Fantasy Football News & Latest NFL Updates

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.

Ravens RB Gus Edwards suffered a hamstring injury in the 4th quarter of Thursday night's game vs. the Bucs. He's officially questionable to return, but we'd be surprised if he gets back out there. Edwards' absence leaves Baltimore with RBs Kenyan Drake and Justice Hill.

Ravens WR Rashod Bateman has been ruled out of Thursday night's game vs. the Bucs with a foot injury. It's presumably the same issue that cost him Weeks 5 and 6. Baltimore has a Week 10 bye, so we wouldn't be surprised if Bateman is held out of Weeks 9's game vs. the Saints.

Buccaneers EDGE Shaq Barrett left Thursday night's game against the Ravens with an ankle injury, rode to the locker room on a cart and was quickly ruled out. That doesn't bode well for the longer-term prognosis. We'll watch for word on a specific diagnosis and return timeline.

Packers WR Allen Lazard (shoulder) conceded Thursday that he's unlikely to play vs. the Bills on Sunday night. Lazard told reporters that he heard "a snap, crackle and pop" in his shoulder near the end of the 3rd quarter of last week's game -- but that he doesn't expect to be out long. His absence this weekend figures to leave Sammy Watkins and Romeo Doubs as Green Bay's top 2 WRs. We'll see if WR Christian Watson can make it back from his hamstring injury.

NFL Network's Tom Pelissero hears that a "bad flu" has kept Adams out of practice on Wednesday and Thursday. "There's optimism he’ll be over it and ready to go Sunday vs. the Saints," Pelissero adds. Adams can stay penciled into Week 8 fantasy lineups for now, but we'll keep a close eye on him over the next few days.

Ravens TE Mark Andrews is questionable to return to Thursday night's game vs. the Bucs with a shoulder injury. He entered this one with a bad knee. We'll update Andrews' status when we know more.

Update: Andrews has been ruled out for the game.

Packers WR Allen Lazard (shoulder) missed practice again on Thursday. He's looking unlikely to play vs. the Bills on Sunday night, but we'll see if Lazard is able to get back on the field tomorrow. WRs Sammy Watkins (hamstring) and Christian Watson (hamstring) remained limited on Thursday.

Seahawks WR Tyler Lockett (hamstring) was upgraded to full participation on Thursday. It looks like the hamstring troubles are behind him. Lockett should be busy vs. the Giants this weekend with WR D.K. Metcalf (knee) expected to be out.

49ers WR Deebo Samuel (hamstring) remained sidelined for Thursday's practice. He's in danger of missing this weekend's game vs. the Rams. We'll see if Samuel practices Friday and how he's listed on the final injury report. WR Jauan Jennings (hamstring) also missed practice again on Thursday.

Titans QB Ryan Tannehill (ankle) returned to a limited practice on Thursday. We're tentatively expecting him to start this weekend's game vs. the Texans, but we'll see how he's listed on the final injury report on Friday afternoon.

Saints TE Juwan Johnson was added to Thursday's injury report with a hamstring and limited in practice. So his availability for this weekend's game vs. the Raiders is now in question. Check back tomorrow for another update on Johnson. TE Adam Trautman (ankle) remained sidelined on Thursday.

Saints WRs Michael Thomas (foot) and Jarvis Landry (ankle) missed practice again on Thursday. Both guys are long shots to play vs. the Raiders this weekend.

Raiders RB Josh Jacobs (foot) remained limited in Thursday's practice. We haven't heard any concern about his status for this weekend's game vs. the Saints, but check back Friday afternoon for another update on his status.

Raiders TE Darren Waller (hamstring) remained limited in Thursday's practice. He seemingly has a shot to return for this weekend's game vs. the Saints. We'll see how he's listed on Friday's final injury report.

Raiders QB Derek Carr (back) was upgraded to full participation in Thursday's practice. He'll be ready to go for this weekend's game vs. New Orleans.

Raiders WR Davante Adams (illness) missed his 2nd straight practice on Thursday. Players rarely miss games with illnesses, but check back tomorrow for another update on Adams' status for this weekend's game vs. the Saints.

Cardinals RBs James Conner (ribs) and Darrel Williams (knee) remained limited in Thursday's practice. We'll see what they do on Friday and how they're listed on the final injury report for this weekend's game against the Vikings.

Lions WR Amon-Ra St. Brown (concussion protocol) remained limited in Thursday's practice. He should still be on track to be cleared in time for Sunday's game vs. Miami, but check back tomorrow for another update.

Lions TE T.J. Hockenson (knee) returned to a limited practice on Thursday. He should be fine for this weekend's plus matchup vs. the Dolphins, but we'll see how Hockenson is listed on tomorrow's final injury report.

Cowboys WR Noah Brown (foot) missed practice again on Thursday. His absence this weekend vs. the Bears would leave a few extra targets for WRs CeeDee Lamb and Michael Gallup.
