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.
Giants RB Saquon Barkley (ankle) is active for today’s game vs. the Eagles. He was limited in practice this week and listed as questionable, but Barkley got out of last week’s game without a setback and should be in better shape today.
ESPN's Adam Schefter confirms that Giants RB Saquon Barkley (ankle) is expected to play vs. the Eagles today. Barkley was limited in practice all week and listed as questionable, but there was never much doubt about his availability for this one after he made it out of last week's loss to the Bucs without a setback.
The Titans have placed WR A.J. Brown on IR for his chest injury. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports that it's not expected to end his season, so we should see him back at some point in December. But the earliest he can return is Week 16. Tennessee has its bye next week. That means Brown will -- at best -- make it back for the final 2 weeks of most fantasy leagues' seasons. If you play in a league with tight roster restrictions, Brown might be a drop candidate. Julio Jones will be eligible to come off IR after the bye. Nick Westbrook-Ikhine and Chester Rogers will lead the group this week, with Marcus Johnson out.
Colts LB Darius Leonard (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers. He practiced every day this week, including a full workout Friday. So we'd bet on Leonard playing, especially after he played through a questionable tag last week after less practice participation. It also seems pretty clear that he's operating at less than 100%, though.
Giants RB Saquon Barkley (ankle) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game vs. the Eagles. He's fully expected to play after getting out of last week's game without a setback. Barkley carried just 6 times in that loss to the Bucs but caught all 6 of his targets. His role should grow in his 2nd game back from the ankle injury.
Titans WR A.J. Brown (chest) is out for Sunday's game vs. the Patriots. He didn't practice all week, so his status for Week 13 and beyond is uncertain. WRs Julio Jones and Marcus Johnson are also out, leaving Tennessee with WRs Nick Westbrook-Ikhine, Dez Fitzpatrick and Chester Rogers. It's a very tough spot for Ryan Tannehill against the league's 2nd-ranked QB defense.
Titans WR A.J. Brown (chest) remained sidelined on Thursday. We'll see if he's able to practice on Friday, but fantasy owners need to be making other plans for Week 12.
Titans WR A.J. Brown (chest) did not practice on Wednesday. He's seemingly in danger of missing this weekend's game vs. the Patriots. Check back tomorrow for another update on Brown.
Giants RB Saquon Barkley (ankle) is active for tonight's game against the Bucs. He was limited in practice all week, and it's unclear how big a role he's ready for in his first action since Week 5. But if you were waiting on Barkley, get him into fantasy lineups. RB Devontae Booker (hip) is also active for the G-Men.
X-rays on Titans WR A.J. Brown's chest came back clean, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. "He’ll have more tests today and those can sometimes show more damage. But promising early returns," Rapoport adds. We'll look for another update on Brown, but it sounds like he has a chance to play vs. the Patriots this weekend. It's worth noting, though, that Tennessee has a Week 13 bye.
ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reports that Giants RB Saquon Barkley (ankle) is expected to play Monday night against the Bucs, barring a setback. Barkley is officially questionable, so we'll confirm his status when inactives come out Monday evening. But it sounds like you'll be in luck if you've been waiting for Barkley in your Week 11 fantasy football lineup.
After scoring a TD for the 2nd straight game (this time off an INT), Eagles CB Darius Slay left Sunday's win over the Saints with a concussion. He'll need to pass through the league protocol before returning to game action. Philly visits the Giants next Sunday.
Titans WR A.J. Brown suffered a chest injury in the 2nd half of Sunday's game vs. the Texans and is officially questionable to return. We'll pass along an update when we get one.
Colts LB Darius Leonard (hand, ankle) is active for today's game against the Bills. Use him as you normally would in IDP lineups.
Giants RB Saquon Barkley (ankle) is listed as questionable for Monday night's game vs. the Bucs. He was limited in all 3 practices this week. All signs point to Barkley returning for this one, but it's evidently not a lock. RB Devontae Booker (hip) is also listed as questionable.
Colts LB Darius Leonard (ankle, hand) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Bills. He played nearly every snap against Jacksonville in Week 10 and then put in limited practices Thursday and Friday. HC Frank Reich told the team website Friday that he's hopeful Leonard will play.
Eagles TE Dallas Goedert (concussion) put in a full practice on Friday and isn't listed on the final injury report. He's been cleared to play vs. the Saints this weekend. Philadelphia' super run-heavy offense has left Goedert as a low-end TE1.
Giants RB Saquon Barkley (ankle) remained limited in Friday's practice. He's trending toward a return on Monday night vs. the Bucs, but we'll get another update on Barkley tomorrow.
The Eagles and TE Dallas Goedert agreed to a 4-year, $59 million contract extension with $35 million guaranteed, according to NFL Network's Mike Garafolo. It makes Goedert the league's 3rd-highest-paid TE in terms of average annual salary. Finally freed of TE Zach Ertz, Goedert has been hamstrung by a run-heavy Eagles offense lately. We'll see whether the Eagles stick with QB Jalen Hurts in 2022 and beyond or move in a different direction. But the 26-year-old Goedert is a solid hold in dynasty leagues regardless.
Eagles TE Dallas Goedert (concussion) returned to a limited practice on Thursday. So he's made some progress through the protocol and has a chance to be cleared in time for Sunday's game vs. the Saints. We'll get another update on Goedert tomorrow.
