Jacksonville Jaguars 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.

11:38am EDT 10/9/22

Patriots QB Mac Jones (ankle) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Lions. 4th-round rookie QB Bailey Zappe makes his 1st career start. Expect a run-heavy game plan from New England.

Lions WR Josh Reynolds (ankle) is active for today’s game vs. the Patriots. Consider him a WR4 with Amon-Ra St. Brown back for this one.

Lions WR Josh Reynolds (ankle) is expected to play vs. the Patriots today, per ESPN's Adam Schefter. Reynolds will have much less fantasy appeal if WR Amon-Ra St. Brown suits up. We'll get Detroit's inactives around 11:30 am.

Broncos CB Ronald Darby tore his right ACL in Thursday night's loss to the Colts. That obviously ends his season. We'll see whether it also marks the end of his time in Denver. Darby has 1 year remaining on his contract, but that year carries a $13 million cap hit vs. just $3 million in dead cap space if the team cuts him.

Patriots QB Mac Jones (ankle) is listed as doubtful for Sunday’s game vs. the Lions. He got in 3 limited practices this week, so a Week 6 return looks possible. QB Brian Hoyer (concussion) was placed on IR, so it’ll be 4th-round rookie Bailey Zappe under center for New England this weekend.

The 49ers have ruled DE Arik Armstead (foot, ankle) and DT Javon Kinlaw (knee) out for Sunday's game against the Panthers. That damages both the run D and pass rush for San Francisco. We'll see, though, whether the Carolina offense can take advantage. We'd still feel comfy using the Niners' team D in fantasy football lineups.

Patriots QB Mac Jones (ankle) remained limited in Thursday's practice. QB Brian Hoyer (concussion) was placed on IR, knocking him out for at least the next 4 games. That means it'll be Bailey Zappe under center for New England this weekend if Jones can't go.

Bills WR Gabriel Davis (ankle) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice -- his 1st full practice since suffering that ankle injury on September 17. Davis has played a full allotment of snaps the past 2 games but clearly hasn't been at 100%. It looks like he'll be in much better shape for this weekend's game vs. the Steelers.

Patriots QB Mac Jones managed a limited practice Wednesday. That's a pretty big step after he missed Week 4 with what was deemed a pretty significant high-ankle sprain. Jones reportedly wanted to play Sunday against the Packers. We'll see if he can actually get back into the lineup for Week 5. We wouldn't be using him in fantasy lineups outside of superflex and 2-QB leagues. But Jones' return should be good for New England pass-catchers.

Niners DL Arik Armstead left Monday night's game against the Rams with a foot injury. He has been dealing with plantar fasciitis. We'll see about his status for Week 5.

Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence threw an INT and lost 4 fumbles in Sunday's rain-soaked loss in Philadelphia. He also managed just 11 of 23 passing for 174 yards. Lawrence did hit WR Jamal Agnew for a pair of TDs, but the 5 turnovers wiped out all fantasy value. Lawrence and the Jacksonville offense get a nice rebound matchup at home with Houston in Week 5.

Jaguars RB Travis Etienne led the team in rushing yards Sunday, but that only took 32 yards on 8 carries. That number matched James Robinson, who gained just 29 yards on the ground. Etienne also drew the only target between them but failed to catch it. This looks like a throwaway day for an offense that had started much stronger.

WR Christian Kirk led the Jaguars with 9 targets in a sloppy loss to the Eagles on Sunday, but he managed only 2 catches (for 60 yards). WR Jamal Agnew stepped in to catch 4 balls for 50 yards (among 6 targets) and score the team's only 2 offensive TDs. JaMycal Hasty was the only other Jaguar to draw more than 1 target on a sloppy offensive day in rainy Philly. TE Evan Engram and WR Marvin Jones each drew just 1 target apiece.

11:33am EDT 10/2/22

Bears WR Velus Jones (hamstring) is active for today’s game vs. the Giants. We’ll see how big a role the rookie plays in his debut, but he’s not a fantasy option.

Lions WR Josh Reynolds (ankle) is active for today’s game vs. the Seahawks. Reynolds got in just limited practices on Thursday and Friday, but he figures to play a significant role today with WRs Amon-Ra St. Brown and D.J. Chark and RB D’Andre Swift out.

11:30am EDT 10/2/22

Bills WR Gabe Davis (ankle) is active for today’s game vs. the Ravens. He played 96% of Buffalo’s offensive snaps last week but reportedly tweaked that ankle again in practice this week. Consider Davis a risk/reward WR3 in Week 4 fantasy lineups.

Bills WR Gabriel Davis (ankle) is expected to play vs. the Ravens today, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Davis played through this ankle issue last week but tweaked it again in practice this week. He ended up getting in just 2 limited practices and is listed as questionable. Consider Davis a risk/reward WR3 in Week 4 fantasy lineups.

Patriots QB Mac Jones (ankle) is out for Sunday’s game vs. the Packers. He did get back on the practice field on Friday, so perhaps he can make it back for Week 5. QB Brian Hoyer gets the start for New England this weekend. That doesn’t figure to go well.

Bears WR Velus Jones (hamstring) is questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Giants. He was a full participant in Friday’s practice, so it looks like he’s ready to make his NFL debut. Jones, of course, is nowhere close to being a fantasy option.

Bills WR Gabe Davis (ankle) is questionable for this weekend's game vs. the Ravens. He was limited Wednesday, sidelined on Thursday and limited again Friday. Bills HC Sean McDermott said Friday morning that Davis aggravated his previous ankle injury but is "on schedule to go." We'll get Buffalo's inactives at 11:30 am ET Sunday.
