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.

Patriots TE Hunter Henry (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday night’s game vs. the Broncos. He only got in a limited practice on Friday. We’re not expecting Henry to play, and he’d be a shaky fantasy starter if he does.

Raiders RB Josh Jacobs (quad, illness) returned to a limited practice on Friday. We're tentatively expecting him to play vs. the Chiefs on Monday afternoon, but we'll see how he's listed on the final injury report tomorrow.

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker (shoulder) only got in a limited practice on Friday this week and is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Titans. HC Pete Carroll said Friday that Walker is “good to go” for this one, but check back around 11:30 am ET on Sunday to make sure he’s active.

Seahawks QB Geno Smith (groin) put in a full week of practice and isn’t listed on the final injury report. He’s ready to go for Sunday’s game against a banged-up Titans defense. Smith checks in 12th in the Week 16 QB Rankings.

Titans TE Chig Okonkwo missed Friday's practice with an illness and is listed as questionable for Week 16. It's unlikely to keep him from playing vs. the Seahawks, but you'll need to check back around 11:30 am ET on Sunday to make sure Okonkwo is active.

Titans QB Will Levis (ankle) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Seahawks. He only got in a limited practice on Friday. We’re expecting Levis to miss this one, leaving QB Ryan Tannehill to get the start. But we’ll continue to keep you updated on the situation leading up to Sunday’s 1 pm ET kickoff.

The Packers have ruled LB De'Vondre Campbell (neck) out for Sunday's game against the Panthers. That pushes Isaiah McDuffie into the starting lineup for what will be his eighth start. McDuffie tallied at least 5 solos in each of those seven previous starts and averaged 9.1 total tackles. He'll be an option for tackle-friendly IDP lineups. McDuffie sits in LB3 territory of our Week 16 rankings. Quay Walker spent the whole practice week limited but carries no injury designation into the game. He should be fine to use. Green Bay also ruled out S Darnell Savage (shoulder).

Titans DT Jeffery Simmons (knee) will miss his third straight game Sunday against the Seahawks. That's a big blow to a run defense that struggled without him the past two weeks. Tennessee allowed 148 rushing yards to Houston and 158 to Miami the game before. The matchup certainly improves for Seattle RB Kenneth Walker III. Tennessee has also ruled out S Amani Hooker (knee), S K'Von Wallace (quad), LB Jack Gibbens (back), and CB Sean Murphy-Bunting (hip). It could be a nice week for the entire Seattle offense.

Vikings LB Jordan Hicks is questionable for Sunday's game against the Lions. He put in full practices all week, in his first action following four weeks on IR for compartment syndrome after a shin injury. Hicks tweeted a hype video Friday pointing to his return, but it ended with the message "soon." So we'll have to see whether Hicks will play. If he does, we'd assume he'll play at least near his usual role and carry intriguing IDP upside. We've had Hicks in our Week 16 LB rankings but will continue to track his status. Fellow LB Ivan Pace Jr. popped up on the injury report Friday with a shoulder issue that limited his practice. He's also questionable. DT Harrison Phillips (back) is questionable after managing just one limited practice for the week. You should lean away from using him if possible. The defense will miss CB Byron Murphy (knee). The matchup with Detroit's high-ceiling offense doesn't look attractive regardless of who's active (or not).

Dolphins RBs Raheem Mostert (knee, ankle) and De’Von Achane (toe) are off the final Week 16 injury report. Mostert was a full-go on Friday; Achane got in limited practices on Thursday and Friday. We’re not expecting either guy to be impacted by their injuries vs. the Cowboys on Sunday.

Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill (ankle) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Cowboys. He got in limited practices on Thursday and Friday. HC Mike McDaniel said Friday that Hill had a good week with no setbacks and should be available on Sunday. Hill can be penciled back into fantasy lineups. We’ll keep you updated on his status leading up to 4:25 pm ET kickoff.

Jaguars WR Zay Jones (knee, hamstring) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Bucs. He only got in a limited practice on Friday. We’re not expecting Jones to play but will look for further updates on his status. We won’t get Jacksonville’s inactives until a little after 2:30 pm ET on Sunday.

Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence (ankle, concussion) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Bucs. He returned to a limited practice on Friday after sitting out the previous two days. HC Doug Pederson on Friday called Lawrence’s status for this one a “coin flip.” We should get another update on his progress on Saturday when the team travels to Tampa Bay. QB C.J. Beathard will get the start if Lawrence isn’t cleared.

Texans WR Nico Collins (calf) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Browns. He said Friday that he expects to return for this one. But between the calf and QB Case Keenum, Collins lands in WR3 territory in the Week 16 Rankings.

Texans QB C.J. Stroud (concussion) did not practice all week and is out for Sunday’s game vs. the Browns. He’s seemingly made very little progress through the protocol and isn’t a lock to make it back for Week 17. QB Case Keenum starts again this weekend.

Packers WR Dontayvion Wicks (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game vs. the Panthers. He played through this issue last week and should be fine for Sunday. With WRs Christian Watson and Jayden Reed likely out, Wicks will join Romeo Doubs as Green Bay's top two WRs.

Packers WR Christian Watson (hamstring) remained sidelined in practice all week and is listed as doubtful for Sunday’s game vs. the Panthers. We’ll see if he can make it back for Week 17.

The Packers list WR Jayden Reed (toe, chest) as questionable for Sunday's game vs. the Panthers. He didn't practice all week, though, and seems unlikely to play. Reed should be on fantasy benches for now. We'll get Green Bay's inactives around 11:30 am ET on Sunday.

Packers RB A.J. Dillon (thumb) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Panthers. HC Matt LaFleur sounded optimistic on Friday about Dillon’s chances of returning for this one. He’d be a desperation fantasy play but would ding RB Aaron Jones’ outlook.

Colts WR Michael Pittman (concussion, shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Falcons. He’s cleared concussion protocol but had a shoulder added to the injury report on Friday and was limited in practice. We’ll look for additonal updates on that situation and get Indianapolis’ inactives around 11:30 am ET on Sunday.
