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.
Broncos HC Nathaniel Hackett conceded Wednesday that it's "not looking good" for WR Courtland Sutton (hamstring) to play vs. the Chiefs this weekend. Hackett labeled Sutton "day to day" earlier this week, so perhaps he ends up missing only 1 game. Sutton's absence this weekend boosts WR Jerry Jeudy's fantasy outlook.
Broncos HC Nathaniel Hackett labeled WR Courtland Sutton "day to day" with the hamstring injury he suffered in the loss to Baltimore. It sounds like Sutton avoided a significant injury, but we'd still consider him iffy for this weekend's game vs. the Chiefs. We'll watch his practice participation throughout the week.
Broncos WR Courtland Sutton was knocked out of Sunday's game vs. the Ravens with a hamstring injury. We should get an update on the severity on Monday.
Broncos WR Courtland Sutton (illness) is active for today’s game vs. the Ravens. He was added to the injury report and did not practice on Friday, adding some downside to his Week 13 fantasy profile.
Broncos WR Courtland Sutton (illness) is expected to play vs. the Ravens on Sunday, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. Sutton was added to the injury report and did not practice on Friday due to an illness, but it's unlikely to be a limiting factor tomorrow.
Broncos WR Courtland Sutton (illness) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Ravens. He was added to the injury report and did not practice on Friday. Guys are usually able to play through illnesses, but you’ll need to check Shark Bites around 11:30 am ET on Sunday to make sure Sutton is active.
ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that Jets HC Robert Saleh informed his team this morning that QB Zach Wilson won't start Sunday's game against the Bears. Schefter did not mention who will start in Wilson's place. The Jets' website currently lists Mike White as the backup, Joe Flacco as the #3 QB -- and Flacco has recently been a healthy scratch on game days. Flacco, of course, started the 1st 3 games this season while Wilson was out and posted bigger passing numbers on huge volume. He also completed just 58.7% of his passes as the team opened 1-2. White got 3 starts last year and threw for 405 yards and 3 TDs in his 1st outing, but then endured 2 lackluster losses. There's not a good option here, but we're happy to see the Jets not simply sticking with the status quo.
Jets HC Robert Saleh would not commit to QB Zach Wilson as his Week 12 starter on Monday. “We’re keeping everything on the table," Saleh said. The Jets had been winning in spite of Wilson -- but that ended in Sunday's loss to the Patriots, when Wilson went 9 of 22 for 77 yards. He's completed just 55.6% of his passes this season, averaging 6.8 yards per attempt with 4 TDs and 5 INTs. Saleh wouldn't say whether he'd go with QB Joe Flacco or QB Mike White if Wilson is benched. None of those guys should be in your Week 12 fantasy plans, but Flacco or White would be at least a slight boost for New York's skill-position players.
Saints TE Adam Trautman (ankle) put in a full practice on Saturday and isn't listed on the final injury report. He'll be back for Monday night's game vs. the Ravens after missing the previous 2 weeks. Trautman isn't a fantasy option but does put a slight dent in TE Juwan Johnson's outlook.
Chargers TE Donald Parham has been placed on IR with his hamstring injury. He'll miss at least the next 4 games and can be dropped from all redraft rosters. Parham's absence is a slight boost for TE Gerald Everett.
Chargers TE Donald Parham did not practice on Thursday due to a hamstring injury. He just cleared the concussion protocol but now looks iffy for this weekend's game vs. Atlanta. Parham's absence would be a slight boost to TE Gerald Everett's fantasy stock.
Chargers TE Donald Parham has cleared the concussion protocol and is on track to play vs. the Falcons this weekend. He's not a fantasy option but does add some downside to TE Gerald Everett. When we last saw Parham in Week 6, he ran a route on just 18% of pass plays and drew 3 targets (5% share).
Saints TE Adam Trautman (ankle) did not practice on Wednesday. If he remains out for this weekend's game vs. the Raiders, TE Juwan Johnson will be a low-end spot-start option in fantasy lineups.
The Dolphins on Monday placed S Brandon Jones on IR for the knee injury that knocked him out of Sunday night's game. HC Mike McDaniel didn't say whether Jones would miss the rest of the season but said he expected to have more info by Wednesday. Eric Rowe is the next man up for Miami.
Dolphins S Brandon Jones left in the 3rd quarter of Sunday night's win over the Steelers with a left-knee injury. He needed a lot of help getting off the field, so this one could be significant. Dr. David Chao said that by video, there's fear of an ACL tear. We'll see what the team says Monday. Eric Rowe replaced Jones in the lineup.
Chargers TE Donald Parham (concussion) is out for Sunday’s game vs. the Seahawks. His absence makes TE Gerald Everett a safer fantasy play.
Chargers TE Donald Parham is in the concussion protocol, HC Brandon Staley said Tuesday. Parham will have trouble getting cleared in time for Sunday's game vs. the Seahawks. He saw 3 targets on an 18% route rate in the win over the Broncos, so his absence is a slight boost for TE Gerald Everett.
Broncos WR Courtland Sutton mustered only 2 catches for 14 yards against the Chargers in Week 6. This outcome surfaced despite the Bolts benching starting CB J.C. Jackson in the 2nd half. Sutton saw only 3 targets, behind both Jerry Jeudy (7) and Mike Boone (4). Sutton entered the night with 50+ yards in 5 straight, so this performance was certainly an outlier. But it’s a reminder that this passing game will continue to carry volatility for at least the foreseeable future. Week 7 turns up a home matchup with the Jets.
Chargers TE Donald Parham caught all 3 of his targets for 53 yards in Week 6. This followed a 1-target, 0-catch debut in Week 5. The 6'8 skyscraper carries some appeal in ultra-deep TD-only leagues, but note that he ran only 11 routes against Denver. That ranked behind both Gerald Everett (37) and Tre’ McKitty (17).
Saints TE Adam Trautman is expected to miss Thursday night's game against the Cardinals after leaving Sunday's loss with an ankle injury, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. "Early signs are that he's avoided a serious issue," Fowler adds. Juwan Johnson should benefit from Trautman's absence and be a TE2-level option for fantasy football lineups in Week 7.
