Fantasy Football News & Latest NFL Updates

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.

Seahawks WR D.K. Metcalf (hand) returned to a full practice on Thursday. It's confirmation that he'll be ready for his usual role vs. the Dolphins this weekend. Metcalf sits 14th in our Week 3 WR Rankings.

Titans RB Tyjae Spears (ankle) returned to a limited practice on Thursday. That seemingly puts him on track to play vs. the Packers this weekend, but we'll see how Spears is listed on the final injury report tomorrow. He'd be no better than a low-end RB3 if he suits up, but he'd siphon touches from lead back Tony Pollard.

Vikings WR Jordan Addison (ankle) did not practice on Thursday. He's looking unlikely to play vs. the Texans this weekend. We'll let you know how Addison is listed on the final injury report on Friday afternoon.

Texans RB Joe Mixon (ankle) remained sidelined on Thursday. He's in serious danger of missing this weekend's game vs. the Vikings. RB Dameon Pierce (hamstring) also missed practice again on Thursday. Grab RB Cam Akers if he's available in your league. He'll be a top-30 RB play if Mixon and Pierce are out.

Colts K Matt Gay (quad) returned to a full practice on Thursday after sitting out on Wednesday. It looks like he'll be ready to kick vs. the Bears this weekend. He's not a great fantasy option with the Colts' implied total at 22.5 points.

Jets LB C.J. Mosley is inactive for tonight's game against the Patriots because of a toe injury. His absence leaves full-time duty for Jamien Sherwood next to Quincy Williams but doesn't change the outlook for the team defense. Check our updated LB rankings to see where the active Jets have landed.

Bengals WR Tee Higgins (hamstring) put in a limited practice on Thursday. It was his first practice since hurting his hamstring exactly two weeks ago. Higgins seemingly has a shot to play vs. the Commanders on Monday night, but we'll keep you updated on his progress over the next few days. The timing of that game could make Higgins a tricky situation for fantasy owners.

Niners TE George Kittle missed practice with hamstring tightness Thursday. ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that the TE's status for Sunday's game against the Rams "is in question."

Bears WR Keenan Allen (heel) did not practice on Thursday. That's five straight missed practices for the 32-year-old. He seems unlikely to play against the Colts this weekend, but we'll get another update on Allen's status tomorrow afternoon.

Chargers QB Justin Herbert (ankle) returned to a limited practice on Thursday. HC Jim Harbaugh said yesterday that he expected Herbert to play vs. the Steelers this weekend -- and this puts him on track to do so. Herbert won't be at 100%, though. And the challenging matchup leaves him out of QB1 consideration.

Packers QB Jordan Love (knee) "has a chance" to play vs. the Titans this weekend, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. “I wouldn’t be surprised if he plays this week,” a Packers source told Schefter. “It’s definitely day-by-day like he said, and 50-50 at best right now.” Love was officially limited in Wednesday's practice.

Jets LB C.J. Mosley is questionable for Thursday night's game against the Patriots because of a toe injury. Mosley didn't practice this week, which doesn't bode well for his outlook even if he's active. We've knocked him down the Week 3 rankings for that reason. If Mosley's out, then Jamien Sherwood would join Quincy Williams as full-timers.

Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson (knee) got in a limited practice on Wednesday. We're tentatively projecting him to play vs. the Ravens this weekend, but we'll keep you updated on his status over the next few days.

Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb (ankle) did not practice on Wednesday. "Sounds like nothing major," NFL Network's Tom Pelissero tweeted. Lamb can stay penciled into Week 3 fantasy lineups for now. We'll let you know if he gets back on the practice field tomorrow.

Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert (chest) got in a limited practice on Wednesday. That gives him a shot to return for this weekend's game vs. the Seahawks. Miami could certainly use him with QB Skylar Thompson under center. We'll track Mostert's progress over the next few days.

Seahawks WR D.K. Metcalf (hand) did not practice on Wednesday. We've seen nothing to suggest that he's in danger of missing this weekend's game vs. the Dolphins, but his status bears monitoring over the next few days.

Seahawks RB Ken Walker (oblique) did not practice on Wednesday. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport said Sunday that Seattle will take "extreme caution" with Walker and that he could be looking at a multi-week absence. We're projecting RB Zach Charbonnet to again be a workhorse back in this weekend's game vs. the Dolphins.

Titans RB Tyjae Spears (ankle) did not practice on Wednesday. He told reporters afterward that he'll play vs. the Packers this weekend, but we'll see about that. Spears did not return to last week's game after hurting his ankle. We'll update his status again tomorrow.

Chargers HC Jim Harbaugh said Wednesday that he expects QB Justin Herbert (ankle) to play vs. the Steelers this weekend. Herbert did not practice on Wednesday but is "getting better every day," Harbaugh said.

Eagles WR A.J. Brown (hamstring) did not practice on Wednesday. He told ESPN's Lisa Salters that he expects to miss "a couple of weeks" with this hamstring injury, so fantasy owners should not be counting on him in Week 3 fantasy lineups. We'll let you know if Brown's prognosis improves.
