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 forecast for tonight's Dolphins-Bills game calls for temperatures in the mid-20s and potentially heavy snow. If there's good news, it's that winds are expected to be manageable: 5-10 mph sustained with gusts of 10-15 mph. These are still less-than-ideal conditions for the passing and kicking games, though. We've made some adjustments to our projections for this game. Check out the updated rankings.
Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa (ankle) is not listed on the final injury report for Sunday night’s game vs. the Chargers. He put in a full practice on Friday, and HC Mike McDaniel said afterward that Tagovailoa’s ankle won’t be an issue on Sunday.
Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa (ankle) got in a limited practice on Wednesday. He's fully expected to start Sunday night's game vs. the Chargers, but we'll continue to monitor his status over the next few days.
The ankle injury that Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa suffered late in Sunday's loss to the 49ers is not believed to be significant, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. Tagovailoa reportedly could have re-entered the game and is expected to start next weekend's game vs. the Chargers, Pelissero adds. We'll keep an eye on Tua's practice participation this coming week, but it sounds like he'll be available for Week 14 fantasy lineups.
Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa suffered an ankle injury late in Sunday's loss to the 49ers. QB Skylar Thompson finished out the game. We'll look for an update on Tagovailoa's injury. He took 3 Nick Bosa sacks in this one.
Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa diced up the Browns defense for 285 yards and 3 TDs in Week 10. One score went to Tyreek Hill, while the others went to FB Alec Ingold and reserve WR Trent Sherfield. As usual, Tua was highly efficient, with only 7 incompletions on 32 attempts (78.1%). He's now the QB6 in fantasy PPG this season. He’ll remain a strong fantasy option in Week 12 (vs. Houston) following a Week 11 bye.
Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa kept the party going against Chicago, tossing for 302 yards and 3 TDs. His scores went to Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle and Jeff Wilson. The 3rd-year QB now ranks 1st league-wide in YPA, QBR and passer rating. He’s top-5 in completion rate and INT rate. We simply can’t say enough about his growth -- and the job done by HC Mike McDaniel. Week 10 brings a home matchup with a Cleveland squad coming off a bye.
Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa delivered 382 yards and 3 TDs against the Lions in Week 8. After getting down 21-7 in the 1st half, he played mistake-free football. As usual, he leaned on Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle, with the pair accounting for 77% of his yardage. This one always shaped up as a high-upside spot against a bad Detroit defense, and Tua capitalized with the overall QB1 performance. He’ll remain a top-12 guy for the road ahead, including Sunday at Chicago.
Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa returned Sunday night for his 1st game action since the scary concussion at Cincinnati in Week 4. He completed 21 of 35 passes in the win over the Steelers for 261 yards and 1 TD. Tagovailoa took nary a sack, avoided turnovers and even ran for 15 yards on 4 rushes. WR Tyreek Hill led the offense with 13 targets and 7 catches (for 72 yards), while WR Jaylen Waddle paced the group with 88 yards (on 5 targets, 4 receptions). TE Mike Gesicki drew 7 targets for the 2nd straight game but managed just 3 catches for 27 yards. The whole group gets a high-ceiling matchup at Detroit in Week 8, with solid-to-good spots the next 2 weeks as well vs. Chicago and Cleveland.
Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa is not listed on the Week 7 injury report. It's confirmation that he's cleared concussion protocol and will start Sunday night's game vs. the Steelers. Tua hasn't made it through a game healthy since Week 2 but opened the season with QB22 and QB2 finishes.
Dolphins HC Mike McDaniel said Monday that QB Tua Tagovailoa will work as the starter in practice this week and is expected to be ready for Sunday night's game against the Steelers, according to NFL Network's Cameron Wolfe. Tagovailoa, of course, last played in the Thursday night loss to Cincinnati in Week 4. We'll watch his status this week, but expect the Miami QB to be a viable starting option for fantasy football lineups in Week 7.
Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa cleared concussion protocol on Saturday, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports. Tagovailoa will be held out of Sunday's game vs. the Vikings but is expected to return for Week 7.
Dolphins QB Teddy Bridgewater (concussion, pectoral) is listed as questionable for this weekend's game vs. the Vikings. He got in a full practice on Friday, so it looks like he'll be available to back up QB Skylar Thompson, who will draw the start. QB Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) has been ruled out. He was listed as a full participant on Friday, so it looks like he has a chance to return for Week 7.
Dolphins HC Mike McDaniel said Wednesday that he plans to start QB Skylar Thompson vs. the Vikings this weekend. McDaniel said QB Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) will be inactive for that one. QB Teddy Bridgewater has a chance to clear concussion protocol by Sunday but would back up Thompson in that case. Thompson is a 7th-round rookie out of Kansas State, where he posted a 62% completion rate and 8.0 yards per attempt across 5 seasons. Thompson had an impressive preseason, ranking 15th among 77 QBs in Pro Football Focus' passing grades. He went 19-of-33 (58%) for 166 yards (5.0 YPA), 0 TDs and 1 INT in relief of Bridgewater vs. the Jets last week. Thompson is just a low-end QB2 for Week 6 and should be considered a downgrade for Miami's skill-position guys.
Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa is set to return to the field and throw on Wednesday, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Tagovailoa remains in the concussion protocol and is "highly unlikely" to play vs. the Vikings on Sunday, per Rapoport. But Tua has reportedly made good progress over the past few days, so a Week 7 return seems feasible. Teddy Bridgewater or Skylar Thompson will start at QB for Miami this weekend.
Dolphins HC Mike McDaniel said Monday that QB Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) is not ready for football activities yet. “I’m not really thinking about his timeline, as I’ve said before,” McDaniel said. “We’re just trying to get him as healthy as possible. We’re pretty much in a 12 to 24-hour reoccurring evaluation process. He’s doing well.” Tagovailoa seems like a long shot for Week 6 and might be out beyond that.
As expected, Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa (concussion, back, ankle) is out for Sunday’s game vs. the Jets. He might be out for a while. QB Teddy Bridgewater draws the start this weekend and has some spot-start appeal in the plus matchup, as long as WRs Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle play.
Dolphins HC Mike McDaniel told reporters Monday that QB Tua Tagovailoa will miss the Week 5 game against the Jets and that he has no specific return timeline yet. The QB, of course, is in the league concussion protocol after leaving Thursday night's game on a stretcher. We'll watch for more on his situation. Teddy Bridgewater takes over the high-upside passing game in the meantime.
