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.
The Ravens have agreed to a 5-year, $70 million deal with S Marcus Williams, according to multiple reports. Williams will get $37 million guaranteed. Williams takes over the FS spot in Baltimore and leaves a significant hole in New Orleans' secondary. He's not a strong IDP option.
The Saints are placing a 2nd-round restricted free-agent tender on WR/KR Deonte Harty, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. The former Deonte Harris legally changed his last name to Harty in December in honor of his stepfather. Pelissero says Harty could still draw some interest on the market, though we'd be surprised to see another team surrender a 2nd-round pick just to sign the 24-year-old. Last season marked the 1st time that Harty has collected more targets than returns. His 59 looks ranked 3rd among Saints last year, despite Harty losing 3 games to a suspension.
The Patriots are releasing LB Kyle Van Noy, according to multiple reports. It marks the 2nd straight year that Van Noy has been dumped in the middle of a multi-year contract. The Dolphins cut him last offseason. Van Noy will turn 31 later this month. He remains productive enough to get another shot elsewhere. Just don't expect Van Noy to become more than a sporadic fantasy producer.
Ravens QB Lamar Jackson's ankle "feels great," HC John Harbaugh said Monday. Jackson ended up missing the final 4 games of the season with a bone bruise to that ankle, but it shouldn't impact his offseason.
Titans RB Derrick Henry (foot) is officially active for today's Divisional Round game vs. the Bengals.
Titans RB Derrick Henry (foot) has been activated from IR, putting him on track to play in Saturday's Divisional Round game vs. the Bengals. Henry has been out since suffering a Jones Fracture in his right foot on Halloween. He had surgery a couple of days later and will be playing with a steel plate in that right foot. Henry's role and effectiveness is the biggest question mark of the weekend.
Titans RB Derrick Henry (foot) participated in a padded practice on Tuesday. He still hasn’t been activated off IR, but that’s the expectation ahead of Saturday’s game vs. Cincinnati. "I felt great," Henry said Wednesday via ESPN. "I just wanted to get some pads on. Haven't had them on in a while and got some contact going.” Henry’s last appearance came back in Week 8.
The Titans did not activate RB Derrick Henry (foot) from IR on Saturday, which means he won't play in Sunday's finale against the Texans. That locks in D'Onta Foreman as the lead back in a high-upside matchup. Henry appears on track to return for the playoffs. If Tennessee beats Houston, the Titans will get a 1st-round bye.
Ravens QB Lamar Jackson (ankle) did not practice on Wednesday. The Ravens haven't been eliminated from the playoffs quite yet, but they're a long shot, so there's little reason to push Jackson when he's not at 100%. Look for QB Tyler Huntley to start vs. the Steelers this weekend.
Titans RB Derrick Henry (foot) has been designated to return from IR. That means he'll be back at practice this week. We'd be surprised if Henry played vs. the Texans on Sunday, but he seems to be on track to return for the playoffs. He's now 9.5 weeks removed from suffering a Jones Fracture to his right foot.
The Saints have downgraded S Marcus Williams and C Erik McCoy to out for today's game against the Panthers. Each starter came off the COVID list late in the week and clearly isn't yet ready to play.
Ravens QB Lamar Jackson (ankle) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Rams. QB Tyler Huntley gets another start. He led all QBs in fantasy points in his last start back in Week 15 and finished QB18 in his Week 11 start.
Ravens QB Tyler Huntley remains the "likely" starter vs. the Rams today, per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. QB Lamar Jackson (ankle) hasn't been ruled out yet and might test that ankle in pregame warmups. But all signs point to Huntley getting the nod. We'll get Baltimore's inactives around 11:30 am ET.
The Saints have activated S Marcus Williams and C Eric McCoy from the COVID list, making them available for Sunday's game against the Panthers.
Ravens QB Lamar Jackson (ankle) is listed as questionable for this weekend's game vs. the Rams. He put in a limited practice on Wednesday that didn't go well -- and then sat out on Thursday and Friday. Jackson looks unlikely to play on Sunday. Look for QB Tyler Huntley to get the start.
Patriots WR Nelson Agholor (concussion) is out for Sunday’s game vs. the Jaguars. Jakobi Meyers, Kendrick Bourne and N’Keal Harry will again operate as New England’s top 3 WRs.
Ravens QB Lamar Jackson (ankle) did not practice on Thursday. He was officially limited on Wednesday but was limping around the practice field. Jackson is looking like a long shot to play vs. the Rams this weekend. We've removed him from the Week 17 Rankings and added QB Tyler Huntley.
Ravens QB Lamar Jackson (ankle) got in a limited practice on Wednesday -- his first official workout since going down back in Week 14. Jackson had a "pronounced limp," according to ESPN's Jamison Hensley, and "had trouble jogging." That doesn't sound like a guy who will be anywhere close to 100% this weekend. We'll see if Jackson guts it out vs. the Rams on Sunday, but his rushing ability figures to be limited if he does.
Ravens QB Lamar Jackson (ankle) did not travel with the team to Cincinnati and is out for Sunday's game vs. the Bengals. With QB Tyler Huntley on the COVID list, Baltimore is down to QB Josh Johnson, who signed with the team just 11 days ago. Johnson is 35 and has made just 8 NFL starts -- none since 2018. He did get some action with the Jets earlier this season, completing 27 of 41 passes for 317 yards, 3 TDs and 1 INT in relief of QB Mike White in a wild Thursday nighter vs. the Colts. Johnson might not be a downgrade from Huntley as a passer, but this is still a tough spot considering how little time he's had with the Ravens.
Patriots WR Nelson Agholor (concussion) is out for Sunday's game vs. the Bills. WR Kendrick Bourne remains on the COVID list and is unlikely to play this weekend. WR N'Keal Harry (hip) is listed as questionable after a limited week of practice. He figures to start if he's able to play on Sunday. But WR Jakobi Meyers and TE Hunter Henry will likely be the focal points of New England's passing game.
