Pittsburgh Steelers 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.

Steelers WR George Pickens posted a strong receiving day in Sunday's loss to the Colts. He set season highs in targets (11), receptions (7), and receiving yards (113). Pickens drew a target on 32.4% of QB Justin Fields' 34 pass attempts and contributed 36.2% of the team's total receiving yards. The lone TD pass went to TE Pat Freiermuth.

Steelers QB Justin Fields accounted for all three offensive TDs in Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Colts. He led the team with 55 yards on 10 carries and scored twice on the ground, from 5 and 2 yards out. Fields also threw for a season-high 312 yards and another score, finding TE Pat Freiermuth from 8 yards out late in the fourth quarter.

Steelers RB Cordarrelle Patterson has been ruled out of Sunday's game vs. the Colts with an ankle injury. RB Jaylen Warren is inactive, leaving RB Najee Harris to dominate work.

Steelers QB Russell Wilson (calf) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Colts. QB Justin Fields gets another start and sits 12th in the Week 4 QB Rankings.

Steelers QB Russell Wilson (calf) is again listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Colts. QB Justin Fields is fully expected to start that one as Pittsburgh goes for its fourth straight win. Fields lands inside the top 12 QBs in our Week 4 Rankings.

Steelers RB Jaylen Warren (knee) is out for Sunday’s game vs. the Colts. We still don’t have any details on his injury or a timeline for his return. Warren’s absence should leave RB Najee Harris in a workhorse role this weekend. RB Cordarrelle Patterson figures to mix in for a handful of touches as the No. 2.

Steelers RB Jaylen Warren (knee) did not practice on Wednesday. HC Mike Tomlin said earlier this week that he expected Warren to be limited today. We're tentatively projecting him to miss Sunday's game vs. the Colts. RB Najee Harris didn't practice on Wednesday but is listed with "rest." He'll be ready for this weekend's game and will be busy if Warren sits.

Steelers HC Mike Tomlin said Tuesday that RB Najee Harris won't have any limitations in practice this week. Harris' arm was in a sling following the Week 3 win over the Chargers, but he'll be ready to go for Sunday's game against the Colts. Harris might play a bigger role than usual because RB Jaylen Warren's availability for that one is in question, according to Tomlin. Warren was scheduled for an MRI on an injured knee, but we still haven't heard the results. Fantasy owners should not be planning on using him in Week 4 lineups.

Steelers RB Najee Harris' right arm was in a sling on Monday, while RB Jaylen Warren is scheduled for an MRI on his knee, according to PennLive's Nick Farabaugh. We should get updates on both guys within the next 24 hours. Cordarrelle Patterson is the top healthy RB in Pittsburgh right now and could be worth a speculative add in deeper leagues. Pittsburgh has RBs Jonathan Ward and Aaron Shampklin on the practice squad. Week 4 brings a plus matchup against the Colts.

Steelers RB Najee Harris rushed 18 times for 70 yards in a Week 3 win over the Chargers. Harris entered halftime with only 3 rushing yards.

Steelers WR Roman Wilson is inactive for today's game vs. the Chargers. The rookie has been working back from a significant ankle injury but was left off this week's final injury report. Wilson is not worth rostering in any redraft leagues right now.

Steelers QB Russell Wilson (calf) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Chargers. QB Justin Fields makes his third straight start. This game currently has a 34.5-point over/under, so don’t expect a ton of fantasy points.

Steelers WR Roman Wilson (ankle) is not listed on the final Week 3 injury report. He’s ready to make his debut against the Chargers on Sunday. We’ll see how big a role the rookie plays, but he’s well off the fantasy radar right now.

Steelers QB Russell Wilson (calf) is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Chargers. He was limited in practice all week. QB Justin Fields is fully expected to get another start. We’ll see if Wilson is available for backup duties.

Jets WR Mike Williams caught his only target in Week 2. But he climbed to a 65% snap rate after playing just 18% of the snaps in the opener. HC Robert Saleh said that Williams "feels really good" and is ready for more work.

Steelers QB Justin Fields appears headed to start another week. The Steelers are preparing to have Fields start against the Chargers this week to give QB Russell Wilson another week to heal his calf injury.

Steelers WR George Pickens took a step back in a Week 2 win over Denver. After a dynamic opener, the young WR managed only 2 catches for 29 yards on Sunday. However, Pickens came close to a huge fantasy day.

Steelers WR Roman Wilson (ankle) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Broncos. We’ll see if the rookie is able to make his NFL debut next week, but he’s well off the redraft radar right now.

Steelers QB Russell Wilson (calf) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Broncos. QB Justin Fields makes another start and has exciting rushing upside against a bad Denver run defense.

Steelers WR Roman Wilson (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Broncos after a limited week of practice. We’ll see if the rookie is ready to make his debut, but he shouldn’t be in your Week 2 fantasy plans.
