        Green Bay Packers 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.

        Packers QB Jordan Love will have an MRI on his left knee when the team gets back from Brazil, The Athletic's Dianna Russini reports. Love does not have an ankle injury, per Russini, but "it’s just wait-and-see for more information" on the knee. We passed along earlier this morning that former NFL head team Dr. David Chao does not believe Love injured his ACL, but he's certainly not out of the woods as far as a multi-week injury goes. We'll keep you updated on his status.

        Packers QB Jordan Love left Friday night's loss to the Eagles late in the fourth quarter after suffering an injury to his left leg. Video shows a pop in his knee, but neither the team nor the player offered any details after the game. The obvious general concern is that Love tore a ligament in that knee, but former NFL team doctor David Chao doesn't think that's what happened.

        Packers RB MarShawn Lloyd (hamstring) is inactive for tonight’s game vs. the Eagles. The rookie missed a ton of time this summer and won’t be a factor in the short term. RB Emanuel Wilson (hip) and practice-squad call-up RB Ellis Merriweather are active behind RB Josh Jacobs, who figures to dominate touches tonight.

        Packers TE Tucker Kraft (back) is active for tonight's game vs. the Eagles. He projects to operate as the No. 2 TE behind Luke Musgrave and is only in play in one-game DFS contests.

        Packers TE Tucker Kraft (back) is listed as questionable for Friday night's game vs. the Eagles. He was added to the injury report on Wednesday and limited again in Thursday's practice. It's a new injury for Kraft, who missed time earlier in the offseason with a pectoral injury. Kraft shouldn't be in your Week 1 fantasy plans, but his absence would mean more playing time for TE Luke Musgrave.

        Packers RBs MarShawn Lloyd (hamstring) and Emanuel Wilson (hip) are listed as questionable for Friday night's opener vs. the Eagles. Both guys got in limited practices on Wednesday and Thursday and figure to be active tomorrow. But neither is likely to play a big role. RB Josh Jacobs is a good bet to dominate touches against Philly. He sits 10th in the Week 1 RB Rankings.

        Packers RB MarShawn Lloyd (hamstring) was on the field in pads for Sunday's practice. The rookie missed the majority of August with hip and hamstring injuries but is seemingly on track to be available for Friday night's opener vs. the Eagles.

        The Titans traded QB Malik Willis to the Packers for a 2025 seventh-round pick. Willis was the 86th overall pick of the 2022 NFL Draft but flamed out quickly. He made three starts as a rookie, totaling 234 passing yards on 4.8 yards per attempt. He barely saw the field last year, attempting just five regular-season passes.

        Packers HC Matt LaFleur said Saturday that RBs MarShawn Lloyd (hamstring) and A.J. Dillon (stinger) are "TBD" for Week 1.

        Packers insider Zach Kruse expects TE Tucker Kraft to be a "big part of the offense" this season. Kraft missed time earlier this offseason with a pectoral injury but "is starting to come on as Week 1 nears," Kruse adds.

        Packers WR Romeo Doubs’ frame and starting role appears to have him set to be the main receiver target in the red zone. Last season, Doubs and WR Jayden Reed tied with 17 red-zone targets each. Speculation has Doubs’ red zone targets increasing this year.

        Packers RB MarShawn Lloyd exited Saturday's preseason game with a hamstring injury. It is considered "not serious" and he should be ready for the season, according to insider Jordan Schultz.

        Packers RB MarShawn Lloyd left Saturday’s preseason game with a hamstring injury. Lloyd carried once for 8 yards before departing.

        Packers TE Tucker Kraft (pectoral) passed his physical and has been activated from the PUP list. He'd been sidelined since suffering a pectoral injury in the spring.

        Jordan Love and the Packers have agreed to a 4-year extension worth $220 million with a record-setting $75 million signing bonus and $155 million in new full guarantees. Love will now be under contract in Green Bay until 2028. This ties Love with Joe Burrow and Trevor Lawrence for the highest annual salary in league history at $55 million.

        The Packers activated WR Jayden Reed (toe) off the Non-football injury list. He’ll be limited at practice in the short-term, per HC Matt LaFleur.

        Packers QB Jordan Love will not hit the field in training camp without a new contract. Love inked a one-year extension through 2024 last offseason but is looking for a raise after a breakout 2023 campaign. GM Brian Gutekunst believes the two sides are close to an agreement.

        The Packers have placed WR Jayden Reed on the non-football injury list for the start of training camp. We've seen no report on the specific issue sidelining Reed.

        The Chiefs have agreed to a one-year deal with WR Mecole Hardman, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. Hardman, of course, closed out 2023 with his original team after washing out on a one-year free-agent contract with the Jets. He's still heading into just his age-26 season.

        The Commanders have released K Brandon McManus. The move comes less than a week after reports of a lawsuit two flight attendants filed against McManus alleging sexual assault during a team flight when McManus played for the Jaguars. Washington had signed McManus to a one-year, $3.6 million deal just this offseason -- opting to add him instead of bringing back 2023 kicker Joey Slye.
