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.
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said Friday morning that he expects WR CeeDee Lamb (shoulder) to be ready for the Week 14 Monday nighter against the Bengals. Take Jones' medical report with a hefty grain of salt, but it's better than the alternative. We'll keep you posted on Lamb's status when the Cowboys get back to work next week.
Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb was sidelined for much of the second half of Thursday's win over the Giants. He wound up with a season-low 67% snap rate. HC Mike McCarthy said afterward that Lamb has a shoulder injury but gave no other details. This is presumably the same shoulder that Lamb hurt back in Week 8. He didn't miss any time then, but we'll see if this latest issue threatens his Week 14 availability. Lamb at least gets 11 days to heal up with the Cowboys hosting on Bengals on Monday Night Football.
Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb only caught two of his six targets for 39 yards. With the Cowboys emphasizing the rushing game, the targets simply weren’t enough for Lamb to overcome the poor QB play from Cooper Rush.
Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb (back, foot) is not listed on the final injury report for this weekend’s game vs. the Commanders. After sitting out on Thursday, he returned to a full practice on Thursday. We’re expecting him to play his usual role on Sunday. It hasn’t necessarily been pretty, but Lamb has totaled 22 targets and 14 catches with QB Cooper Rush over the last two weeks.
Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb (back, foot) did not practice on Thursday. That followed a limited workout on Wednesday. Lamb played through the back issue vs. Houston on Monday night, but the foot is new. We'll look for more info on his status and see how he's listed on Friday's final injury report.
Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb was targeted 12 times against the Texans. He caught eight passes for 93 yards, but couldn’t find the end zone with QB Cooper Rush at the helm.
Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb (back) is active for tonight's game vs. the Texans. He was added to the injury report on Saturday and listed as questionable, but there never seemed to be much concern about his availability for this one. QB play remains a bigger concern than the back for Lamb.
The Cowboys added WR CeeDee Lamb to the injury report Saturday with a back injury that has him questionable for Monday night's game against the Texans. HC Mike McCarthy reportedly indicated it's not a big deal, though.
Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb tallied just 21 yards on 6 receptions in Sunday's loss to the Eagles, the first game since QB Dak Prescott suffered a hamstring injury. That's not helping any fantasy teams. But Lamb did, at least, maintain strong shares of the receiving work.
There's a "strong possibility" that the Cowboys use QB Trey Lance in certain packages vs. the Eagles today, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. QB Cooper Rush will get the start and figures to play the majority of snaps. But we could see Dallas take advantage of Lance's athleticism, particularly in short-yardage and red-zone situations. You should be avoiding Cowboys QBs in Week 10 fantasy lineups. The Lance news isn't great for WR CeeDee Lamb, but he still belongs in most fantasy lineups.
The Cowboys are placing QB Dak Prescott on IR with his hamstring injury, EVP Stephen Jones said Friday. That knocks Prescott out for at least the next four games. But the Fort Worth Star-Telegram hears that "the expected timeline is expected to trend closer to six weeks or more." The earliest Prescott could return is Week 14. A 6-week absence would have him out until Week 16. Dallas' season could be over for all intents and purposes at that point. Prescott is very droppable in 1-QB leagues without an IR spot.
Cowboys QB Dak Prescott (hamstring) is out for Sunday’s game vs. the Eagles. The team is still deciding whether Prescott will go on IR, which would cost him at least four games. QB Cooper Rush will make his first start this weekend since 2022. He owns a career 60.0% completion rate and 6.5 yards per attempt. While not the worst backup in the world, Rush is obviously a significant downgrade from Prescott for Dallas’ offense.
Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb (shoulder) is not listed on the final Week 10 injury report. He practiced all week, including a full workout on Friday, and will play against the Eagles on Sunday. There’s some re-injury risk with the shoulder. And Lamb will be catching passes from backup QB Cooper Rush. But he remains a strong target bet and would be tough to leave out of fantasy lineups. See where Lamb sits in the Week 10 WR Rankings.
Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb (shoulder) got in a limited practice on Wednesday. It looks like he's on track to play vs. the Eagles this weekend. An active Lamb would be tough to bench, but he sits significantly lower than usual in our Week 10 Rankings because of the shoulder injury and the absence of QB Dak Prescott.
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said Tuesday that WR CeeDee Lamb (shoulder) has a "good chance" to play vs. the Eagles this weekend. We take anything Jones says with a hefty grain of salt, but this matches previous reporting that Lamb could be ready by Sunday. We'll keep a close eye on his status throughout the week. For now, we're projecting him in for Week 10.
Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb is considered "week to week" with a sprained AC joint in his right shoulder, according to the Fort Worth Star-Telegram's Nick Harris. "The expectation is that he could play against Philadelphia on Sunday, but he would need to have a positive week of rehab and log at least one full practice by Saturday," Harris adds. We'll keep a close eye on Lamb's progress throughout the week. Of course, between the shoulder injury and QB Dak Prescott's absence, Lamb will have a lot working against him if he does suit up on Sunday.
Cowboys QB Dak Prescott is expected to miss "multiple weeks" with the hamstring injury he suffered in Sunday's loss at Atlanta, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero.
Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb injured his right shoulder in the first half of Sunday's game vs. the Falcons. He was able to return -- but aggravated the issue late in the fourth quarter. We'll update his status when we know more.
Update: Lamb returned to catch a two-point conversion late in the fourth quarter but was obviously hurting.
Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb delivered his biggest fantasy line so far this season in Sunday night's loss to the 49ers. He racked up 13 catches for 146 yards and 2 TDs on 17 targets. That accounted for a whopping 44.7% of Dak Prescott's pass attempts for the game and more than doubled his nearest teammate (Jake Ferguson, 8 targets).
Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb posted merely fine numbers in Sunday's lopsided loss to the Lions: 7 receptions, 89 yards. But he also saw his largest target share of the season. Lamb's 14 targets constituted 42.4% of QB Dak Prescott's pass attempts for the game. That followed a four-game stretch of down usage vs. his 2023 numbers.
