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.
Colts K Matt Gay (neck) is active for today’s game vs. the Titans. He was a full participant in Friday’s practice, so the neck shouldn’t be much of an issue in this one.
Commanders TE Zach Ertz (concussion, shoulder) is active for today’s game vs. the Eagles. His playing time shouldn’t be impacted by last week’s concussion, but Ertz draws a tough matchup against the No. 8 TE defense. See where he sits in the Week 16 TE Rankings.
Commanders TE Zach Ertz (concussion) is "trending toward playing" vs. the Eagles today, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Ertz is listed as questionable, but concussed players who won't get cleared in time to play are usually ruled out on Saturday. We'll get Washington's inactives around 11:30 am ET. Assuming he ends up active, Ertz will be a shaky TE1 play against Philadelphia's eighth-ranked TE defense.
Commanders TE Zach Ertz (concussion, shoulder) is questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Eagles. He got in limited practices on Thursday and Friday but still has work to do to clear protocol. We should get an update on Ertz’s progress on Saturday and will get Washington’s inactives around 11:30 am ET on Sunday.
Colts K Matt Gay (neck) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Titans. He was a full participant in Friday’s practice, so we’re expecting him to play. But you’d be better off going with a healthier kicker in Week 16 fantasy lineups.
Commanders TE Zach Ertz (concussion) returned to a limited practice on Thursday. That at least gives him a chance to be cleared for Sunday's game vs. the Eagles. We'll get another update on Ertz's progress tomorrow.
Colts K Matt Gay has missed the first two practices of the week with a neck injury. We don't have any other details on his status, but fantasy owners should be ready to find an alternative for Week 16 fantasy lineups. We'll update Gay's status again tomorrow.
Commanders TE Zach Ertz (concussion) did not practice on Wednesday. He's unlikely to be cleared in time for this weekend's game vs. the Eagles. Rookie Ben Sinnott led Washington TEs in pass routes last week but is not a recommended Week 16 fantasy play against Philadelphia's eighth-ranked TE defense.
Commanders RB Brian Robinson Jr. managed just 65 rushing yards in Sunday's win over the Saints, who arrived as one of the league's worst run defenses. Robinson did so on 21 carries (3.1 per rush), controlling 87.5% of the team's RB carries for the game. Robinson added 3 receptions for 22 yards on 3 targets.
Commanders QB Jayden Daniels had a good passing day and led his team's rushing in Sunday's victory over the Saints. But he also took a lot of pressure from a defense that entered the day tied for just 22nd in the league in sacks. Daniels went 25-of-31 passing for 226 yards and 2 TDs. He added 11 carries for 66 yards.
Commanders TE Zach Ertz is questionable to return to Sunday's game vs. the Saints with a head injury. He's presumably being checked for a concussion. We'll update Ertz's status when we learn more.
Update: Ertz is out with a concussion. It's his third documented concussion.
Commanders K Zane Gonzalez (foot) is inactive for today's game vs. the Saints. He'll be replaced by K Greg Joseph, who was just called up from the practice squad. Joseph made 13 of 16 FG tries for the Giants earlier this season and owns a career 82.5% FG conversion rate. In a plus matchup in New Orleans, Joseph is a fine fantasy play if you were hoping to use Gonzalez.
The 49ers clearly made it a point to get WR Deebo Samuel going in Thursday night's loss to the Rams. It didn't work. Samuel turned seven targets into three catches and 16 yards. His two carries went for just three yards. Samuel was bottled up after the catch and had a brutal drop on a crossing route in the third quarter that could have gone for a 29-yard TD. He also had a false-start penalty.
Commanders WR Noah Brown is "going to be out for a while," per HC Dan Quinn. In fact, Quinn mentioned the possibility of Brown going on season-ending IR while noting a "significant internal injury." The veteran was operating as Washington’s WR2, but now those snaps will go to Dyami Brown, Olamide Zaccheaus, and Luke McCaffrey. You shouldn’t count on any of those WRs for Week 15 fantasy production at New Orleans. Meanwhile, Terry McLaurin's outlook improves as a fantasy WR2.
Commanders RB Brian Robinson rushed 16 times for 103 yards and 1 score in Sunday's win over Tennessee. A week after suffering an ankle injury, Robinson looked 100% against the Titans.
Commanders QB Jayden Daniels completed 25 of 30 passes for 206 yards and 3 TDs in Sunday’s blowout win over Tennessee. The rookie added his sixth rushing TD of the season.
Commanders WR Noah Brown is questionable to return to Sunday's game vs. the Titans with a rib injury. Washington is up 35-13 early in the fourth quarter, so we doubt we'll see Brown again. He caught three of four targets for 27 yards before exiting.
The Commanders placed RB Austin Ekeler (concussion) on IR, knocking him out for at least the next four games. Washington has a Week 14 bye, so we won't see Ekeler again until Week 18 at the earliest. He can be dropped from all redraft rosters. Jeremy McNichols will slide in as the Commanders' No. 2 RB with Ekeler out, but we could also see RB Brian Robinson get more work in the passing game.
Commanders WR Noah Brown (knee) is not listed on the final Week 13 injury report. He was sidelined on Thursday but returned to a full practice on Friday. Brown should be ready for his usual role against the Titans on Sunday. He’s surprisingly out-targeted WR Terry McLaurin 33 to 25 over the last five games.
Commanders RB Brian Robinson (ankle) is not listed on the final Week 13 injury report after putting in a full practice on Friday. He'll play vs. the Titans this weekend -- and it looks like he'll be ready for a significant role. RB Austin Ekeler (concussion) has been ruled out. That figures to leave Jeremy McNichols as the No. 2 RB, but he'd be a desperation fantasy start.
