Tyrice Knight 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.

The Seahawks have agreed to a three-year, $33 million deal with LB Ernest Jones IV. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports that Jones gets $15 million guaranteed. Jones got traded from the Rams to the Titans and then Tennessee to Seattle last season. He played full-time snaps at every stop and finished the season among the top 20 fantasy LBs (depending on your format).

ESPN's Brady Henderson reports that the Seahawks will be releasing LB Tyrel Dodson. The veteran has started all nine Seattle games this season and come off the field for just 10 total snaps. But he also ranks 70th in Pro Football Focus run-defense grade among 78 LBs who have played at least 200 snaps. Dodson has fared much better in coverage (10th). But the Seahawks apparently either disagree or don't care.

Seahawks LB Jerome Baker is inactive for tonight's game against the Lions because of a hamstring injury. He entered the day questionable but managed just one limited practice after missing last week's game. Rookie Tyrice Knight should get a second straight start in his place. Knight played just 57% of snaps a week ago but can be an emergency fill-in for IDP lineups.
