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.
Seahawks WR Tyler Lockett caught 8 of 11 targets for a team-leading 81 yards and a TD in Week 8’s victory over the Browns. His teammate D.K. Metcalf was not nearly as efficient on his looks, logging just 5 catches on 14 targets for 67 yards. Rookie Jaxon Smith-Njigba, however, made good use of his opportunities by catching 3 passes for 36 yards and a score in the contest. This trio of WRs combined for 75% of the Seahawks’ targets. It’s pretty clear who QB Geno Smith will look for in Week 9 vs. the Ravens.
Seahawks WR D.K. Metcalf (ribs, hip) put in a full week of practice and isn’t listed on the final Week 8 injury report. It looks like he’s ready to step back into his usual role vs. the Browns on Sunday.
Seahawks WR D.K. Metcalf (ribs, hip) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice. That puts him on track to return for this weekend's game vs. the Browns. Assuming he stays full the rest of the week, Metcalf can be trusted in Week 8 fantasy lineups.
Seahawks WR D.K. Metcalf (ribs, hip) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Cardinals. That should mean target boosts for WRs Tyler Lockett and Jaxon Smith-Njigba – and potentially TEs Noah Fant, Colby Parkinson, and Will Dissly. Jake Bobo figures to slide into a top-3 WR role.
Seahawks WR D.K. Metcalf (hip, ribs) remains a game-time decision for this afternoon's tilt with the Cardinals, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. "There are more concerns about his availability than there were the past two weeks," Schefter adds. We won't get Seattle's inactives until a little after 2:30 pm ET, making this a tricky situation for Metcalf owners. You need to have a late-game alternative rostered if you're hoping to start Metcalf. He'll obviously carry elevated risk if he does end up playing.
Seahawks WR D.K. Metcalf (ribs, hip) is listed as questionable for this weekend's game vs. the Cardinals. He only got in a limited practice on Friday, and HC Pete Carroll labeled him a game-time decision. Metcalf has been playing through the rib injury, so it's likely the hip injury he suffered last week that has him uncertain. It's worth noting that Metcalf did return to last week's game after hurting his hip. We'll look for further updates on his status, but we won't get Seattle's inactives until a little after 2:30 pm ET on Sunday.
Seahawks WR D.K. Metcalf (ribs, hip) missed his second straight practice on Thursday. The team has been managing his practice reps due to the rib injury, so it's tough to know how big a concern the new hip injury is. Check back tomorrow for another update on Metcalf's status for Sunday's game vs. the Cardinals.
Seahawks WR D.K. Metcalf (ribs, hip) did not practice on Wednesday. He's been playing through the rib issue for a few weeks but picked up the hip injury in Sunday's loss to the Bengals. Metcalf was eventually able to return to that one and should be available for this weekend's game vs. the Cardinals. But we'll keep an eye on him over the next few days.
Seahawks WR Tyler Lockett paced the team with 6 catches and 94 yards in Week 6. As usual, Lockett proved effective while working downfield. He earned a 19.5% target share from Geno Smith, who remained inconsistent against Cincinnati. Note: D.K. Metcalf picked up a hip injury on Sunday but was able to return. Regardless of Metcalf’s Week 7 status, Lockett will remain a clear fantasy starter vs. Arizona.
Seahawks WR D.K. Metcalf hurt his hip in the third quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Bengals. He headed back to the locker room and is officially questionable to return. Stay tuned for an update.
Update: Metcalf returned to the game.
Seahawks WR D.K. Metcalf (ribs) is not listed on the final Week 6 injury report. He didn't practice on Wednesday or Thursday but was a full participant on Friday. Seattle is just managing this rib injury during the week. Metcalf will be a full-go vs. the Bengals on Sunday.
Seahawks WR D.K. Metcalf (ribs) did not practice on Wednesday. Metcalf has been playing through this injury since Week 2 and should be ready for this weekend's game vs. the Bengals. But it's not ideal that he's still missing practice coming off the bye week.
Seahawks WR D.K. Metcalf hauled all 3 targets for 31 yards with a TD in Week 4 vs. the Giants. Teammate Tyler Lockett had small success as well, recording 4 catches for 54 yards in the primetime contest. Rookie wideout Jaxon Smith-Njigba notably tied Lockett for a team-leading 6 targets in the game, though his opportunities only manifested into 3 catches for 5 yards. For as frustrating as the first-year WR has been, it’s worth remembering that he’s only a few weeks removed from surgery for a wrist fracture. Perhaps he’ll have more success following the team’s bye week in Week 5.
Seahawks WR D.K. Metcalf (ribs) returned to a full practice on Friday. He'll be ready to go for Monday night's game vs. the Giants.
Seahawks WR D.K. Metcalf (ribs) did not practice on Thursday. He played through this injury last week and should be fine for Monday night's game vs. the Giants, but we'll keep you updated on his status over the next few days.
Seahawks WR D.K. Metcalf delivered 6 receptions for 112 yards among 8 targets in Sunday's win over the Panthers. All three numbers marked season highs for Metcalf, who drew 22.2% of QB Geno Smith's pass attempts. WR Tyler Lockett trailed Metcalf by just one target but managed only 3 receptions for 34 yards. TE Noah Fant ranked second on the team with 4 receptions. Seattle gets a positive matchup with the Giants in Week 4, ahead of a Week 5 bye.
