Fantasy Football News & Latest NFL Updates

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 TE Luke Musgrave has been activated from IR and will play against the Saints tonight, NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reports. Musgrave had ankle surgery in October and hasn’t played since Week 4. "They’ll ease him in," Pelissero adds. Musgrave is nothing more than a flier in one-game DFS tournaments. We don't expect him to have a significant impact on TE Tucker Kraft's playing time tonight.

Cowboys RB Rico Dowdle ran 13 times for only 23 yards. He did catch all three of his targets for 28 yards. It was a tough game for Dowdle who lost a goal line TD to RB Ezekiel Elliott as well.

Buccaneers RB Bucky Irving was explosive running the ball picking up 68 carries on 16 rushes, including one TD. He made the Cowboys defense miss numerous tackles throughout the game and was utilized in the passing game. He caught all three for his targets for 24 yards as well

Commanders RB Brian Robinson Jr. lost a pair of fumbles in Sunday's win over the Eagles. The first came on the team's second possession, and then Robinson logged just 1 touch over Washington's next two drives. After his second fumble -- early in the second quarter -- RB Chris Rodriguez saw his first action on the ensuing drive. Robinson did return again and finished the game as Washington's lead back. He still played 42 snaps to 19 for Jeremy McNichols and 7 for Rodriguez. Robinson logged just 10 carries for 24 yards and a 2-17 receiving line on 3 targets.

Buccaneers QB Baker Mayfield needed a late comeback attempt to put up a solid fantasy day completing 31 of 43 for 304 yards and two TDs He also ran three times for 42 yards.

Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb caught six of seven targets for 100 yards in the first half before suffering a shoulder injury that knocked him for most of the game. He did return at points and had a catch on the Cowboys final drive taking his total for the day to 105 yards.

Eagles QB Kenny Pickett took over for Jalen Hurts (concussion) early in the first quarter of Sunday's loss to Washington. He finished the game 14-of-24 passing for 143 yards, with 1 TD and 1 INT. Pickett averaged just 5.96 yards per pass attempt and took 3 sacks among his 30 dropbacks.

A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith combined to claim 23 of Philly's 25 targets in Sunday's loss to Washington. Brown led with 15, catching eight for 97 yards and a TD. Smith tallied a 6-51 receiving line among 8 targets. RBs Saquon Barkley and Kenneth Gainwell logged a target apiece.

Daniels also tossed a pair of INTs but took just 1 sack for the game. His TDs went to WR Olamide Zaccheaus (2), WR Jamison Crowder (2), and WR Terry McLaurin. It marked Daniels' fourth straight game with 2+ TD passes. Before that stretch, he hadn't hit 2 TD passes in consecutive weeks.

WR Olamide Zaccheaus nabbed a pair of TDs in Sunday's win over the Eagles, scoring from 4 yards and 49 yards out in the fourth quarter. He also led the Commanders in targets (8) and receiving yards (70), while tying WR Terry McLaurin for the team reception lead (5).

It was the second straight week Okonkwo set season highs in targets and receptions.

49ers WR Deebo Samuel broke out of a slump with 7 catches, 96 yards, and 1 score in Week 16. That snapped a seven-game scoreless streak.

Colts QB Anthony Richardson attempted just 11 passes in Sunday's 38-30 win over the Titans. He completed seven for 131 yards, including a 27-yard TD connection with WR Josh Downs. Richardson also tossed 1 INT, took a sack, and posted a 9-70-1 rushing line.
