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 EDGE Rashan Gary (concussion) is active for tonight's game against the Bills.

Packers EDGE Rashan Gary (concussion) is questionable for Sunday night's game against the Bills. HC Matt LaFleur said Friday that he's optimistic Gary will clear the protocol and be ready for the game. Gary finished the week with a full Friday practice.

Raiders RB Josh Jacobs (foot) was upgraded to full participation in Friday’s practice and isn’t listed on the final Week 8 injury report. He was limited on Wednesday and Thursday but should be ready for more workhorse usage vs. the Saints on Sunday.

Raiders RB Josh Jacobs (foot) remained limited in Thursday's practice. We haven't heard any concern about his status for this weekend's game vs. the Saints, but check back Friday afternoon for another update on his status.

Raiders RB Josh Jacobs (foot) was limited in Wednesday's practice. He seemed to make it out of last week's win just fine, so this is likely more of a rest day after he handled another 23 touches vs. Houston. Jacobs should be fine for Sunday's game vs. the Saints, but we'll update his status again tomorrow.

Raiders RB Josh Jacobs ran for 143 yards and 3 TDs on 20 carries in Sunday's win over the Texans. He added 3 catches for 12 yards on 4 targets. This marked 3 straight games of 20+ attempts and more than 140 rushing yards for Jacobs. He should be in your starting lineups until he proves otherwise.

Packers EDGE Rashan Gary left Sunday's loss to the Commanders with a concussion. That'll challenge his availability for next Sunday night's visit to Buffalo.

With J.K. Dobbins headed for knee surgery, ESPN's Jamison Hensley says the Ravens "will rely on Kenyan Drake." He adds that Justice Hill "is back" for this week's game against the Browns and that Gus Edwards "could also be activated" from the PUP ahead of the game. But it sounds like we should expect Drake to run 1st in the backfield for at least Week 7. That's enough to make him the best bet for fantasy football rosters right now, with the understanding that this is a fluid situation.

Packers WR Christian Watson (hamstring) is out for Sunday’s game vs. the Commanders. With WR Randall Cobb (ankle) also out, Green Bay is down to WRs Amari Rodgers and Juwann Winfree behind top-2 WRs Allen Lazard and Romeo Doubs.

Packers WR Christian Watson (hamstring) did not practice on Wednesday. The rookie looks unlikely to make it back for this weekend's game vs. the Commanders.

Ravens RB Kenyan Drake took his team-high 10 carries for 119 yards in Sunday's loss to the Giants, highlighted by a 30-yard TD run. Drake garnered some extra work because RB J.K. Dobbins' repaired knee "tightened up," keeping him from playing the 2nd half. We'll see whether that issue affects Dobbins' availability for Week 7.

Packers RB AJ Dillon led RB Aaron Jones in both carries and targets in Sunday's loss to the Jets. He took his 10 carries for 41 yards and caught 4 of 6 targets for 11. Jones went 9-19 rushing and caught 3 of 4 targets for 25 yards. Jones still led the duo in playing time but spent just 5 more snaps on the field than Dillon. That marked a rebound for Dillon from the split of the Week 5 loss to the Giants. For the year, Dillon and Jones have seen snaps and opportunities split pretty evenly.

Packers EDGE Rashan Gary (toe) is active for today's game against the Jets.

Packers EDGE Rashan Gary (toe) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Jets. He turned up on Thursday's injury report after a limited practice. He still took part in a limited Friday practice, though. We'll check Gary's status Sunday morning for IDP lineups.

Packers WR Christian Watson (hamstring) is out for Sunday’s game vs. the Jets. Allen Lazard, Romeo Doubs and Randall Cobb will serve as Green Bay’s top 3 WRs.

Packers WR Christian Watson (hamstring) did not practice on Wednesday. He was knocked out of last weekend's game in London and isn't looking like a good bet to play vs. the Jets on Sunday.

Raiders RB Josh Jacobs ran for 154 yards and a TD on 21 carries in Monday night's narrow loss to the Chiefs. He added a team-high 5 catches for 39 yards. That landed Jacobs 3rd among RBs in PPR scoring for the week. He now sits 4th at the position for the year. His 26 total opportunities (carries + targets) at K.C. constituted 83.9% of the Raiders' total RB opportunities for the game. Jacobs ranks 6th among RBs in team opportunity share for the season.

Packers WR Christian Watson hurt his right hamstring in the 2nd half of Sunday morning's game vs. the Giants and is officially questionable to return. The rookie had been operating as Green Bay's #4 WR behind Allen Lazard, Romeo Doubs and Randall Cobb.

10:35am EDT 10/3/22

Raiders RB Josh Jacobs went off in Week 4, torching the Broncos for 144 yards and 2 scores on 28 attempts. With 5 catches (6 targets), Jacobs actually set a career-high with 34 opportunities. Vegas never trailed after the 1st quarter, so his passing-game usage is encouraging. He’s actually caught 5 balls in back to back games. On the ground, Jacobs continued to make the most of his opportunities behind a surprisingly-effective O-line. He’s now up to 4.8 YPC through 70 carries. The contract-year back will look to keep rolling Monday night at Kansas City.

Packers CB Jaire Alexander (groin) is inactive for today's game against the Patriots. That would be better news for outside WRs DeVante Parker and Nelson Agholor if Brian Hoyer weren't their QB for the day.
