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.

Commanders RB Brian Robinson (ankle) is not listed on the final Week 13 injury report after putting in a full practice on Friday. He'll play vs. the Titans this weekend -- and it looks like he'll be ready for a significant role. RB Austin Ekeler (concussion) has been ruled out. That figures to leave Jeremy McNichols as the No. 2 RB, but he'd be a desperation fantasy start.

Jaguars RB Tank Bigsby (ankle) was a full-go in practice all week and is not listed on the final injury report for Sunday’s game vs. the Texans. It’s unclear how carries will be divvied between Bigsby and RB Travis Etienne. And the matchup is tough against Houston’s fifth-ranked RB defense. Bigsby is not a recommended Week 13 fantasy play.

Eagles WR DeVonta Smith (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game vs. the Ravens. He got in limited practices on Thursday and Friday after missing last week's game. We won't get Philadelphia's inactives until a little before 3 pm ET on Sunday, but we'll likely get at least one more update on Smith between now and then.

Colts WR Alec Pierce (foot) is listed as questionable for this weekend's game vs. the Patriots. He missed the first two practices of the week but returned to a full workout on Friday. That should have him on track to play on Sunday, but we'll get Indianapolis' inactives around 11:30 am ET. WRs Josh Downs (shoulder) and Ashton Dulin (ankle) are both out, which will mean a big boost in playing time for WR Adonai Mitchell.

Patriots WR Demario Douglas (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Colts. He was limited in practice all week. We haven’t heard anything to suggest that Douglas is in danger of missing this one, but you’ll need to check back around 11:30 am ET on Sunday when we get New England’s inactives.

Bills WR Keon Coleman (wrist) is listed as questionable for Sunday night’s game vs. the 49ers after a limited week of practice. We’re tentatively expecting him to play but might not find out for sure until a little before 7 pm ET on Sunday. With a matchup vs. the eighth-ranked WR defense, Coleman belongs on fantasy benches this week.

Chargers TE Will Dissly (groin) is not listed on the final Week 13 injury report. He was sidelined on Wednesday but progressed to a limited practice on Thursday and a full practice on Friday. Dissly remains a viable low-end TE1 option against the Falcons’ 14th-ranked TE defense.

Chargers RB J.K. Dobbins (knee) is out for Sunday’s game vs. the Falcons. We don’t have a timetable for his return, but it wouldn’t be at all surprising if he misses multiple games. Dobbins’ absence figures to leave Gus Edwards as Los Angeles’ lead runner this weekend, but he’ll cede passing-down work to RBs Hassan Haskins and Kimani Vidal.

Falcons WR Darnell Mooney (Achilles) was left off the final Week 13 injury report. He was limited on Wednesday, a full-go on Thursday, and then took a rest day on Friday. Barring further updates, expect Mooney to play his usual role against the Chargers on Sunday.

Falcons WR Drake London (hip) is not listed on the final Week 13 injury report. He was added on Thursday and limited in practice but returned to a full workout on Friday. London should be ready for his typical role against the Chargers this weekend.

Falcons K Younghoe Koo (hip) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Chargers. He was added to the injury report on Thursday but put in a full practice on Friday. That should have Koo in line to play on Sunday, but he’s not a great fantasy bet against a Chargers team ranked second in adjusted fantasy points allowed to Ks.

Raiders RB Alexander Mattison (ankle) is inactive for today's game vs. the Chiefs. With RB Zamir White (quad) also out, Vegas is again down to RBs Ameer Abdullah, Sincere McCormick, and Dylan Laube. Abdullah dominated playing time last week with an 89% snap rate, tallying eight carries and six targets. But Raiders HC Antonio Pierce has talked up a bigger role for McCormick this week. This is ultimately a backfield to try to avoid against Kansas City's top-ranked RB defense.

Panthers TE Ja’Tavion Sanders (neck) has been ruled out for Sunday’s game vs. the Buccaneers. He’s avoided IR for now, but we haven’t heard a timeline for his return. Sanders’ absence leaves Tommy Tremble as Carolina’s top TE, but he’d be a desperation fantasy start.

Panthers WR Jalen Coker (quad) is out for Sunday’s game vs. the Buccaneers. That leaves Xavier Legette, Adam Thielen, and David Moore as Carolina’s clear top three receivers against the league’s 27th-ranked WR defense.

Giants DL Dexter Lawrence dislocated his left elbow in Thursday's loss to the Cowboys and will miss the rest of the season. HC Brian Daboll called the issue "long term" on Friday, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. We'll see about Lawrence's outlook for 2025 but don't expect it to be that long-term an issue.

The Bears have fired HC Matt Eberflus in the wake of Thursday's late debacle against the Lions. He finished 14-32 across two seasons and nearly three-quarters of his third. Chicago has named Thomas Brown interim HC, just three games after he was elevated from passing-game coordinator to interim OC.

Giants TE Theo Johnson suffered a foot injury in Thursday's loss to the Cowboys that's expected to end his season, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said Friday morning that he expects WR CeeDee Lamb (shoulder) to be ready for the Week 14 Monday nighter against the Bengals. Take Jones' medical report with a hefty grain of salt, but it's better than the alternative. We'll keep you posted on Lamb's status when the Cowboys get back to work next week.

Bills TE Dalton Kincaid (knee) is out for Sunday night’s game vs. the 49ers. He didn’t practice all week and didn’t seem close to playing in this one, leaving him iffy for Week 14. Kincaid’s absence will again leave Dawson Knox as Buffalo’s lead TE. He posted a 4-40-0 line on six targets and an 82% route rate last time out. But he doesn’t crack TE1 territory in the Week 13 Rankings against the 49ers’ sixth-ranked TE defense.

Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence (shoulder) is expected to play vs. the Texans this weekend, HC Doug Pederson said Friday. Lawrence will be playing through a significant AC joint injury to his left shoulder that might eventually require surgery. It's his non-throwing shoulder, but there's still some risk that Lawrence takes a shot and is forced to exit. Against a Texans squad ranked fourth in pass defense DVOA, Lawrence would be a shaky Week 13 fantasy play. But his return is excellent news for WR Brian Thomas Jr. and TE Evan Engram.
