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.
Ravens RB Gus Edwards took over the backfield Sunday against the Jaguars, in his return from a hamstring injury. He handled a team-high 16 carries, 84.2% of the team's RB rushing attempts. RB Kenyan Drake played half as many snaps in all and ran just 2 more routes than Edwards. He split time with Justice Hill. They combined for 3 rushes and 1 target. Edwards took his 16 run for just 52 yards but saved his fantasy line with a 1-yard TD early in the 4th quarter. Week 13 brings a Denver defense that has been weaker against the run than the pass for a while.
Ravens RB Gus Edwards (hamstring, knee) is active for today’s game vs. the Jaguars. He’s the best bet to lead Baltimore RBs in carries today, but it’s tough to know exactly what the backfield split will look like between Edwards, Kenyan Drake and Justice Hill.
Ravens RB Gus Edwards (hamstring, knee) is expected to play vs. the Jaguars today, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Edwards got in full practices on Thursday and Friday, so he should be at least close to 100%. Edwards led Baltimore's backfield with 16 carries in his lone full game this season, but it's unclear exactly what the backfield split between Edwards, Kenyan Drake and Justice Hill will look like today.
Ravens RB Gus Edwards (hamstring, knee) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Jaguars. He got in full practices on Thursday and Friday, and HC John Harbaugh said Friday that he’s "optimistic" Edwards will play. Assuming he does, he’ll be a risk/reward RB3 in fantasy lineups. We’d expect Edwards to lead RBs Kenyan Drake and Justice Hill in carries.
Ravens RB Gus Edwards (hamstring, knee) was a full participant in Thursday's practice. That should put him in line to play vs. the Jaguars this weekend, but we'll get another update on Edwards tomorrow.
Ravens RB Gus Edwards (hamstring, knee) put in a limited practice on Wednesday. He was limited last week before missing the Panthers game, so Edwards' status for this Sunday's game vs. the Jaguars remains uncertain. We'll get another update tomorrow.
Despite the returns of WRs Keenan Allen and Mike Williams, WR Josh Palmer led Chargers receivers in Sunday night's loss to the Chiefs. Palmer paced the team in targets (10), receptions (8), yards (106) and claimed both of QB Justin Herbert's TD throws. Williams' early departure after he aggravated his sprained ankle certainly helped. Allen, meanwhile, finished 2nd in targets (8), catches (5) and yards (94). No other charger drew more than 3 targets. We'll see about Williams' status heading into a Week 12 visit to Arizona.
Chargers QB Justin Herbert posted a season-high 9.3 yards per pass attempt in Sunday night's loss to the Chiefs, finishing with 280 yards on 23-of-30 passing. He got WR Mike Williams back only briefly, as Williams tweaked his sprained ankle after just 1 target. WR Keenan Allen, however, racked up 5 catches for 94 yards among 8 targets in his most extensive action of the season. Allen had appeared for abbreviated stretches in just 2 previous games because of a nagging hamstring injury. There's room for Herbert to be a fantasy difference maker the rest of the way, with the league's 2nd-best remaining QB schedule.
Raiders LB Denzel Perryman (ribs) is active for today's game against the Broncos. His return hurts the chances of LB Jason Brown seeing full playing time.
Lions WR D.J. Chark (ankle) is officially active for today’s game vs. the Giants. It’s unclear how big a role he’ll play in his 1st action since Week 3, so Chark isn’t a recommended fantasy start today.
Ravens RB Gus Edwards (hamstring) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Panthers. That again leaves backfield duties to Kenyan Drake and Justice Hill. Drake racked up 24 carries and 2 targets in Baltimore’s win over the Saints, prior to the Week 10 bye.
We've got a good ol' fashioned Rapoport vs. Schefter battle on our hands! NFL Network's Ian Rapoport hears that Ravens RB Gus Edwards (hamstring) is not expected to play vs. the Panthers today. Schefter reports that Edwards is expected to play, "but it could be in a limited manner." It sounds Edwards should be on fantasy benches even if he ends up active today. But his status will have a significant impact on where RB Kenyan Drake settles in the final RB Rankings. We'll get Baltimore's inactives around 11:30 am ET.
The Ravens don't expect RB Gus Edwards (hamstring) to play today against the Panthers, "though a pregame workout could change minds," according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. We'll obviously be watching for confirmation, but plan on RB Kenyan Drake leading the Baltimore backfield in this one.
NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports that the Commanders will continue starting QB Taylor Heinicke. QB Carson Wentz is reportedly not yet ready to return from his finger injury, but the team plans to stick with Heinicke even after Wentz is ready. It makes sense. The team is 3-1 with Heinicke behind center this season, 2-4 with Wentz. The latter, however, does hold edges in TD rate, INT rate and passer rating. Heinicke leads Wentz in QBR and yards per attempt. He has also been good for WR Terry McLaurin's target counts, whereas Wentz's presence boosted Curtis Samuel.
Lions WR D.J. Chark (ankle) has been activated from IR. That puts him on track to return for Sunday's game vs. the Giants. Chark has been out since Week 3 due to a setback with the fractured ankle he suffered in September of 2021. Chark tallied 18 targets over the first 3 games of the season but caught just 7 for 98 yards and 1 score. He might be worth an add in deeper fantasy leagues but shouldn't be in Week 11 lineups.
Ravens RB Gus Edwards (hamstring) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Panthers. Edwards led Ravens RBs with 16 carries in his lone healthy game this season, but his Week 11 volume is uncertain coming off this hamstring injury.
Ravens RB Gus Edwards (hamstring) put in another limited practice on Thursday. He's seemingly on track to return for this weekend's game vs. the Panthers, but we'll get another update on his status tomorrow.
Ravens RB Gus Edwards (hamstring) was limited in Wednesday's practice. That should put him on track to play vs. the Panthers this weekend, but we'll track his progress over the next few days.
The Lions have designated WR D.J. Chark to return from IR. Shark hasn't played since Week 3 because of an ankle injury. The team now has 3 weeks to decide whether to return him to the active roster. We'll see how soon Chark actually gets back into the lineup, and we'll need to see at least 1 game from him before considering him for fantasy football lineups. Chark collected 7 catches for 96 yards across the 1st 3 games of the year.
Lions WR D.J. Chark (ankle) has been designated to return from IR. He's expected "to do a little bit" in Wednesday's practice, per insider Tim Twentyman. It doesn't sound like Chark will be ready to play vs. the Giants this weekend, but we'll monitor his progress.
