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.

Panthers WR Robbie Anderson was sent to the locker room by interim HC Steve Wilks in the 2nd half of Sunday's game vs. the Rams. Anderson got into it with WRs coach Joe Dailey a bit earlier. Carolina would love to find a trade partner for Anderson, but don't be surprised if he's cut this week.

Ravens RB J.K. Dobbins didn't play in the 2nd half of Sunday's loss to the Giants because his knee "tightened up," HC John Harbaugh said afterward. Harbaugh added the MetLife Stadium turf might have been the culprit. Dobbins has been clearly limited in his 4 games since returning from last year's multi-ligament knee injury. We'll monitor his practice participation this coming week, but he'll be a risky Week 7 fantasy play. Baltimore's bye isn't until Week 10.

Bucs HC Todd Bowles said after Sunday's loss to the Steelers that TE Cameron Brate has a neck injury. He made no mention of a concussion, so it sounds like Brate at least escaped that. We should learn more about his status on Monday. Rookie Cade Otton will be in the low-end TE1 mix if Brate misses time.

Colts RB Deon Jackson was knocked out of Sunday's win over the Jaguars with a quad injury. He racked up 42 yards and a score on the ground plus 10 catches for 79 yards before exiting. Jackson's absence left Phillip Lindsay as Indianapolis' top RB. We'll see if Jackson, Jonathan Taylor and Nyheim Hines are available for Week 7

Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle suffered an apparent left shoulder injury last in Sunday's game vs. the Vikings. Stay tuned for an update.

Update: Waddle returned in the 4th quarter.

Bucs TE Cameron Brate was carted off the field in the 3rd quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Steelers. He missed last week's game in the concussion protocol. The Bucs say that Brate has movement in all his extremities, but he's obviously been ruled out for the rest of this one. We'll keep you updated on his situation.

Bills RB Zack Moss is a healthy scratch for today's game vs. the Chiefs. That leaves just Devin Singletary and James Cook in Buffalo's backfield. We'll see if the Bills load up Singletary as an every-down back or work Cooks in some more. We'd bet on the former.

Steelers QB Kenny Pickett exited for a concussion check in the 3rd quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Bucs. We'll update his status when we know more. QB Mitchell Trubisky is in for Pittsburgh.

Update: Pickett has been ruled out with a concussion.

Saints TE Adam Trautman hurt his ankle in the 1st half of Sunday's game vs. the Bengals. He tried to return in the 2nd half but was unable to stay on the field. He's officially questionable to return.

Packers WR Randall Cobb left in the 3rd quarter of Sunday's game against the Jets with a left-ankle injury. He's officially questionable to return, but he came out of the injury tent in tears and then hopped on 1 foot to the cart to ride to the locker room. This seems potentially significant.

Rams DL Aaron Donald (foot) is active for today's game against the Panthers. He belongs in most IDP lineups.

2:40pm EDT 10/16/22

Rams TE Tyler Higbee (ankle) is active for today’s game vs. the Panthers. He got in just 2 limited practices this week and was listed as questionable, so there’s a bit more risk here than usual. But Higbee still sits inside the top 7 TEs across scoring formats in the Week 6 Rankings.

2:40pm EDT 10/16/22

Rams WR Cooper Kupp (foot) is active for today’s game vs. the Panthers. He got in limited practices on Thursday and Friday and was listed as questionable, so it’s fair to assume that Kupp won’t be quite at 100% today. But he remains a must-start in season-long fantasy leagues.

Panthers WR Robbie Anderson is active for today’s game vs. the Rams. He was added to Friday's injury report with an illness and listed as questionable. Hopefully you don’t need to use Anderson in fantasy lineups today.

Panthers QB Baker Mayfield (ankle) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Rams. QB P.J. Walker gets the start, with QB Jacob Eason backing him up.

Patriots WR Kendrick Bourne left in the 1st half of Sunday's game vs. the Browns with a toe injury. He's officially questionable to return. Stay tuned for an update.

Buccaneers S Mike Edwards (elbow) is inactive for today's game against the Steelers.

11:40am EDT 10/16/22

Patriots DL Lawrence Guy (shoulder) is inactive for today's game vs. the Browns. DT Christian Barmore (knee) is active.

Giants DL Leonard Williams (knee) is active for today's game against the Ravens. EDGE Azeez Ojulari (calf) is out after entering the day doubtful.

Saints S Marcus Maye (rib) and CB Paulson Adebo (knee) are active for today's game against the Bengals.
