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.
Lions QB Jared Goff had another efficient and explosive day against the weak pass defense of the Jacksonville Jaguars. He completed 24 of 29 passes for 412 yards and four TDs with the Lions scoring 52 against the Jaguars
Raiders RBs Zamir White (quad) and Alexander Mattison (ankle) are both questionable to return to Sunday's game vs. the Dolphins. That leaves Ameer Abdullah as Vegas' only healthy RB. (Rookie Dylan Laube is a healthy scratch.) We'll update the situation when we know more.
Jaguars WR Gabriel Davis has been ruled out of Sunday's game vs. the Lions with a knee injury. He finished with one catch on three targets for three yards. Hopefully this news isn't impacting your Sunday.
Broncos S Brandon Jones is inactive for today's game against the Falcons.
Bills WR Amari Cooper (wrist) is active for today’s game vs. the Chiefs. He remained limited in practice all week and is expected to play with a cast on his injured left wrist today. Cooper is a shaky fantasy play against Kansas City’s ninth-ranked WR defense.
49ers TE George Kittle (hamstring) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Seahawks. ESPN’s Adam Schefter said this morning that Kittle will have a “realistic chance” to make it back for Week 12. His absence today leaves Eric Saubert as San Francisco’s lead TE. He’d be a desperation fantasy play. RB Christian McCaffrey and WRs Deebo Samuel, Jauan Jennings, and Ricky Pearsall should pick up extra targets with Kittle out.
Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert suffered a hip injury in the first quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Raiders and is officially questionable to return. His absence leaves Miami's backfield to De'Von Achane and Jaylen Wright. We'll update Mostert's status when we know more.
Update: Mostert returned in the second quarter.
Lions TE Sam LaPorta is "truly questionable" for next week's game vs. the Colts, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. LaPorta's shoulder injury reportedly isn't serious, but it sounds like it might end up costing him a couple of games. TEs Brock Wright and Shane Zylstra are expected to pick up LaPorta's snaps vs. the Jaguars today.
Colts LB E.J. Speed is active for today's game against the Jets. He entered the day questionable with a knee issue but finished the week with a full Friday practice. Use him as planned in IDP lineups.
Patriots S Kyle Dugger is active for today's game against the Rams. He missed the past three weeks with an ankle injury but practiced throughout the week and should be ready for IDP use. Expect Jaylinn Hawkins to join him at safety, with Marte Mapu inactive for the game.
Bears Edge Montez Sweat is active for today's game against the Packers. He entered questionable with an ankle injury but should be good for regular IDP use after finishing the week with a full Friday practice.
Saints WR Mason Tipton is a healthy scratch for today’s game vs. the Browns. He ran a route on 83% of Saints pass plays and totaled 14 targets over the past four weeks. New Orleans will roll with Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Cedrick Wilson, Kevin Austin, and Dante Pettis today. What a group!
Steelers RB Jaylen Warren (back) is active for today’s game vs. the Ravens. He popped up on the injury report on Thursday but got in a limited practice on Friday. The back injury adds risk to a guy who already looked like just a RB3 or Flex play in this matchup.
Jets WR Davante Adams (wrist, illness) is active for today’s game vs. the Colts. He missed the first two practices of the week but was a full-go on Friday. We’re expecting Adams to play his usual role today.
NFL Network's Ian Rapoport confirms that Chiefs RB Isiah Pacheco (leg) is expected to be healthy enough to play in Week 12. But Rapoport adds, "maybe trainers hold him out just as a precaution." Kansas City gets the Panthers next week -- a game they likely feel like they can handle without Pacheco. We'll keep an eye on the situation this coming week. RB Kareem Hunt has handled big volume lately but is averaging just 3.6 yards per carry. We're expecting Pacheco to eventually take back over as the Chiefs' clear lead RB.
NFL Network's Ian Rapoport and ESPN's Adam Schefter report that Steelers RB Jaylen Warren (back) is expected to play vs. the Ravens today. He was added to the injury report and did not practice on Thursday but returned to a limited practice on Friday. Pittsburgh elevated RB Jonathan Ward from the practice squad on Saturday, but that's "considered a precaution," Rapoport adds. It sounds like Warren just needs to pass pre-game tests to play today. The back injury adds risk to what was already a tough rushing matchup. But Warren could be busier than usual in the passing game. The Ravens have allowed the sixth most catches to RBs this season.
Jets WR Davante Adams (wrist, illness) is expected to play vs. the Colts today, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Adams is listed as questionable but got in a full practice on Friday. Interim HC Jeff Ulbrich hinted that it was more the illness than the wrist that kept him out on Wednesday and Thursday. We're projecting Adams to play his usual role today.
ESPN’s Adam Schefter writes that 49ers TE George Kittle (hamstring) is “unlikely” to play Sunday vs. Seattle. Per Schefter, Kittle's injury "is not considered a long-term injury," and the TE is expected to return next week vs. Green Bay. We’ll know his official status around 2:30ET today, but fantasy managers should certainly make other plans. View our Week 11 TE rankings.
The Athletic's Dianna Russini writes that there's "no guarantee" that QB Aaron Rodgers will be back with the Jets in 2025. Rodgers has had a mostly underwhelming season so far, averaging 6.4 yards per pass attempt with 15 TDs vs. seven INTs. The Jets don't owe Rodgers any guaranteed money beyond this season but would pay him $37.5 million if they retain him for 2025. The Jets would own the eighth overall pick of the draft if the season ended today. Rodgers said this week that he wants to continue playing next year, and he'd certainly land a job elsewhere if the Jets decide to move on.
Texans WR Nico Collins (hamstring) is not listed on the final Week 11 injury report. He practiced all week, including full workouts on Friday and Saturday, and will play against the Cowboys on Monday night. The Texans were cautious bringing Collins back from this Week 5 hamstring injury, so we're expecting him to be ready for a full slate of snaps in this one. That lands Collins inside the top five of our Week 11 WR Rankings.
