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.

Giants RB Saquon Barkley is believed to have a low-ankle sprain and will "likely" miss next weekend's game vs. the Rams, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. "He’ll have more tests, but he’s best characterized as week-to-week," Rapoport adds. "A fast healer, Barkley will work to miss only one week." We'll look for a more concrete timetable for Barkley's return. Devontae Booker operated as New York's clear lead back after Barkley exited today's game, handling 19 of the 20 RB opportunities.

Giants RB Saquon Barkley was in a walking boot and on crutches after hurting his left ankle in Sunday's loss to the Cowboys. We see this often after a player hurts an ankle, so it doesn't necessarily tell us anything about the severity of the injury. HC Joe Judge said after the game that Barkley got an X-ray on the ankle but gave no other updates. We should learn more tomorrow.

Giants WR Kadarius Toney was ejected in the 4th quarter of Sunday's game after punching Cowboys S Damontae Kazee. The rookie had a monster game before exiting, catching 10 of 13 targets for 189 yards. We'll see if he faces any further discipline from the league.

Chies DL Chris Jones (wrist) is inactive for tonight's game against the Bills. He has been dealing with the injury for multiple games but must have aggravated it against the Eagles in Week 4.

Bills LB Matt Milano (hamstring) is inactive for tonight's game against the Chiefs. That should mean starter-level playing time for A.J. Klein.

Steelers ILB Devin Bush left Sunday's win over the Broncos in the 4th quarter with a groin injury. It's the 2nd time this season Bush has injured his groin. We'll see about the time table for his return. Robert Spillane filled in and would enter the starting lineup if Bush misses further time.

Jaguars LB Myles Jack left Sunday's game against the Titans with a back injury and did not return. We'll watch for Monday updates on his status.

The Chiefs on Saturday activated LB Willie Gay Jr. from IR. He has been out since the end of preseason with a toe injury. Kansas City listed him as questionable for tonight's game against the Bills, and Gay shouldn't be in anyone's IDP plans yet. He has significant upside through the rest of the season, though.

Raiders QB Derek Carr took a shot to the helmet on a QB sneak on the 1st play of the 4th quarter in Sunday's game against the Bears. Carr was able to get off the field under his own power but headed straight to the medical tent. Stay tuned for updates.

Update: Carr re-entered after missing a few plays.

The Giants ruled WR Kenny Golladay out with a knee injury at halftime of Sunday's game vs. the Cowboys. It's unclear when the injury happened. We'll update Golladay's status when we know more.

Cardinals RB Maxx Williams suffered a right knee injury in the 2nd quarter of Sunday's game against the 49ers. This one looked bad, with Williams taking a helmet directly to the inside of the knee. Stay tuned for updates.

Giants QB Daniel Jones sustained an apparent concussion when he took a big shot late in the 2nd quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Cowboys. He was stumbling as he tried to get off the field. We'll update Jones' status when we know more. QB Mike Glennon is New York's backup.

Update: Jones has been ruled out with a concussion.

Patriots RB Damien Harris suffered chest and rib injuries in today's win over the Texans. He returned from the chest but did not return after hurting his ribs in the 4th quarter. We'll look for updates on his status.

Geoff Hobson of the team website reports that Bengals QB Joe Burrow went to the hospital after Sunday's OT loss to the Packers to be examined for a possible throat contusion. Burrow did make it through the whole game. We'll pass along any updates on the QB's condition.

Giants RB Saquon Barkley rolled his left ankle in the 1st quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Cowboys. He didn't put much weight on it as he left the field. Stay tuned for an update.

Update: The Giants have ruled him out for the game.

Buccaneers LB Lavonte David left Sunday's win over the Dolphins with an ankle injury. ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reports that an X-ray on the ankle came back negative but that David will get an MRI Monday to determine the diagnosis.

Cowboys DE Randy Gregory is active for today's game against the Giants. He entered questionable, but HC Mike McCarthy indicated Friday that he expected Gregory to play.

3:16pm EDT 10/10/21

Saints QB/TE/WR/RB Taysom Hill sustained a concussion in Sunday's game vs. Washington and is done for the afternoon. We'll track his progress through the protocol this coming week.

3:11pm EDT 10/10/21

Cowboys WR Amari Cooper (hamstring) is active for today’s game vs. the Giants. He played only 48% of the offensive snaps last week and got in 2 limited practices this week. Cooper is a risk/reward WR2 in Week 5 fantasy lineups.

Cowboys RB Ezekiel Elliott (knee) is active for today’s game vs. the Giants. He sat out Wednesday with what he described as knee “tightness” and then was limited on Thursday and Friday. We haven’t heard anything about his workload being reduced today.
