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.

Bucs TE Rob Gronkowski (ribs) is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game against the Saints after a limited week of practice. We’re expecting Gronk back for this one, but stay tuned to Shark Bites for further updates.

Patriots TE Jonnu Smith (shoulder) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Chargers. Smith shouldn’t be in your Week 8 fantasy plans, but his absence would be a boost to TE Hunter Henry.

The Rams have ruled DT Sebastian Joseph-Day (chest) out for Sunday's game against the Texans. Greg Gaines looks like the fill-in at NT.

Cowboys QB Dak Prescott (calf) is listed as questionable for Sunday night’s game against the Vikings. He was limited in practice all week. Prescott felt and looked good in practice by all accounts, but he’s admitted that the team has the final say on whether he plays Sunday night. That decision is expected to be made on Saturday. QB Cooper Rush will make his 1st career start if Prescott is out. Stay tuned.

Dolphins WR DeVante Parker (hamstring, shoulder) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Bills. He was in the same boat last week and ended up inactive. We’ll get Parker’s game status around 11:30 ET on Sunday, but he shouldn’t be in your Week 8 fantasy plans.

Lions RB Jamaal Williams (thigh) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Eagles. He was added to the injury report as a limited participant on Thursday and limited again on Friday. Williams has been playing through questionable tags for most of the season, so we’re expecting him to be out there on Sunday. But his status is at least worth checking on when we get Detroit’s inactives.

The Rams have given WR DeSean Jackson permission to seek a trade, HC Sean McVay said Friday. D-Jax won't play vs. the Texans this weekend. He totaled just 15 targets through 7 weeks, so there's no tangible fantasy impact here. We'll see if Jackson lands elsewhere.

Bills TE Dawson Knox (hand) is out for Sunday’s game vs. the Dolphins. TE Tommy Sweeney will be atop the depth chart for this one but would be a total flier in fantasy lineups.

The Browns have ruled lead CB Denzel Ward (hamstring) out for Sunday's game against the Steelers. DE Jadeveon Clowney (ankle, groin, knee) is questionable. He played through a questionable tag last week but didn't practice at all this week despite the longer layoff following a Thursday night game. Clowney also replaced a chest issue for Week 7 with the groin this time around. Given the total lack of practice, it's probably better to not use him even if he's active.

Jets WR Corey Davis (hip) is listed as doubtful for this weekend's game vs. the Bengals. He hurt his hip on Thursday and then didn’t practice on Friday. HC Robert Saleh suggested Friday that WR Denzel Mims will step into Davis' role -- but he can't be trusted in fantasy lineups with QB Mike White under center.

The Bears have officially ruled OLB Khalil Mack out for Sunday's game against the 49ers, as expected. HC Matt Nagy said Friday that they haven't decided yet whether to place Mack on IR to give his ailing foot time to heal. DE Akiem Hicks (groin) and S Tashaun Gipson (hip) are questionable.

Giants WR Sterling Shepard (hamstring) got in his 2nd straight limited practice on Friday. He's seemingly on track to return for Monday night's game vs. the Chiefs, but we'll get another update on his status tomorrow.

Giants RB Saquon Barkley (ankle) missed practice again on Friday. He's not going to play vs. the Chiefs of Monday night, giving RB Devontae Booker another start.

Giants WR Kenny Golladay (knee) remained sidelined on Friday. He looks like a long shot to play vs. the Chiefs on Monday night, but we'll see if Golladay is able to get on the practice field tomorrow.

Giants WR Kadarius Toney (ankle) returned to a limited practice on Friday. It gives him a shot to play vs. the Chiefs on Monday night. We'll see what Toney does on Saturday and how he's listed on the final injury report.

Broncos WR Jerry Jeudy was given Friday off with soreness in his ankle after practicing the previous 3 days. HC Vic Fangio still expects Jeudy to play vs. Washington on Sunday, but it's a situation worth monitoring. Jeudy will be a risk/reward fantasy play if he ends up active.

Colts WR T.Y. Hilton (quad) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Titans. He put in a full practice on Friday, though, so expect him to play. It’s good news for QB Carson Wentz, but Hilton is just a fantasy flier until we see him make it through at least 1 game healthy.

Bengals RB Chris Evans (hamstring) is out for Sunday's game against the Jets. Joe Mixon and Samaje Perine will handle all of Cincinnati's backfield work.

Steelers TE Eric Ebron is out for this weekend’s game against the Browns after injuring his hamstring in Thursday’s practice. Ebron had already fallen behind TE Pat Freiermuth on the target totem pole. But Ebron’s absence is a slight boost to Freiermuth’s Week 8 outlook.

Browns WR Jarvis Landry (knee) is not listed on the final injury report. He only got in limited practices on Thursday and Friday but is evidently in no danger of missing this weekend's game vs. the Steelers. Landry is a low-end WR3 for that one. WR Donovan Peoples-Jones (groin) has been ruled out.
