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.
Browns WR Amari Cooper (hip) is not listed on the final injury report for Saturday's game vs. the Ravens. Cooper only got on a limited practice on Thursday, so it's safe to assume he won't be at 100% for this one. He played his usual snap allotment last week but finished with 2 catches on 7 targets for 42 yards. Consider Cooper a risk/reward WR3 in Week 15 fantasy lineups.
Ravens QB Lamar Jackson (knee) is out for Saturday's game vs. the Browns. QB Tyler Huntley (concussion) isn't listed on the final injury report and is expected to start that one. That's good news for the offense in general -- and specifically TE Mark Andrews -- but Huntley is only a recommended play in 2-QB and Superflex leagues.
Seahawks S Ryan Neal (knee) is active for tonight's game against the 49ers. He was questionable after missing practice this week with a knee issue, but he played through it last week and missed just 1 snap. Blame the short week for his absences. Barring some word from coaches, Neal looks ready for IDP use.
49ers QB Brock Purdy (oblique, ribs) is active for tonight's game vs. the Seahawks. He was limited in practice all week and listed as questionable, but we never sensed much concern about his availability for this one. Purdy has played well the past 2 weeks but is still only a viable option in 2-QB and Superflex leagues.
Seahawks RBs DeeJay Dallas and Tony Jones are inactive for tonight's game vs. the 49ers. RBs Ken Walker, Travis Homer and Godwin Igwebuike are dressed for Seattle. We're expecting Walker to see his usual workload tonight.
Broncos QB Russell Wilson was limited in practice on Thursday. This marks an improvement from yesterday, when Wilson was sidelined. We’ll continue to track his progress through the concussion protocol. If active, he’ll profile as a QB2 against Arizona. Denver’s currently implied for only 19.5 points.
49ers QB Brock Purdy (oblique, ribs) is expected to suit up tonight vs. Seattle, per ESPN’s Adam Schefter. Purdy practiced this week, so the news isn’t surprising. He remains a QB2 in a matchup that should turn up plenty of rushing.
Commanders RBs Brian Robinson (quad) and Antonio Gibson (foot) were limited in Wednesday's practice. We haven't heard anything to suggest that either guy is in danger of missing Sunday night's game vs. the Giants, but we'll keep an eye on them over the next few days.
Giants TE Daniel Bellinger (rib) got in a limited practice on Wednesday. That gives him a shot to gut it out vs. the Commanders on Sunday night, but we'll see how the rookie progresses over the next few days.
Giants WR Richie James (concussion) did not practice on Wednesday. We'll see if he can clear through the protocol in time for Sunday night's big game vs. the Commanders, but he shouldn't be in your fantasy plans right now.
Giants RB Saquon Barkley isn't listed on the Week 15 injury report. He was limited last week and listed as questionable with a sore neck -- and then set season lows with a 31% snap rate and 11 touches in the loss to the Eagles. Barkley had slowed down even before the neck injury and gets a tough Washington defense on Sunday night. But we can at least project him to get back to a full workload.
Bucs RB Leonard Fournette is not listed on the Week 15 injury report. He was added with a foot issue last Thursday and then did not practice on Friday before mustering just 46 total yards on 10 touches in the loss to the 49ers. Fournette still has RB Rachaad White to contend with, but health shouldn't be a factor vs. the Bengals this weekend.
Bengals WR Tyler Boyd (finger) got in a limited practice on Wednesday. NFL Network's Tom Pelissero said earlier this week that Boyd "could miss a week or 2" with his dislocated finger, but it looks like he at least has a chance to play vs. the Bucs this weekend. We'll get another update on Boyd tomorrow.
Bengals WR Tee Higgins (hamstring) was limited in Wednesday's practice. He went full-limited-limited last week before infamously playing just 1 snap vs. the Browns. We'll keep a close eye on Higgins' status over the next few days, leading up to Sunday's game vs. the Bucs.
Bengals TE Hayden Hurst (calf) did not practice on Wednesday. HC Zac Taylor labeled him "week-to-week" on Monday, and Hurst looks unlikely to play vs. the Bucs this weekend.
Titans WR Treylon Burks (concussion) remained sidelined on Wednesday. The rookie still has a lot of progress to make in order to be cleared for this weekend's game vs. the Chargers. We'll update his status again tomorrow.
Raiders RB Josh Jacobs (quad, hand) was limited in Wednesday's practice. He played through what looked like a painful hand injury in last Thursday night's loss to the Rams. He should be available for this weekend's game vs. the Patriots, but we'll get another update on Jacobs tomorrow.
Patriots WR Jakobi Meyers (concussion) got in a limited practice on Wednesday. We'll see if he can get cleared in time to play vs. the Raiders this weekend.
Patriots RB Rhamondre Stevenson (ankle) did not practice on Wednesday. RB Damien Harris (thigh) was limited. We'll keep a close eye on this backfield over the next few days, leading up to Sunday's game vs. the Raiders. Kevin Harris and Pierre Strong are the healthy RBs on the active roster. RB J.J. Taylor is on the practice squad.
Patriots WR DeVante Parker (concussion) did not practice on Wednesday. He's unlikely to play vs. the Raiders this weekend after being concussed on Monday night.
