Las Vegas Raiders 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.

Patriots WR Jakobi Meyers (concussion) remained limited on Thursday. He still has work to do to get cleared for this weekend's game vs. the Raiders. We'll get another update on his progress tomorrow.

Patriots WR Jakobi Meyers (concussion) got in a limited practice on Wednesday. We'll see if he can get cleared in time to play vs. the Raiders this weekend.

Seahawks QB Geno Smith struggled through most of Sunday's loss to the Panthers, including a pair of INTs. He nearly tossed a 3rd, but CB Jaycee Horn narrowly missed getting a 2nd foot down in bounds. Smith did wind up with a solid 264 yards and 3 TDs passing, the last coming with just 16 seconds to go and his team down 13. Seattle's top 3 WRs all scored, with Marquise Goodwin posting the top line: 5-95-1 on 6 targets. D.K. Metcalf went for 5-71-1 on a team-high 10 targets. Tyler Lockett caught 5 balls for 60 yards and a TD, marking his 6th straight game with a score. Seattle hosts a tough 49ers defense on Thursday night.

The Patriots have ruled WR Jakobi Meyers (concussion) out for Monday night's game against the Cardinals. He was limited last time out coming off his Thanksgiving night shoulder surgery, so his absence doesn't leave quite as many targets to spread around as it usually would.

Patriots WR Jakobi Meyers (concussion) remained sidelined on Friday. He still has a few days to get cleared for Monday night’s game vs. the Cardinals, but that doesn’t seem particularly likely. We’ll get another update on Meyers tomorrow.

Seahawks QB Geno Smith (right shoulder) is not listed on the final Week 14 injury report. He was added on Thursday and limited in practice, but Smith was upgraded to full participation on Friday. It all suggests that the shoulder issue won't be a factor vs. the Panthers this weekend.

Patriots WR Jakobi Meyers is in the concussion protocol and did not practice on Thursday. We'll track his status over the next few days and see if he can get cleared in time to play vs. the Cardinals on Monday night. Meyers owners should obviously be making other plans for now, though.

Seahawks QB Geno Smith was added to the injury report and limited in practice on Thursday with a right shoulder injury. We don't have any other details right now, but a QB dealing with an issue with his throwing shoulder is certainly worth monitoring. We'll get another update on Geno tomorrow.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports that the Falcons will start QB Desmond Ridder in Week 15, after this week's bye. The 3rd-round rookie has yet to play a snap this year, with veteran QB Marcus Mariota piloting Atlanta to its current 5-8 record. The Falcons rank a decent 15th in scoring but just 28th in total yards. It's likely a 4-game trial for Ridder to help the franchise know whether it needs to prioritize QB early in Round 1 of the 2023 NFL Draft. It's tough to bet on strong fantasy stats from Ridder in his 1st NFL action. But he was an efficient college passer (87 TDs, 28 INTs) and effective runner (2,180 yards, 28 TDs rushing career). Ridder should be claimed where available in 2-QB and superflex leagues.

Seahawks QB Geno Smith threw for 367 yards in Sunday's win over the Rams, setting a new career high for yardage. WRs Tyler Lockett and D.K. Metcalf each had big lines. Lockett delivered 9-128-1 receiving on a team-high 12 targets. Metcalf added 8-127-1 on 8 targets. TE Noah Want claimed the 3rd of Smith's TD throws, catching 4 balls for 42 yards in all. Week 14 holds a decent matchup with the Panthers.

Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert (knee) practiced all week, including a full workout on Friday, and isn’t listed on the final injury report. He’ll be back for Sunday’s game vs. the 49ers but figures to work behind RB Jeff Wilson. In their last game together, Wilson out-carried Mostert 17 to 8 and out-targeted him 5 to 4.

Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert (knee) remained limited in Thursday's practice. We're tentatively expecting him to return for this weekend's game vs. the 49ers, but we'll get another update on Mostert's status tomorrow.

Patriots WR Jakobi Meyers (shoulder) is active for tonight's game vs. the Bills. There have been no reports of his snaps being limited, but there's at least some risk that he aggravates that shoulder injury. See where Meyers sits in the Week 13 WR Rankings.

Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert (knee) was limited in Wednesday's practice. He got in just a limited practice last Friday before missing the Texans game. HC Mike McDaniel has seemed optimistic about Mostert's chances of returning for Sunday's game vs. the 49ers, but we'll keep an eye on him over the next few days.

The Patriots list WR Jakobi Meyers (shoulder) as questionable for Thursday night's game vs. the Bills. He was limited in practice all week. Meyers was able to battle through this injury on Thanksgiving but wound up playing just 29% of New England's offensive snaps. We're expecting Meyers to play tomorrow, but he'll carry elevated risk in Week 13 fantasy lineups.

Patriots WR Jakobi Meyers (shoulder) got in a limited practice on Tuesday. He was able to return for limited snaps after hurting that shoulder very early in last Thursday night's game vs. the Vikings, finishing with 3 catches on 4 targets for 62 yards. Meyers will carry elevated risk in fantasy lineups if he plays vs. the Bills this Thursday night.

Seahawks QB Geno Smith went 27-of-37 passing in Sunday's OT loss to the Raiders, compiling a season-high 328 yards and 2 TDs. Smith also threw an INT and lost a fumble. He targeted WR D.K. Metcalf with 40.5% of his attempts (15), completing 11 for 90 yards. No other Seahawk caught more than 3 passes. Tyler Lockett hauled in 3 of 7 targets for 68 yards and a TD. RB Travis Homer caught the other score. It was Smith's 3rd game this season with 300+ yards. he added 22 rushing yards on 5 attempts.

Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert (knee) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Texans. That leaves Jeff Wilson as Miami’s clear lead back in a dream matchup. He’s a RB1 play today. RBs Salvon Ahmed and Myles Gaskin are active behind Wilson.

Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert (knee) is listed as doubtful for this weekend’s game vs. the Texans after getting in just a limited practice on Friday. HC Mike McDaniel confirmed that Mostert has an “uphill battle” to play on Sunday. His absence would leave Jeff Wilson as Miami’s clear lead back against the league’s #32 RB defense.

Patriots WR Jakobi Meyers injured his right shoulder on the team's 1st offensive play in Thursday night's game vs. the Vikings. He got an x-ray in the locker room but returned to play limited snaps in the 2nd half. “Sore,” Meyers said of the shoulder afterward. “I’ll be alright though... It started to feel better as the game went on.” It sounds like Meyers will be able to play through this issue, but we'll keep an eye on him when the Patriots get back to work next week.
