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.
Chiefs K Harrison Butker (knee) has been activated from IR and will kick against the Browns on Sunday. It'll be his first action since Week 10.

The Chiefs are placing K Harrison Butker on IR, knocking him out for the next four games, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports that Butker is undergoing surgery to trim the meniscus in his left knee, "though he'll be back for the home stretch and playoffs." Butker can be dropped in the vast majority of fantasy leagues. He sits outside the top 10 kickers in points per game in most scoring formats. The Chiefs are signing K Spencer Shrader off the Jets' practice squad to replace Butker, per Schefter. Schrader made both of his FG attempts for the Jets last week. We'd look elsewhere for a Week 11 fantasy kicker considering the Chiefs' matchup against a strong Bills defense,
