Green Bay Packers Fantasy Football News | Shark Bites

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.

Packers WR Christian Watson (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Vikings. He didn’t practice all week and seems unlikely to play, but the team is at least keeping the door open. We should get an update on Watson’s status on Sunday morning. He’d be a risky fantasy start if he ends up active. If not, Romeo Doubs, Jayden Reed, and Dontayvion Wicks would be Green Bay’s clear top three WRs.

Packers WR Christian Watson (knee) did not practice on Wednesday. He reportedly dodged a serious knee injury in Monday night's win over the Saints, but he's uncertain for this weekend's game vs. the Vikings. We'll update Watson's status again tomorrow.

Packers HC Matt LaFleur said Tuesday morning that the team got "good news" on WR Christian Watson's knee injury. “It’s more just a bruise," LaFleur said, adding that Watson has a chance to play in this weekend's showdown vs. the Vikings. We'll keep you posted on Watson's status throughout the week.

Packers RB Emanuel Wilson racked up 11 carries for 52 yards and a TD in Monday night's win over the Saints. He loaded up on second-half work after Green Bay pulled Josh Jacobs early in the third quarter. It was Wilson's most carries since Week 3, second-most yards of the season, and third TD of the year.

Packers QB Jordan Love threw for 182 yards and a TD before getting pulled from Monday night's lopsided win over the Saints. He found WR Dontayvion Wicks for the game's first TD but then watched his team score two more times on the ground before departing.

Packers RB Josh Jacobs got his final carry early in third quarter of Monday night's win over the Saints. He didn't get hurt. Green Bay simply didn't need him beyond that. Jacobs carried 13 times for 69 yards and a TD, adding 4 receptions for 38 yards on 4 targets before he left. Emanuel Wilson and Chris Brooks added rushing TDs as well.

Packers WR Christian Watson injured his right knee in Monday night's game against the Saints and is questionable to return. He sustained the injury on a second-quarter run, seemingly taking a shot to it by a stumbling defender after going down out of bounds. Watson initially returned to the game but then left again. We'll watch for more on his status, but Watson hasn't delivered much fantasy relevance. His absence would help Dontayvion Wicks' playing time.

Packers TE Luke Musgrave has been activated from IR and will play against the Saints tonight, NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reports. Musgrave had ankle surgery in October and hasn’t played since Week 4. "They’ll ease him in," Pelissero adds. Musgrave is nothing more than a flier in one-game DFS tournaments. We don't expect him to have a significant impact on TE Tucker Kraft's playing time tonight.

The Packers have ruled LB Quay Walker out for Monday night's game against the Saints because of the ankle he sprained last week.

Playing his first game since Week 12, Packers WR Romeo Doubs led his team in routes (25) and TDs (2). He added 3 catches for 40 yards on an 18.5% target share vs. Seattle.

Packers LB Quay Walker left with an ankle injury in the first half of Sunday night's game against the Seahawks and was later ruled out. We'll see about his outlook for Week 16 and beyond. Walker's absence would leave room for Isaiah McDuffie and/or Eric Wilson to see more snaps.

Packers WR Romeo Doubs (concussion) put in a full week of practice and is not listed on the final injury report for Sunday night's game vs. the Seahawks. He should step back into his usual role as one of Green Bay's top outside receivers. But he's not a great fantasy play against a Seattle defense that ranks eighth in adjusted fantasy points allowed to WRs over the last five weeks.

The Packers left LB Edgerrin Cooper off the week's final injury report, indicating he's ready to return from his three-game hamstring injury.

Packers WR Romeo Doubs (concussion) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice. Barring a setback, he'll be back for Sunday night's game vs. the Seahawks. Doubs should resume full-time duties, knocking WR Dontayvion Wicks off the fantasy radar.

Packers WR Jayden Reed failed to catch his only target in Thursday’s loss at Detroit. He ranked third among Packers WRs in routes run. Green Bay set a season-low in offensive plays (45), while Jordan Love attempted only 20 passes. The low pass volume was nothing new, as Love has been held under 30 pass attempts in four straight. Reed also hasn’t topped 30 yards since Week 9. He’ll be tough to trust for a Week 15 matchup at Seattle.

Packers RB Josh Jacobs racked up three TDs in Thursday’s loss to Detroit. He nearly added a receiving score, but the play was wiped off the board by a penalty.

Packers WR Romeo Doubs (concussion) is out for Thursday night's game vs. the Lions. He was limited in practice this week but hasn't cleared protocol yet. He should be back for Week 15, but we'll track Doubs' progress next week. His absence against Detroit will again mean playing-time boosts for WRs Christian Watson and Dontayvion Wicks. The Lions rank 24th in adjusted fantasy points allowed to WRs on the season but have been the 12th-toughest matchup over the last five weeks.

Packers WR Romeo Doubs (concussion) was limited in Tuesday's practice. He still has multiple stages of the protocol to clear in order to play vs. the Lions on Thursday night. His absence would again leave Jayden Reed, Christian Watson, and Dontayvion Wicks as Green Bay's clear top three WRs. Check back tomorrow for another update on Doubs.

Packers QB Jordan Love completed 21 of 28 passes for 274 yards and 2 TDs in Thursday’s win over Miami. High efficiency was key, as Love finished with fewer than 30 attempts for the third straight week.

Packers WR Romeo Doubs (concussion) has been ruled out for Thursday night's game vs. the Dolphins. He never had a chance to clear protocol in four days but will likely be back for Week 14's game against the Lions. Doubs' absence on Thanksgiving should mean a big boost in playing time for WR Dontayvion Wicks.
