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.

Steelers TE Pat Freiermuth sustained a concussion in the 2nd half of Sunday's game vs. the Bills. We'll track his progress through the protocol this coming week.

Seahawks RB Rashaad Penny suffered an ankle injury in the 3rd quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Saints and is doubtful to return. That leaves lead duties to rookie RB Ken Walker.

Saints WR Chris Olave sustained a concussion on his 16-yard TD catch in the 3rd quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Seahawks. He's out for the rest of this one. We'll track his progress through the protocol this coming week.

3:00pm EDT 10/9/22

Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb (groin) is active for today’s game vs. the Rams. He sat out Thursday’s practice but returned to a limited workout on Friday. There have been no reports about Lamb being limited today, so we’d keep him in fantasy lineups.

Cowboys RB Tony Pollard (illness) is active for today’s game vs. the Rams. We’re expecting him to play his usual role behind RB Ezekiel Elliott.

Eagles RB Boston Scott (rib) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Cardinals. That should mean a few extra touches for RB Miles Sanders.

2:56pm EDT 10/9/22

Cardinals WR Rondale Moore (knee) is active for today’s game vs. the Eagles. He was added to the injury report and limited on Thursday but was able to get in another limited practice on Friday. With WR A.J. Green back for this one, Moore should move back into the slot, where the Eagles are missing starting CB Avonte Maddox.

Patriots RB Damien Harris suffered a hamstring injury in the 1st half of Sunday's game vs. the Lions and is officially questionable to return. Rhamondre Stevenson is the only other available RB for New England. We'll update Harris' status when we know more.

Update: Harris has been ruled out.

Dolphins QB Teddy Bridgewater headed back to the locker room in the 1st quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Jets with an undisclosed injury. That leaves Miami with 7th-round rookie QB Skylar Thompson. We'll update Bridgewater's status when we know more.

Update: Bridgewater is questionable to return with elbow and head injuries, the team announced.

Update: Per the CBS broadcast, Bridgewater passed concussion tests but has been ruled out "out in abundance of caution."

Fox Sports' Jay Glazer reports that the Lions' "plan" is for WR Amon-Ra St. Brown to play 20-30 snaps vs. the Patriots today -- but that he could end up playing more if that ankle is feeling good. It puts fantasy owners in a tough spot. St. Brown could still produce a nice fantasy day on limited snaps, but it obviously lowers both his floor and ceiling. We just moved St. Brown down the WR Rankings.

Packers WR Christian Watson hurt his right hamstring in the 2nd half of Sunday morning's game vs. the Giants and is officially questionable to return. The rookie had been operating as Green Bay's #4 WR behind Allen Lazard, Romeo Doubs and Randall Cobb.

Giants RB Saquon Barkley left in the 2nd half of Sunday's game against the Packers with a shoulder injury. He's questionable to return. We'll watch for further updates.

Update: Barkley returned in the 4th quarter and quickly ripped off a 41-yard catch and run.

11:40am EDT 10/9/22

Saints S Marcus Maye (rib) is inactive. It'll be his 3rd straight game missed with the injury.

Bills WR Isaiah McKenzie (concussion) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Steelers. That leaves rookie Khalil Shakir as Buffalo’s #3 WR – and a nice cheap flier in DFS lineups.

Dolphins CB Xavier Howard (groin) is inactive for today's game against the Jets. Already down starting CB Byron Jones for the 5th straight game, Miami's secondary presents an upside matchup for the talented Jets wideouts.

11:40am EDT 10/9/22

Jaguars WR Zay Jones (ankle) is active for today’s game vs. the Texans. He got in 3 limited practices this week after missing last Sunday’s loss to the Eagles. Consider Jones a risk/reward WR4 in Week 5 fantasy lineups.

11:40am EDT 10/9/22

Chargers WR Joshua Palmer (ankle) is active for today’s game against the Browns. He was limited in practice all week after seeing his snaps scaled back in last Sunday’s win over the Texans. That leaves Palmer as a risky Week 5 fantasy play.

Chargers K Dustin Hopkins (right quad) is inactive for today’s game against the Browns. Taylor Bertolet will kick in his place.

11:39am EDT 10/9/22

Patriots WR Jakobi Meyers (knee) is active for today’s game vs. the Lions. It’s a plus matchup. But, between the knee that limited him in practice all week and a rookie QB making his 1st career start, Meyers would be a risky Week 5 fantasy play.

Patriots S Kyle Dugger (knee) and CB Jalen Mills (hamstring) are active for today's game against the Lions.
