Zack Moss Fantasy Football News | Shark Bites

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.

Bengals RB Chase Brown led the backfield with 44 yards on 15 carries in Week 7. He didn't find the end zone but ended up playing ahead of RB Zack Moss.

Bengals RB Chase Brown led teammate Zack Moss in basically every category in Sunday night's win over the Giants. He played more snaps (33-24), got more carries (10-6), ran more routes (20-14), drew more targets (3-1), and beat Moss in yards per touch (5.3 to 2.1). The RBs also appeared to get different treatment after their second-half fumbles.

Insider Jordan Schultz confirms that Bengals RB Chase Brown (quad) will play against the Giants on Sunday night. HC Zac Taylor said the same on Friday, despite Brown ending up questionable on the final injury report. It doesn't sound like the quad will be an issue vs. New York. Brown figures to continue splitting the backfield with Zack Moss and is a borderline RB2 for Week 6 fantasy lineups.

Bengals RB Zack Moss (foot) is not listed on the final injury report for Sunday night's game vs. the Giants. He went from no practice on Wednesday to limited participation on Thursday to full participation on Friday. RB Chase Brown (groin) is also expected to play against New York, but the injury report suggests that Moss is the healthier Bengals back.

Bengals RBs Zack Moss (foot) and Chase Brown (quad) will play vs. the Giants on Sunday night, HC Zac Taylor said. Both guys were limited on Thursday but practiced again on Friday. It sounds like they'll both be ready for their usual roles this weekend. Over the past two weeks, Brown has out-carried Moss 27 to 24, while Moss has out-targeted Brown eight to six. We're projecting a similar split in the Week 6 RB Rankings.

Bengals RB Zack Moss (foot) returned to a limited practice on Thursday. RB Chase Brown (quad) was also limited on Thursday, after not being on the injury report on Wednesday. Cincinnati's Week 6 backfield is totally up in the air at this point. We'll see what Moss and Brown do on Friday and how they're listed on the final injury report for Sunday night's game vs. the Giants. Trayveon Williams is Cincinnati's No. 3 RB.

Bengals RB Zack Moss (foot) did not practice on Wednesday. He appeared to get banged up late in last week's loss to the Ravens, and his status for Sunday night's game vs. the Giants is now uncertain. Moss' absence would turn RB Chase Brown into a must-start. We'll see if Moss gets back on the field tomorrow.

Bengals RB Chase Brown and Zack Moss both had 15 carries in the game. Brown went for 80 yards and two TDs while hauling in two catches for 12 yards. Moss had 51 yards rushing but caught four passes for 27 yards and a TD.

Bengals QB Joe Burrow was 29 of 38 for 324 yards and three TDs in the loss to the Commanders while targeting WR Ja'Marr Chase seven times. Chase had six catches for 119 yards and two TDs. Tee Higgins was targeted six times, including a near TD grab, but only ended with three catches for 39 yards.

RB Zack Moss led the Bengals in carries, rushing yards, and backfield targets in Sunday's loss to the Patriots. His 9 carries tripled Chase Brown's total, accounting for 75% of the team's RB rushes in a quiet offensive performance. Moss ran well on that light work, with his 44 yards coming out to 4.9 per rush. Brown tallied just 11 yards on his three rushes. Brown caught all three of his targets for 12 yards, while Moss tallied 2 receptions for 17 yards on 4 targets. He also ran for the team's lone TD from 5 yards out in the third quarter.

Bengals RBs Chase Brown and Zack Moss appear headed for a 50/50 backfield split. After Brown took the majority of first-team snaps early in camp, the expectation has shifted to more of a split backfield, like most expected.

Bengals RB Chase Brown has been taking the majority of first-team snaps at RB for the first few days of camp, per Charlie Clifford.

Bengals QB Joe Burrow (wrist) has been fully cleared for the start of training camp, HC Zac Taylor said Monday. Burrow's 2023 season ended in November with an injury to his right, throwing wrist that required surgery. He resumed throwing early this year and participated in May's OTAs.

Bengals RB Chase Brown spent much of the offseason training with independent receiver coach Drew Lieberman. Brown and Lieberman worked on everything from the fundamentals of catching the football to the finer points of route running. Lieberman was blown away by the progress Brown made. “I’ve never seen a transformation like it,” he said.

NFL Network reports that the Bengals are releasing RB Joe Mixon. This doesn't come as a huge surprise, given the annual reports of it being possible. At the same time, Cincinnati has also agreed to a two-year deal with Zack Moss. The former Colt figures to share the backfield with 2023 fifth-round pick Chase Brown. We'll head toward summer assuming Moss will get the larger share of the workload. But his $4.5 million salary for 2024 doesn't necessarily guarantee him a "lead" role. Mixon, meanwhile, is coming off a rebound season and should get a shot elsewhere. We'll see whether the release knocks Mixon further below his RB27 Underdog Fantasy ADP. He's still worth a look in that range of best ball drafts but adds risk as long as he's without a team. Moss should settle into low-RB2 range, while Brown probably should be more of a low RB3.

Colts RB Zack Moss (forearm) is active for tonight’s game vs. the Texans. It’ll be his first action since Week 15. Moss is just a DFS flier but figures to eat into RB Jonathan Taylor’s workload at least a bit.

Colts RB Zack Moss (forearm) is listed as questionable for Saturday night’s game vs. the Texans. He put in full practices on Wednesday and Thursday, so we’re expecting him to play. Moss isn’t much of a fantasy option but figures to siphon at least a few touches from RB Jonathan Taylor.

Colts RB Zack Moss (forearm) is out for Sunday's game vs. the Raiders. That should ensure another big workload for RB Jonathan Taylor, who handled 18 carries and one target in last week's loss to the Falcons.

Colts RB Zack Moss (forearm) got in a limited practice on Wednesday. He's not a Week 17 fantasy option, but his return could put a dent in RB Jonathan Taylor's workload vs. the Raiders.
