shut out in the first half, the Bears passing game took off in the second half. Keenan Allen caught five of eight targets for 73 yards and two TDs. D.J. Moore caught eight of 16 targets for 97 yards and a TD. Rookie Rome Odunze only caught two of his six targets for 25 yards.
Bears WR Keenan Allen caught nine of 15 targets for 86 yards and a late TD in a failed comeback. WR DJ Moore caught all seven of his targets for 106 yards and a TD, including the catch to set-up the game tying FG in regulation. Rome Odunze caught five of 10 targets for 39 yards.
