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.
Panthers RB Chuba Hubbard did leave the game with a left leg injury, but returned to continue his career day. He finished with 28 carries for 153 yards and a TD. He also caught four of six targets for 16 yards. With Jonathon Brooks still sidelined, Hubbard was leaned on and came through.
Vikings LBs Blake Cashman and Ivan Pace Jr. are both active for today's game against the Jaguars. It'll be Cashman's first action since Week 5, after he went inactive for the past three games. Pace played no more than 69% of snaps in any of the three games he shared with Cashman earlier this year but saw full playing time in the three contests Cashman missed. That leaves some uncertainty on the snap outlooks for both players today. I have them projected for even playing time against a Jaguars offense that could easily support full-time work for two LBs today.
Jaguars RB D’Ernest Johnson (hamstring) is active for today’s game vs. the Vikings. He should be the team’s No. 3 RB, stealing a few touches from RBs Tank Bigsby and Travis Etienne.
Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence (left shoulder) is officially inactive for today’s game vs. the Vikings. It sounds like he’s still deciding whether to have surgery on this shoulder, which would end his season. We’ll keep you updated on Lawrence’s status. QB Mac Jones gets the start today.
Buccaneers WR Jalen McMillan (hamstring) is active for today’s game vs. the 49ers. The rookie only got in a limited practice on Friday and would be a high-risk Week 10 fantasy start.
Bills WR Amari Cooper (wrist) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Colts. With WR Keon Coleman out with his own wrist injury, Buffalo is down to WRs Khalil Shakir, Mack Hollins, Curtis Samuel, Jalen Virgil, and Tyrell Shavers. Shakir and TE Dalton Kincaid are the team’s best target bets today.
49ers RB Christian McCaffrey (Achilles) is officially active for today’s game against the Buccaneers. He practiced all week, including a full workout on Friday. And ESPN’s Adam Schefter said this morning that CMC should be “full force” today. Get him in Week 10 starting lineups.
49ers WR Deebo Samuel (rib, oblique) is active for today’s game vs. the Bucs. He was limited in practice all week and listed as questionable, but we haven’t heard anything to suggest that Samuel won’t be a full-go today.
Jaguars WR Gabe Davis (shoulder) is active for today’s game vs. the Vikings. He’s reached double-digit PPR points just once all season and will be catching passes from QB Mac Jones in this one. Davis is a weak fantasy option.
Jaguars WR Brian Thomas (chest) is active for today’s game vs. the Vikings. He caught just two balls for 22 yards playing through this injury last week, but he registered a 91% snap rate. QB Mac Jones is a bigger concern for Thomas' Week 10 fantasy outlook than the chest injury.
Falcons WR Drake London (hip) is active for today’s game vs. the Saints. He was limited in practice all week and listed as questionable, but London’s injury never seemed serious. His floor might be a bit lower than usual this week, but London still belongs in the vast majority of fantasy lineups.
Saints RB Jamaal Williams (groin) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Falcons. Jordan Mims will be the No. 2 RB. But look for another busy outing for RB Alvin Kamara, with TE Taysom Hill mixing in for a handful of carries.
Panthers RB Miles Sanders was carted off the field in the second quarter of Sunday morning's game vs. the Panthers and is officially doubtful to return with a foot/ankle injury. RB Chuba Hubbard will continue to dominate backfield work the rest of the way. Carolina has a Week 11 bye and allegedly might actually play RB Jonathon Brooks in Week 12.
ESPN's Adam Schefter said on NFL Countdown that RB Christian McCaffrey (Achilles) "will be out there in full force" vs. the Buccaneers today. "The 49ers thought they were gonna give him half the work today. But with the way that he's looked in practice the last two weeks, I think their expectations rose," Schefter added. McCaffrey belongs in all Week 10 fantasy lineups and is a strong DFS tournament play.
Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill (wrist) is a "true game-time decision" for Monday night's game vs. the Rams, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. Hill first injured his wrist in a joint practice with the Commanders back in August, per Pelissero, and tweaked it again in last week's loss to the Bills. He didn't practice on Friday or Saturday and is officially listed as questionable. Hill did travel with the team to Los Angeles. "That's a good sign," Pelissero adds. "But they might not know until warmups whether or not he's actually going to play." This is obviously a tough situation for Hill's fantasy owners. If you have a strong (think top-20 WR) replacement option, benching Hill is just fine. Otherwise, we'd lean toward waiting on him -- with a replacement from this game on your roster as insurance.
Steelers WR Mike Williams is expected to play vs. the Commanders today but is not expected to be a full-go, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. That's not a surprise considering Williams was traded to Pittsburgh on Tuesday. "My understanding is he's been rejuvenated by the fresh start," Pelissero adds. "He's done a good job of picking things up since he's been able to get there. And they like his enthusiasm and his energy. Down the line they see him as a one-on-one guy that can give them size in the red zone." We remain skeptical that Williams will emerge as a reliable fantasy option as the No. 2 WR in this run-leaning Steelers offense. But we'll keep an eye on his playing time and target share. Williams should not be in Week 10 fantasy lineups.
The Panthers get S Jordan Fuller and Edge D.J. Wonnum back from injuries for today's game against the Giants. Each player is active and expected to start. Edge Charles Harris, meanwhile, turned up as a healthy scratch to make room. He had seen starter-level work since Week 3.
Texans WR Nico Collins (hamstring) is a game-time decision for tonight's meeting with the Lions, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Collins was moved onto the active roster on Saturday but is still listed as questionable. He's been out since Week 5 and only got in a limited practice on Friday this week. We'll look for further updates on Collins, but we might not find out whether he's playing until a little before 7 pm ET. Fantasy owners hoping to start Collins should have a replacement option rostered from the Texans, Lions, Rams, or Dolphins.
There's a "strong possibility" that the Cowboys use QB Trey Lance in certain packages vs. the Eagles today, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. QB Cooper Rush will get the start and figures to play the majority of snaps. But we could see Dallas take advantage of Lance's athleticism, particularly in short-yardage and red-zone situations. You should be avoiding Cowboys QBs in Week 10 fantasy lineups. The Lance news isn't great for WR CeeDee Lamb, but he still belongs in most fantasy lineups.
Giants K Graham Gano (hamstring) is active for this morning’s game vs. the Panthers. It’ll be his first action since Week 2. You can likely do better than Gano in Week 10 fantasy lineups.
