Kansas City Chiefs 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.

It "sounds like" Cardinals WR DeAndre Hopkins (hamstring) will miss Sunday's game vs. the Panthers, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Hopkins is less likely to play than WR Rondale Moore and QB Kyler Murray, who are also listed as questionable, per Schefter. We'll look for further updates on Hopkins, but he shouldn't be in fantasy lineups at this point.

Chargers LB Drue Tranquill has landed on the COVID list and will miss Sunday's game against the Vikings. His place in the lineup will be taken by Kenneth Murray, who returns from IR. Murray missed the past 5 games with an ankle injury. The Los Angeles Times reports that Murray is expected to be activated Saturday.

Cardinals WR DeAndre Hopkins (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game against the Panthers. He didn’t practice all week, but HC Kliff Kingsbury labeled him a game-time decision on Friday. This game doesn’t kick off until 4:05 pm ET on Sunday, but we should get an update on Hopkins’ status that morning.

Chiefs HC Andy Reid said Friday that it's "probably a stretch" for RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire (knee) to play vs. the Raiders on Sunday night. CEH got back on the practice field this week and looked good, according to Reid, but it sounds like he's targeting a Week 11 return. Kansas City would need to activate Edwards-Helaire by Saturday at 4 pm ET if he's going to play vs. Vegas, so we'll know for sure then. For now, it looks like Darrel Williams will get another game as lead back.

Cardinals WR DeAndre Hopkins (hamstring) remained sidelined for Thursday's practice. He can play vs. the Panthers this weekend without practicing, but Hopkins seems no better than 50/50 to do so. We'll get another update on his status tomorrow.

Chiefs RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire (knee) has been designated to return and was on the practice field Wednesday, according to ESPN's Adam Teicher. CEH has been sidelined since spraining his knee back in Week 5. We'll see if he's ready to play against the Raiders on Sunday night. Edwards-Helaire figured to be in a timeshare with RB Darrel Williams when he does return.

Cardinals WR DeAndre Hopkins (hamstring) did not practice on Wednesday. His availability for this weekend's game vs. the Panthers is uncertain. We'll get another update on his status tomorrow.

Cardinals WR DeAndre Hopkins (hamstring) is inactive for today’s game vs. the 49ers. We’ll see if he can make it back for Week 10. With WR A.J. Green (COVID) also out, Arizona is down to WRs Christian Kirk, Rondale Moore, Antoine Wesley and Andy Isabella. Consider Kirk and Moore WR3s with Colt McCoy under center.

Cardinals WR DeAndre Hopkins remains a game-time decision for today's tilt with the 49ers, according to both ESPN's Adam Schefter and NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Schefter adds, though, that the team isn't "optimistic." And Rapoport tweeted, "He almost always plays, but if there is ever an exception, this may be it." Between Hopkins' hamstring and QB Kyler Murray's ankle, Hopkins is better off on fantasy benches this week.

Chiefs RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire (knee) remains on IR and won't play vs. the Packers this weekend. HC Andy Reid only said Friday that CEH is "closer" to returning. (We'd hope so!). "We'll have to see how time handles it here in the next couple of weeks," Reid added. RB Darrel Williams will get at least 1 more start on Sunday -- and potentially more starts beyond that.

Cardinals WR DeAndre Hopkins (hamstring) didn't practice all week and will be a game-time decision on Sunday, HC Kliff Kingsbury said. Hopkins was active after not practicing at all last week but lasted just 15 snaps. So he'll be a risky fantasy play if he ends up active -- especially with QB Kyler Murray also banged up.

Cardinals WR DeAndre Hopkins (hamstring) remained sidelined on Thursday. He didn't practice all last week and was active for the Packers game -- but he ended up playing just 15 snaps after aggravating the hamstring injury. Unless Hopkins gets on the practice field tomorrow, he'll be a risky Week 9 fantasy play.

Cardinals WR DeAndre Hopkins (hamstring) did not practice on Wednesday. He was questionable heading into last Thursday night's game before aggravating the injury early on. Hopkins ended up sneaking back in for a few more snaps, so we're tentatively expecting him to play vs. the 49ers this weekend. We'll get another update on his status tomorrow.

Chargers LB Drue Tranquill (chest) is active or today's game against the Patriots.

Chiefs LB Anthony Hitchens (triceps) has been ruled out for Monday night's game against the Giants. Without Hitchens in Week 7, playing time for the top 3 Chiefs LBs went: Nick Bolton 84%, Ben Niemann 74%, Willie Gay Jr. 68%. We'd expect a similar setup this week. CB Charvarius Ward (foot) is questionable. We'll update his status Monday evening, but you'd be better off looking elsewhere for a fantasy CB.

Chargers LB Drue Tranquill (chest) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Patriots. We'll check his status Sunday afternoon, but Tranquill isn't a high-level IDP option even if active. S Nasir Adderley is good to go after missing the last game with a hip injury. He practiced in full all week and didn't appear on the final injury report.

Cardinals WR DeAndre Hopkins aggravated his hamstring injury on a 55-yard catch in the 1st quarter of Thursday night's game vs. the Packers. He remains on the sidelines and is officially questionable to return.

Update: Hopkins re-entered midway through the 3rd quarter.

Cardinals WR DeAndre Hopkins (hamstring) is active for tonight's game vs. the Packers. He carries added risk after missing practice all week and coming into this one listed as questionable. But we haven't heard anything about Hopkins being limited tonight.

Cardinals WR DeAndre Hopkins (hamstring) is expected to play vs. the Packers tonight, "barring any pre-game setbacks," according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Hopkins didn't practice on this short week and is listed as questionable, but we never sensed much concern about his status. He's a strong fantasy play tonight vs. a Green Bay secondary missing top CB Jaire Alexander.

Cardinals WR DeAndre Hopkins (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Thursday night's game vs. the Packers. He didn't practice all week. Hopkins has a long history of playing through ailments, and we haven't sensed much concern from Cardinals beat writers. HC Kliff Kingsbury said Wednesday that Hopkins "might be a game-time decision" but added that he "fully expects him to play," per The Arizona Republic's Bob McManaman. We'll get Arizona's inactives around 7 pm ET tomorrow. Unless we hear that he'll be limited, an active Hopkins will remain a must start.
