Las Vegas Raiders 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.

Patriots WR Jakobi Meyers (knee) is expected to play Dunday against the Browns, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter. That’s not a surprise, given that Meyers played through the same issue last week

Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert (knee) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Vikings. He got in limited practices on Thursday and Friday. We haven’t heard any concern about Mostert’s status, but you’ll need to check back Sunday morning to make sure he’s active.

Patriots WR Jakobi Meyers (knee) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game vs. the Browns. He was in the same boat last week before posting a 7-111-1 line on an 80% snap rate. Meyers should be fine for this weekend's game, but check back around 11:30 am ET to make sure he's active.

Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert (knee) returned to a limited practice on Thursday. That puts him on track to play vs. the Vikings this weekend, although it'd be nice to see him get in a full practice on Friday.

Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert (knee) did not practice on Wednesday. We've heard no mention of an injury, so this could be more of a rest day after Mostert handled 19 touches in last weekend's loss to the Jets. Check back tomorrow for another update.

Patriots WR Jakobi Meyers returned from 2 games missed with a knee sprain to rack up a 7-111-1 receiving line in Sunday's win over the Lions. He drew a team-high 8 targets (38.1% of team pass attempts), as rookie QB Bailey Zappe filled in for Mac Jones Zappe proved efficient, completing 17 of 21 passes for 188 yards (8.95 per attempt). Meyers has now drawn a target on 31.4% of Patriots pass attempts. He looks like at least a weekly WR3 for PPR lineups going forward.

After nudging ahead of Chase Edmonds in recent weeks, Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert took over in Sunday's loss to the Jets. He played 46 snaps vs. 13 for Myles Gaskin and 10 for Chase Edmonds. That included running 20 pass routes to 14 combined for Gaskin and Edmonds. Mostert claimed 18 of 23 RB carries for the game, delivering 113 yards and a TD. TE Durham Smythe ran for the team's only other TD. Edmonds logged just 1 carry for 1 yard and caught neither of his 2 targets. Gaskin ran 4 games for 9 yards and ranked 2nd on the team with 5 targets. He caught 3 of those for 24 yards. Edmonds looks cuttable in many fantasy football leagues at this point.

Patriots WR Jakobi Meyers (knee) is active for today’s game vs. the Lions. It’s a plus matchup. But, between the knee that limited him in practice all week and a rookie QB making his 1st career start, Meyers would be a risky Week 5 fantasy play.

Patriots WR Jakobi Meyers (knee) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Lions. It’s an excellent matchup, but at less than 100% and with Bailey Zappe under center, Meyers would be a shaky fantasy play.

Patriots WR Jakobi Meyers (knee) remained limited on Wednesday. He put in 3 limited practices last week before missing the Packers game, so Meyers' status for Sunday's game vs. the Lions remains uncertain.

The Panthers on Wednesday placed S Jeremy Chinn on IR with the the hamstring injury that knocked him out in the 1st quarter of Sunday's game. S Myles Hartsfield and S Sean Chandler each saw playing-time boosts against the Cardinals. Hartsfield played 95% of snaps, though, and looks like the better fill-in bet. The other starting safety, Xavier Woods, missed Wednesday's practice with his own hamstring injury. We'll see about his status later in the week.

Seahawks QB Geno Smith threw for 320 yards and 2 TDs in Sunday's win at Detroit, his 2nd straight game of 320+ yards. Smith again favored D.K. Metcalf and Tyler Lockett, targeting them with a combined 60% of his pass attempts. Metcalf caught 7 of 10 looks for 149 yards. Lockett posted a 6-91 receiving line on 8 targets. TEs Will Dissly and Noah Fant caught the TD passes. Smith gets a tougher matchup in Week 5 (Saints). After that comes a favorable home date with Arizona.

Panthers S Jeremy Chinn left Sunday's loss to the Cardinals with a hamstring injury. We'll see about his status for Week 5 and beyond.

The Patriots ruled out WR Jakobi Meyers (knee) on Saturday. He was limited in practice all week. We'll see if he’s able to return for a Week 5 meeting with Detroit.

Patriots WR Jakobi Meyers (knee) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Packers. At less than 100% and catching passes from QB Brian Hoyer, Meyers shouldn’t be in your Week 4 fantasy plans.

Patriots WR Jakobi Meyers (knee) was limited in Wednesday's practice. He got in just a limited practice on Friday last week before missing the Ravens game. We'll get another update on Meyers tomorrow.

Seahawks QB Geno Smith racked up 325 yards and 2 TDs on 32-of-44 passing in Sunday's loss to the Falcons. Smith threw 52.3% of his pass attempts at WRs D.K. Metcalf (12) or Tyler Lockett (11). No other Seahawk drew more than 4 looks. Lockett posted a 9-76 receiving line. Metcalf caught 5 balls for 64 yards and a TD. The remaining score went to TE Will Dissly.

Chargers WR Jalen Guyton suffered an ACL tear in Sunday's loss to the Jaguars, according to multiple reports, ending his season. Guyton played just 29 total snaps through 3 weeks, with 3 of his 4 targets coming against Jacksonville.

Titans WR Kyle Phillips (shoulder) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Raiders. Robert Woods, Treylon Burks and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine should operate as Tennessee's top 3 WRs in this one.

Patriots WR Jakobi Meyers (knee) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Ravens. That leaves Nelson Agholor, DeVante Parker and Kendrick Bourne as New England’s top 3 WRs.
