Green Bay Packers Fantasy Football News | Shark Bites

Packers QB Aaron Rodgers did not practice on Wednesday and is on the injury report with a toe. "I'm definitely playing Sunday," Rodgers told reporters. "Today was a mental day so I think a number of us were either limited or DNPs. Thankful to get a day to just to do some rehab. See how the week plays out practice-wise, but definitely playing Sunday." We'll keep an eye on this, but it doesn't sound like we need to worry about Rodgers' status for Sunday's game vs. the Vikings.

Packers RB Aaron Jones is expected to miss 1-2 weeks with a "mild" MCL sprain, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports. It's just about the best news possible after Jones appeared to suffer a significant injury in the win over Seattle. Green Bay has a Week 13 bye, so the most likely scenario has Jones missing the next 2 games vs. the Vikings and Rams before returning in Week 14. He's worth hanging on to in fantasy football. RB A.J. Dillon, meanwhile, will be an easy top-20 RB while Jones is out.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport confirms that Packers RB Aaron Jones is expected to miss "some time" with his MCL injury. He's scheduled for an MRI on Monday. Rapoport went on to say Jones could miss "a couple weeks" but also mentioned that IR could be an option. We should have a better idea of Jones' timeline for return by the end of today. A.J. Dillon will be a strong fantasy starter for however long Jones is out.

The Packers believe RB Aaron Jones sprained his MCL in the win over Seattle, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports. Jones is scheduled for additional testing on the injured knee. A sprained MCL would be relatively good news but would still likely cost Jones games. We should learn more tomorrow. RB A.J. Dillon will be a strong fantasy play for however long Jones is out.

Packers RB Aaron Jones injured his knee in the 2nd half of Sunday's game vs. the Seahawks. He limped off the field and is officially questionable to return. Stay tuned for an update.

Update: Jones has been ruled out.

The Packers have activated QB Aaron Rodgers from the COVID list, making him officially available for Sunday's game against the Seahawks. Green Bay also added Rodgers to the injury report with a toe issue, but he carries no game status. Rodgers might have tripped over 1 of the photographers chasing anyone who looks remotely like him (with a mask on) in public over the past week.

Packers QB Aaron Rodgers is set to be cleared from the COVID list and start Sunday's game vs. the Seahawks, NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reports. Rodgers hasn't logged an official practice since October 27 -- about 2-and-a-half weeks ago. He participated in meetings virtually throughout this week and will take part in Saturday's walkthrough. The missed time is less of a concern considering this is a 17-year veteran who's been in HC Matt LaFleur's offense since 2019.

Packers DT Kenny Clark is questionable for Sunday's game against the Seahawks with a back injury. Clark put in limited practices all week. We'll check his status Sunday afternoon, but the 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff might make Clark tough to wait for in IDP lineups. Fellow DL Kingsley Keke (concussion) is doubtful. CB Eric Stokes (knee) is questionable.

Ravens WR Sammy Watkins (hamstring) is active for tonight's game vs. the Dolphins. Watkins isn't a reliable fantasy play in his first action since Week 5, but his return muddies WR Rashod Bateman's outlook a bit.

Ravens WR Sammy Watkins (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Thursday night's game vs. the Dolphins. He was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, though, so we're expecting him to play. Watkins isn't a bankable Week 10 fantasy play does add some downside to WR Rashod Bateman.

Packers DT Kenny Clark left Sunday's loss to the Chiefs with a back injury and did not return. We'll see about the severity and timeline for his return. Green Bay hosts Seattle in Week 10.

Ravens WR Sammy Watkins (thigh) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Vikings after getting in limited practices on Thursday and Friday. Watkins “looked good” in Friday’s practice, HC John Harbaugh said, "so I say he has a chance [of playing Sunday].” We wouldn’t trust Watkins in Week 9 fantasy lineups.

Ravens WR Sammy Watkins (thigh) did not practice on Wednesday. That's not a good start for his chances of returning for this weekend's game vs. the Vikings. Watkins' absence would make WR Rashod Bateman easier to trust in fantasy lineups.

Packers QB Aaron Rodgers has tested positive for COVID and will miss Sunday's game against the Chiefs, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. That will give Jordan Love the start. We'll see whether any other Packers follow Rodgers to this week's COVID list, as we saw with Allen Lazard behind Davante Adams last week.

Update: Rodgers is unvaccinated, per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. That means Rodgers is out a minimum of 10 days. He's eligible but not guaranteed to be activated in time to play Week 10.

Packers WR Allen Lazard has been activated from the COVID list and will be back for Sunday's game vs. the Chiefs. WR Davante Adams remains on the COVID list as of Monday afternoon but should be cleared by this weekend.

Packers TE Robert Tonyan tore his left ACL in Thursday night's win over the Cardinals, his agent announced Friday. Tonyan will miss the rest of the season but has a good shot to be ready for the start of the 2022 campaign. His absence leaves the Packers with TEs Marcedes Lewis and Josiah Deguara. We'll monitor that situation, but neither guy is worth adding to fantasy rosters right now.

Packers TE Robert Tonyan hurt his left knee in the 3rd quarter of Thursday night's game vs. the Cardinals. He was in obvious pain but was at least able to get off the field under his own power. We'll update Tonyan's status when we know more.

Packers WR Allen Lazard has joined WR Davante Adams on the COVID list. Both guys are virtual locks to miss Thursday night's game vs. the Cardinals. We'll see if Green Bay loses anyone else for that one. The Packers are currently down to WRs Randall Cobb, Equanimeous St. Brown and Amari Rodgers on the active roster. WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling is eligible to come off IR. WRs Juwann Winfree and Chris Blair are on the practice squad. RB Aaron Jones and TE Robert Tonyan figure to play big roles in the passing game on Thursday night.

Packers S Darnell Savage (concussion) is active for today's game against Washington. OLB Preston Smith (oblique) and CB Kevin King (shoulder) are out.

Packers S Darnell Savage is questionable for Sunday's game against Washington with a concussion. OLB Preston Smith (oblique) and CB Kevin King (shoulder) are also questionable. None is a high-level IDP option.
