Miami Dolphins Fantasy Football News | Shark Bites

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.

Dolphins S Brandon Jones (chest) and CB Xavien Howard (groin, glute) are questionable for Thursday night's game at Cincinnati. He did put in limited practices the past 2 days. We'll check his availability Thursday evening.

Dolphins lead CB Xavien Howard (groin) is active for today's game against the Bills. If he's limited at all by the groin issue, though, Buffalo's WRs are certainly capable of exploiting the weakness.

Dolphins DT Christian Wilkins (back) is active for today's game against the Ravens. Use him as planned in IDP lineups.

Dolphins DT Christian Wilkins (back) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Ravens. He popped up on the injury report Thursday and was limited the past 2 days. We'll check his status Sunday morning.

The Dolphins have agreed to terms with Mike McDaniel to become the team's next HC. McDaniel spent 2021 as San Francisco's OC after serving as the run-game coordinator the previous 4 seasons. McDaniel arrived with Kyle Shanahan, whom he had also worked under with the Falcons, Browns, Washington and Texans. McDaniel got his NFL start as an intern with the 2005 Broncos, coached by Mike Shanahan. So we should expect a strong Shanahan influence on McDaniel's offensive approach in Miami. He inherits an offense with QB Tua Tagovailoa heading into Year 3 and WR Jaylen Waddle coming off a terrific debut campaign. Plenty of questions need to be answered, though, with "TE" Mike Gesicki and multiple WRs facing free agency. The Dolphins also sport an unsettled backfield that found Duke Johnson leading in rushing yards per game last season. This will be an interesting offense to watch through the offseason, especially because McDaniel looks like a potential plus for the unit.

Dolphins S Brandon Jones (illness) is active for today's game against the Titans.

S Jevon Holland has become the latest Dolphins player to land on the COVID list. We'll see whether he has a shot to make it back for Sunday's game against the Jets.

Dolphins S Brandon Jones (ankle, elbow) is inactive for today's game against the Giants. EDGE Jaelan Phillips (hip) is active, however, and an upside play for pressure-friendly IDP leagues.

Dolphins S Brandon Jones (ankle, elbow) and EDGE Jaelan Phillips (hip) are questionable for Sunday's game against the Giants. Both players put in limited practices all week. Jones missed last week's game with the same injuries after a week of limited practices. Phillips' issue is new. We'll check the status of both potential IDP options Sunday morning.

Dolphins S Brandon Jones (ankle, elbow) is inactive for today's game against the Panthers. That leaves Miami down not just a starting safety, but a key pass-rusher. Clayton Fejedelem and Eric Rowe stand as fill-in options.

Dolphins S Brandon Jones (ankle, elbow) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Panthers. The elbow issue is new for this week, but Jones managed limited practices every day. We'll check his status Sunday morning.

Dolphins DL Christian Wilkins (quad) and LB Andrew Van Ginkel (back) are active for today's game against the Jets.

Dolphins DL Christian Wilkins (quad) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Jets. He put in limited practices the past 2 days after opening the week on the sideline. LB Andrew Van Ginkel (back) is also questionable. He participated on a limited basis all week. S Brandon Jones finished the week with a full Friday practice after 2 limited days and does not carry an injury status into the game.

Dolphins LB Jerome Baker (knee) is active for today's game against the Texans. There's clear upside to the matchup but also the chance Baker sees his playing time limited after missing Week 8 with the knee injury.

Dolphins LB Jerome Baker is questionable for Sunday's game against the Texans. He's dealing with the same knee injury that knocked him out of Week 7 early and then kept him out of last week's game against the Bills. We'll check his status Sunday morning.

Dolphins LB Jerome Baker (knee) is inactive for today's game against the Bills. When Baker left last week's game early, Sam Eguavoen led Miami LBs with 84% playing time. Andrew Van Ginkel (76%) and Elandon Roberts (70%) followed. There's no safe bet in the corps for IDP lineups.

Dolphins LB Jerome Baker (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Bills after putting in limited practices all week. We'll check his status Sunday morning.

Dolphins LB Jerome Baker left Sunday's loss to the Falcons with a knee injury. ESPN's Marcel Louis-Jacques reports that Baker already had an MRI and that it "came back clean." We'll see about the LB's availability for Week 8 at Buffalo. Sam Eguavoen wound up leading Miami LBs with 84% snap share against Atlanta.
