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.
Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa (hip) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Jets. QB Tyler Huntley gets his second straight start and is on the radar in superflex leagues and DFS tournaments. He threw for 225 and a score last week, adding another 52 yards and a TD on the ground.
Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa (hip) is not expected to play vs. the Jets today and would be iffy for the Wild Card round if Miami qualifies, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Tagovailoa is dealing with a "unique hip injury, which is affecting the surrounding muscles and therefore his strength and mobility, along with leaving him vulnerable to further injury," Rapoport writes. It's the same hip that Tagovailoa had surgically repaired while at Alabama in 2019. We'll see if QB Tyler Huntley can lead Miami to a win today. The Fins would also need a Broncos loss to the Chiefs to make the playoffs. It doesn't sound like Tagovailoa's hip injury is a long-term concern.
Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa (hip) is listed as doubtful for Sunday’s game vs. the Jets. QB Tyler Huntley is expected to make his second straight start. He played well last week, completing 22 of 26 passes (85%) for 225 yards (8.7 YPA) and one TD, adding another 52 yards and a score on the ground. Huntley is in play in superflex leagues and DFS tournaments.
Dolphins HC Mike McDaniel said Wednesday that the team is preparing QB Tyler Huntley to start this weekend's game vs. the Jets. QB Tua Tagovailoa will be limited in practice on Wednesday with his hip injury, and it sounds like he hasn't been ruled out for Week 18 yet. But fantasy owners should be planning as if it'll be Huntley under center again for now. He played well in the Week 17 win over the Browns, completing 22 of 26 passes (85%) for 225 yards (8.7 YPA) and one TD, adding another 52 yards and a score on the ground. Just as importantly, the Dolphins stayed pass-heavy, registering a +11% pass rate over expected. That makes it easier to trust guys like WR Tyreek Hill and TE Jonnu Smith in Week 18 fantasy lineups, although Huntley is still a downgrade from Tagovailoa.
Dolphins HC Mike McDaniel said after Sunday's win over the Browns that it's too early to know whether QB Tua Tagovailoa (hip) will be able to play vs. the Jets next weekend. McDaniel added that Tagovailoa was not medically cleared to play today. The Dolphins will get the AFC's No. 7 seed if they beat the Jets and the Broncos lose to the Chiefs. QB Tyler Huntley played a clean game in Cleveland, completing 22 of 26 passes for 225 yards, one TD, and 0 INTs and running seven times for 52 yards and a score.
Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa (hip) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Browns. That leaves QB Tyler Huntley under center. Miami registered a 43.6% pass rate across Huntley’s three starts earlier this season, averaging just 135 passing yards per game. Expect another run-heavy attack today in a game with a 32.5-point over/under. Huntley isn’t even a recommended QB2 in fantasy lineups and is a big downgrade for Miami’s pass-catchers.
Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa has been downgraded to Doubtful for Sundays game against the Browns. It is unlikely he will play putting QB Tyler Huntley in line to star
Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa (hip) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Browns. He dealt with this hip issue last week but was left off the final injury report. We’ve heard nothing to suggest that Tagovailoa is in danger of missing this one, but we’ll keep an eye on his status.
Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle (knee) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game vs. the 49ers. Waddle has had an underwhelming season and ranks just fourth among Dolphins in targets. But he still leaves behind 5.3 targets per game. His absence means added target upside for WR Tyreek Hill, TE Jonnu Smith, and RB De'Von Achane. Rookie Malik Washington figures to slide in as Miami's No. 2 WR but is really only in play in DFS tournaments.
Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa threw three INTs in a Week 15 loss at Houston. Tua finished with 196 yards and 1 TD on 29 of 40 passing.
Dolphins TE Jonnu Smith went all of regulation without recording a catch. Then in overtime, the veteran caught all 3 targets for 44 yards and a game-winning score.
Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle caught 4 of 4 targets for 53 yards in Thursday’s loss to Green Bay. He added a two-point conversion on an impressive end zone catch.
Dolphins TE Jonnu Smith caught 9 of 11 targets for 87 yards and 1 score in Sunday's win over New England. Smith now leads all TEs in fantasy points over the past two weeks.
Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle went off for 8 catches, 144 yards, and 1 score in a Week 12 win over New England. His 28.4 PPR points marked his highest output since Week 8 of 2022.
Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle finished Week 11 with 2 catches for 37 yards. He drew just an 8.3% target share on a day that saw Tua Tagovailoa throw 36 times for 288 yards.
Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill (wrist) is listed as questionable for Monday night's game vs. the Rams. He was added to the injury report on Friday and missed the final two practices of the week.
Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa has cleared concussion protocol and will start this weekend's game vs. the Cardinals, HC Mike McDaniel said Friday. Miami has totaled just 40 points without Tagovailoa over the last four games. They averaged 27.9 points per game with Tua last year and are implied for 25 points against Arizona this week. Dolphins players are back to their early-season spots in our Week 8 Rankings.
