Fantasy Football News & Latest NFL Updates

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.

Jaguars TE Evan Engram returned from a hamstring injury to post 10 catches for 102 yards in Week 6. His target share was a healthy 28.5%.

Packers WR Dontayvion Wicks is questionable to return to Sunday's game vs. the Cardinals with a shoulder injury. He was playing ahead of WR Christian Watson before exiting, catching one of three targets for nine yards. We'll update Wicks' status when we know more.

Update: Wicks has been ruled out.

Saints WR Chris Olave sustained a concussion in the first quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Bucs and won't return. It's Olave's fourth documented concussion. He's a long shot to be cleared in time for Thursday night's game vs. the Broncos.

Browns RB Jerome Ford suffered a hamstring injury in the first quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Eagles and is questionable to return. His absence leaves D'Onta Foreman and Pierre Strong in the backfield. RB Nick Chubb is expected to make his 2024 debut next week.

Update: Ford has been ruled out.

Eagles TE Dallas Goedert injured his hamstring on the first drive of Sunday's game vs. the Browns. He's officially questionable for return. We'll update his status when we know more.

Update: Goedert has been ruled out.

Patriots S Kyle Dugger (ankle) is active for today's game against the Texans after missing last week. We'll see about the playing time at the other safety spot, which will miss the suspended Jabrill Peppers. Jaylinn Hawkins and Marte Mapu each played full time in Week 5. Edge Anfernee Jennings (shoulder) and CB Marcus Jones (groin) are also active vs. Houston.

Colts CB Kenny Moore II (hip, shoulder) is active for today's game against the Titans. He missed the past two but should be ready for usual IDP usage this week.

Buccaneers S Antoine Winfield Jr. is active for today's game against the Saints. He has been out since suffering a high ankle sprain late in Week 1. S Jordan Whitehead (groin) and DT Calijah Kancey (calf) are also active. It'll be Kancey's first appearance of the season.

Cardinals K Matt Prater (knee) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Packers. Chad Ryland will kick again for Arizona after connecting on three of four FGs last week, including the game-winning 35-yarder.

Buccaneers WR Jalen McMillan (hamstring) is active for today’s game vs. the Saints. He figures to slide back in as Tampa Bay’s No. 3 WR but isn’t a legitimate fantasy option.

11:37am EDT 10/13/24

Colts WR Josh Downs (toe) is active for today’s game vs. the Titans. He only practiced on Friday, so it’s likely that Downs won’t be at 100% for this one. But he's in the WR3 mix with QB Joe Flacco getting the start.

Colts WR Michael Pittman (back) is active for today’s game against the Titans. He went from supposedly being an IR candidate on Wednesday to a full participant in practice on Friday. Pittman still carries added risk in Week 6 fantasy lineups, although QB Joe Flacco getting the start helps his chances.

Buccaneers RB Rachaad White (foot) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Saints. That leaves Bucky Irving, Sean Tucker, and D.J. Williams in the backfield. Irving should dominate work and is a strong RB2 in Week 6 fantasy lineups.

Packers WR Christian Watson (ankle) is active for today’s game vs. the Cardinals. He was limited in practice all week and still probably isn’t at 100%. We’d try not to use Watson in Week 6 fantasy lineups, but his return makes WR Dontayvion Wicks an extremely shaky fantasy play. Watson was playing ahead of Wicks before the ankle injury.

Colts QB Joe Flacco will start today's game vs. the Titans, NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reports. QB Anthony Richardson (oblique) will serve as the emergency third QB. Flacco played well in the Week 5 loss to the Jaguars, throwing for 359 yards and three scores. Today's matchup is tougher, so Flacco is not a recommended QB1 play. But he's good news for WRs Josh Downs and Michael Pittman.

11:26am EDT 10/13/24

Texans RB Joe Mixon (ankle) is active for today’s game vs. the Patriots. He’s been out since Week 2 and got in just two limited practices this week. That adds obvious risk to Mixon’s profile, although he’s still worth starting for many fantasy teams. See where Mixon sits in the Week 6 Rankings.

Jaguars RB Travis Etienne is questionable to return to Sunday's game vs. the Bears due to a hamstring injury. He lost one yard on three carries and dropped his only target before exiting. Etienne's absence leaves Jacksonville's backfield to Tank Bigsby and D'Ernest Johnson.

Jaguars WR Gabe Davis (knee) is active for today’s game vs. the Bears. He was limited in practice all week and listed as questionable. Davis, who’s averaging just 2.4 catches and 32 yards per game, is a weak fantasy play.

Jaguars TE Evan Engram (hamstring) is active for today’s game vs. the Bears. It’ll be his first action since hurting his hamstring in pre-game warmups ahead of Week 2. Engram was limited in practice all this week. He comes with elevated risk but is still probably worth using for many fantasy teams. See where Engrams sits in the Week 6 TE Rankings.

Cardinals K Matt Prater (knee) is "unlikely" to play vs. the Packers today, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Arizona elevated K Chad Ryland from the practice squad on Saturday. Look for Ryland to handle kicking duties today.
