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 K Chris Boswell (concussion) put in a full practice on Friday. We'll get Pittsburgh's final injury report tomorrow, but it looks like Boswell will be available for Monday night's game vs. the Bears.

Seahawks QB Russell Wilson tweeted Monday that the pin is out of his injured right middle finger. He said: "No more pin. Time to Win." That should mean the QB is on track to play Week 10, after Seattle's bye. We'll certainly watch to confirm.

Washington CB William Jackson III (knee) is inactive for today's game against Denver. That can only help the matchup for Broncos WRs Jerry Jeudy and Courtland Sutton.

Steelers K Chris Boswell is out for the rest of the Sunday's game vs. the Browns after sustaining a concussion on an attempted fake FG. We'll track his progress through the protocol.

Chargers WR Mike Williams (knee) put in a full week of practice and isn’t listed on the final injury report. He’ll be in his usual role in Sunday’s game vs. the Patriots.

Chargers WR Mike Williams (knee) put in a full practice on Wednesday. He was limited to 38% of the offensive snaps in Week 6, but it looks like he'll be back to a full-go for Sunday's game vs. the Patriots.

Bears HC Matt Nagy tested positive for COVID. We'll see if he can get cleared in time for Sunday's game vs. the 49ers. OC Bill Lazor has been calling plays for Chicago the past few weeks, so there's not much of a fantasy impact here.

Washington lead CB William Jackson III is inactive for today's game against the Packers, as expected. That only helps the outlook for the Green Bay passing attack -- especially WR Davante Adams.

Ravens LB Patrick Queen (thigh) is active for today's game against the Bengals. He spent the week limited in practice after seeing limited playing time last week, a game he left but returned to after suffering the thigh injury. Queen makes for a risky IDP play this week.

Top Washington CB William Jackson III (knee) will be inactive for today's game against the Packers. That only enhances an already strong matchup for Packers WR Davante Adams.

Seahawks QB Russell Wilson is "progressing well" in his recovery from finger surgery, according to NFL Network's Mike Garafolo. Wilson is scheduled to have the pin removed from the finger on Friday and has a shot to be back for Week 10's game vs. the Packers, per Garafolo. We'll continue to keep an eye on Wilson's status.

Ravens LB Patrick Queen is questionable for Sunday's game against the Bengals. He's dealing with a thigh injury that knocked him out early in last week's game, but he returned after some time on the sideline. Queen also put in limited practices all week. We'll see about his status Sunday morning.

Jaguars HC Urban Meyer said Monday that he expects to have LB Myles Jack (back) and rookie CB Tyson Campbell (toe) back on the field after the team's Week 7 bye.

Ravens S DeShon Elliott (quad) is active for today's game against the Chargers.

Chargers WR Mike Williams (knee) is active for today’s game against the Ravens. He missed all 3 practices this week with what HC Brandon Staley said was swelling in his knee. There’s been no report on Williams being limited or on a snap count today, but he still comes with elevated risk in Week 6 fantasy lineups.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport hears that Chargers WR Mike Williams (knee) is expected to play vs. the Ravens today. We heard the same from ESPN's Jeremy Fowler on Saturday night. We'll see if we hear anything about Williams being on a snap count over the next few hours. For now, consider him a risk/reward Week 6 fantasy play.

Chargers WR Mike Williams (knee) is expected to play vs. the Ravens on Sunday, "barring a pregame setback," ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reports. We'll look for further updates on Williams' status tomorrow morning. He'll obviously carry elevated risk in fantasy lineups after missing all 3 practices this week. But it'd also be difficult to bench Williams -- unless we hear that he'll be limited -- considering how awesome he's been through 5 weeks.

Chargers HC Brandon Staley said Friday that he's "hopeful" WR Mike Williams (knee) can play vs. the Ravens this weekend. Williams is listed as questionable after missing all 3 practices. "We were being careful with him early in the week," Staley said, adding that Williams has been dealing with swelling in that knee. We'll continue to look for updates on Williams' status and will get the Chargers' inactives around 11:30 am ET on Sunday.

7:20pm EDT 10/15/21

The Seahawks placed QB Russell Wilson (finger) on IR. That knocks him out for at least the next 3 games. Seattle then has a Week 9 bye, so Week 10 is the earliest Wilson could return. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport recently called a Week 10 return the "best-case scenario" for Wilson. QB Geno Smith is in line to start the next 3 games vs. Pittsburgh, New Orleans and Jacksonville.

Washington LB Cole Holcomb finished the week with no injury status for Sunday's game against the Chiefs. He opened with limited Wednesday and Thursday practices because of a shoulder injury. But Holcomb put in a full Friday workout and should be ready for a solid IDP scoring matchup.
