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 QB Patrick Mahomes completed 28 of 41 attempts for 260 yards and 1 score in Saturday's win over Houston. He added a 5-33-1 rushing line.
Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes (ankle) is not listed on the final Week 16 injury report and will start Saturday's game vs. the Texans. He was a full participant in practice all week. Reportedly dealing with a high-ankle sprain, it's safe to assume that Mahomes won't have his usual mobility against Houston. And he'd already been underwhelming in fantasy football, finishing outside the top-15 QBs in four of his last five games. Mahomes sits well outside QB1 territory in the Week 16 Rankings, but his availability is good news for the rest of Kansas City's offense.
Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes (ankle) was listed as a full participant in Tuesday's practice. It was likely a light workout just two days removed from the win over the Browns, but this obviously bodes well for Mahomes' chances of playing against the Texans on Saturday. The line on that game has moved from Texans - 2 to Chiefs -3 over the last 12 hours. We'll update Mahomes' status again tomorrow. If he does suit up vs. Houston, he'll be a shaky QB1 play at less than 100% against a quality defense.
Chiefs HC Andy Reid said QB Patrick Mahomes will try to practice on Tuesday. "We'll see how Pat does out there," Reid said this morning. "He's going to go through some stuff, and we'll see how it works out for him. And if he can't work, then Carson will take those reps that Pat doesn't. We have full confidence in Carson. If he has to step in and play, then I think everybody, coaches and players, have full confidence that he can go in and do a nice job." Said Mahomes: "If I feel like I can play and go out there and win a football game, I will." We’ll see how the week progresses, but there’s at least a chance that Mahomes suits up vs. Houston on Saturday.
Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes has been diagnosed with a "mild" right high-ankle sprain, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. "He's still considered week-to-week," Rapoport adds.
Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes (ankle) was non-committal about his Week 16 status when asked after Sunday's win over the Browns. "It's hard to say right now,'' Mahomes said. "You still [have] adrenaline rolling and usually it's kind of the day after when you kind of get a good sense of it. I feel like I could have finished the game in different circumstances, but I thought the smart decision ... was to put Carson Wentz in. ... You just do what you have to do to get back, and I think that's the most important thing. And now we just get back to the rehab part, the treatment part, and try to get ourselves ready on a short week against a good football team." Mahomes has just six days to get ready for Saturday's 1 pm ET kickoff against the Texans. We're sure to get many updates on his status between now and then. But fantasy owners will want to have an alternative lined up for Week 16.
Chiefs HC Andy Reid said after Sunday's win over the Browns that QB Patrick Mahomes is "day-to-day" with his ankle injury. The ankle is not broken, Reid added. It sounds like Mahomes dodged a significant injury, although he has one fewer day to get ready for Saturday afternoon's game vs. Texans. We'll keep you updated on his status throughout the coming week. QB Carson Wentz is Kansas City's backup.
Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes left Sunday’s game against the Browns with an ankle injury in the fourth quarter of today’s game. Despite throwing two TDs, Mahomes only competed 50% of his passes going 19-for-38 for 159 yards.
Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes suffered an ankle injury in the fourth quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Browns. He's officially questionable to return and has been replaced by QB Carson Wentz. With the Chiefs nursing a 14-point lead, we don't expect to see Mahomes back out there. We'll look for further updates on the ankle injury.
The forecast for today’s Chiefs-Browns game calls for a 60% chance of rain with sustained winds of 15 mph and gusts up around 30 mph. That’s enough wind to impact the passing and kicking games. Throw in the likelihood of rain and we’re looking at tough conditions. We’ve bumped down our passing projections for both teams and would avoid the kickers from this game. Check out the updated Week 15 Rankings to see where all the Chiefs and Browns land.
Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes posted his second-lowest fantasy score of the season in Sunday night's win over the Chargers. He threw for just 210 yards and 1 TD on 24-of-37 passing (5.68 yards per pass attempt). Mahomes sits 15th among Week 14 QBs by ESPN scoring, with Monday night's game still to go.
Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes threw for 306 yards and 1 TD in a Week 13 win over Las Vegas. His 56.5% completion rate marked a season-low.
