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.

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.

Commanders QB Jayden Daniels threw for 258 yards and 5 TDs in Sunday's win over the Eagles. He added 81 rushing yards on 9 carries. 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).

TE Chig Okonkwo led the Titans in targets (11), receptions (9), and receiving yards (81) for Sunday's loss to the Colts. He also ran a route on a season-high 83.3% of Tennessee dropbacks, trailing only WR Nick Westbrook-Ikhine and WR Calvin Ridley. 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.

Lions RB Jahmyr Gibbs was predictably busy in Week 16, racking up 154 total yards on 27 touches. He scored his 15th total TD of the season.

Colts RB Jonathan Taylor racked up 218 yards and 3 TDs on 29 carries in Sunday's win over the Titans. That included scores from 65 yards out in the second quarter and 70 yards away in the third.

Tyjae Spears beat Tony Pollard in carries, receptions, total yards, and fantasy scoring in Sunday's loss to the Colts. The biggest differentiator was Spears claiming both of the team's rushing scores, which came late in the third quarter and late in the fourth.

Giants QB Drew Lock returned to the lineup for Sunday's game against Falcons and resumed underwhelming. He threw for just 210 yards -- at 5.4 yards per pass attempt -- with 2 INTs, 3 sacks taken, and one fumble lost.

The first start for rookie QB Michael Penix Jr. on Sunday couldn't help TE Kyle Pitts. He drew just 2 targets in the win over the Giants, catching one and letting the other bounce off his hands and to a defender for Penix's only INT.

Lions WR Jameson Williams posted 5 catches for a team-high 143 yards in Sunday's win over the Bears. He added his sixth TD of the season.

Giants WR Wan'Dale Robinson made 7 receptions for 62 yards among 12 targets in Sunday's loss to the Falcons. It was Robinson's most targets, receptions, and yards since Week 4. The numbers also nearly matched WR Malik Nabers, who caught seven balls for 68 yards among 14 targets.

Giants RB Tyrone Tracy managed a solid fantasy score in Sunday's loss to the Falcons. But he did it almost entirely as a receiver. Tracy caught all four of his targets for 43 yards and the team's lone TD. He managed only 7 carries for 26 yards despite dominating backfield playing time. Tracy played 36 snaps to Devin Singletary's 13 and Eric Gray's 9. He ran pass routes on half of those snaps.

Bills RB James Cook scored twice in the Bills win against the Patriots. He ran 11 times for 100 yards and a score and was the team’s leading receiving catching all three of his targets for 26 yards and another TD.

Bills QB Josh Allen had a below-average fantasy day, letting down fantasy managers in the playoffs. He went 16-for-29 for 154 yards passing including a TD and INT. He only ran for 30 yards on six carries.

With QB Jameis Winston benched for Dorian Thompson-Robinson, WR Jerry Jeudy’s massive production boost dropped off. He caught two of three targets for only 20 yards. With Thompson-Robinson opting for short passes to TE David Njoku and RB Jerome Ford, Jeudy had little to work with.

Bengals WRs Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins both found the end zone and combined for 19 targets against the Brown. Chase caught six of eight targets for 97 yards and a score while Higgins caught eight of 11 targets for 58 yards and a score.

Browns RB Jerome Ford kicked off the game with a 66-yard scamper and would find the end zone in the third quarter. Ford accounted for 42.8% of the Browns offensive yards in the game. He ran 11 times for 92 yards and the score while also catching all five of his targets for 39 yards.

Bengals QB Joe Burrow is the first player ever to throw for at least 250 yards and three touchdowns in seven consecutive games. He just cleared the mark against the Browns, completing 23-of-30 for 252 yards and three TDs.
