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.
Raiders LB Denzel Perryman (hip, ribs) is inactive for today’s game against the Colts. That leaves Vegas without its top 3 LBs from last week’s lineup. Veteran Jayon Brown looks like the best bet to lead the corps this week, though it’s a guess after he spent the past 2 games as a healthy scratch
Cowboys RB Ezekiel Elliott (knee) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Packers. He got in 3 limited practices this week, so we’re tentatively expecting him to return for Week 11. The Cowboys showed last time out that they don’t want to make RB Tony Pollard a workhorse. But he still projects for 15-20 touches in a plus matchup, landing him inside RB1 territory in the Week 10 Rankings.
Cardinals K Matt Prater (illness, hip) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Rams. Tristan Vizcaino will kick for Arizona but isn’t a great fantasy option.
Colts TE Mo Alie-Cox (ankle) is active for today’s game vs. the Raiders. He joins Kylen Granson in the TE corps, with TE Jelani Woods (shoulder) out.
Chiefs WR JuJu Smith-Schuster took a hit to the head in the 2nd quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Jaguars. He'll certainly be checked for a concussion and is unlikely to return to this one. We'll update Smith-Schuster's status when we know more. It's worth noting that he's already sustained 3 documented concussions.
Update: Smith-Schuster is in the concussion protocol and has been ruled out.
Broncos WR Jerry Jeudy suffered an apparent left leg injury in the 1st quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Titans. He was able to limp off under his own power. We'll update Jeudy's status when we know more.
Update: Jeudy is officially questionable to return with an ankle injury.
Update: Jeudy has been downgraded to out.
Bills QB Josh Allen (elbow) will start today's game vs. the Vikings, per ESPN's Adam Schefter. It's nice to have confirmation after earlier reports that Allen wasn't on the field for the start of warmups. The Athletic's Joe Buscaglia reports that Allen was under center when Buffalo went to 11-on-11s. Allen carries more risk than usual playing through that elbow injury, but he still belongs in the vast majority of fantasy lineups. DraftKings sports book has Allen's passing yardage prop set at 252.5.
Saints WR Marquez Callaway is a healthy scratch for today's game vs. the Steelers. He's the odd man out with WR Jarvis Landry back. Landry joins Chris Olave and Tre'Quan Smith as New Orleans' top 3 WRs.
Buccaneers RB Leonard Fournette left this morning's game against the Seahawks with a hip injury and is doubtful to return. We'll see about the diagnosis and return timeline this week, but Tampa Bay's Week 11 bye should help.
Cowboys HC Mike McCarthy does not expect RB Ezekiel Elliott (knee) to play vs. the Packers later today, according to ESPN's Ed Werder. Werder adds that McCarthy "wasn't definitive," but all signs over the past 24 hours have pointed to Zeke missing this one. We won't get Dallas' inactives until 3 pm ET, but Elliott should be on fantasy benches -- and RB Tony Pollard in starting lineups.
Jaguars S Rayshawn Jenkins has cleared the concussion protocol and is active for today's game against the Chiefs.
Lions S Kerby Joseph (concussion) is active for today's game against the Bears. That matches what coaches said they expected. LB Malcolm Rodriguez (elbow) is inactive.
Saints S Marcus Maye (abdomen) and EDGE Marcus Davenport (calf) are inactive for today's game against the Steelers.
Bills LB Tremaine Edmunds (groin, heel) is active for today's game against the Vikings. He carries some risk after putting in just 1 limited practice this week but is available for IDP use.
Texans TE Brevin Jordan is a healthy scratch for today’s game vs. the Giants. That leaves Houston with TEs O.J. Howard, Jordan Akins and Teagan Quitoriano. This remains a situation to avoid in Week 10 fantasy lineups.
Giants WR Kenny Golladay (knee) is active for today’s game vs. the Texans. It’ll be his first action since Week 4. Golladay totaled just 2 catches over the first 4 games of the season and isn’t a Week 10 fantasy option.
Chiefs RB Jerick McKinnon (shoulder, knee, hamstring) is active for today’s game vs. the Jaguars. The hamstring was added to the injury report on Friday, when McKinnon was limited in practice, so he carries elevated risk in Week 10 fantasy lineups.
Texans WR Brandin Cooks (wrist) is active for today’s game vs. the Giants. Underwhelming even before the wrist injury and trade drama, Cooks is no better than a WR3 in Week 10 fantasy lineups. WR Nico Collins (groin) is also active for Houston and should step back in as the #2 WR.
Bills QB Josh Allen (elbow) is officially active for today’s game vs. the Vikings. He got in just a limited practice on Friday and carries elevated risk in Week 10 fantasy lineups. But there’s still plenty of upside here. See where Allen sits in the QB Rankings.
Titans QB Ryan Tannehill (ankle) is active for today’s game vs. the Broncos. Still probably not at 100% and facing the #2 QB defense, Tannehill is not a recommended fantasy start.
