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.
Cardinals QB Kyler Murray (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Seahawks. He got in 3 limited practices this week. HC Kliff Kingsbury said Friday that Murray will be a game-time decision. It’s a 4:25 pm ET kickoff, but we should get an update on Murray on Sunday morning. QB Colt McCoy (pectoral) is also listed as questionable. But he got in a full practice on Friday and should be available if Murray can't go.
Seahawks RB Chris Carson is expected to have season-ending neck surgery, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. That's no real surprise given the progression of his season so far. It leaves Alex Collins as the primary ball-carrier. He's been dealing with a groin injury but carries no game status into the weekend. Travis Homer claimed the backfield pass-catching lead at Green Bay in Week 10 but had only totaled 3 targets over his previous 4 games.
Seahawks S Jamal Adams (groin) and CB D.J. Reed (groin, knee) are questionable for Sunday's game against the Cardinals. We'll keep an eye out for updates between now and Sunday's release of inactives.
Cardinals S Budda Baker (heel) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Seahawks. HC Kliff Kingsbury said Friday, though, that Baker will play, according to the team website. We'll confirm his status Sunday afternoon.
Washington CB Kendall Fuller (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Panthers. He spent Thursday and Friday limited after missing Wednesday's workout.
The Titans have ruled LB David Long (hamstring), LB Rashaan Evans (ankle) and EDGE Bud Dupree (abdomen). CB Janoris Jenkins (chest) is questionable after missing Thursday's and Friday's practices. EDGE Harold Landry (hamstring) and DL Jeffery Simmons (ankle) carry no injury designations into the game despite managing injuries this week. Landry spent the week limited with a hamstring issue. Simmons sandwiched a missed Thursday's practice between 2 limited workouts. Both look fine to use in IDP lineups, though.
The Saints cut K Brian Johnson and signed K Brett Maher. Maher isn't a viable Week 11 fantasy play with the Saints missing RB Alvin Kamara and both OTs.
Texans DE Jonathan Greenard (foot) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Titans. He put in limited practices all week. We'll see about his status Sunday morning.
The Lions have ruled EDGE Trey Flowers (knee) out for Sunday's game against the Browns. S Tracy Walker (concussion) is questionable. We'll check his status Sunday.
Dolphins DL Christian Wilkins (quad) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Jets. He put in limited practices the past 2 days after opening the week on the sideline. LB Andrew Van Ginkel (back) is also questionable. He participated on a limited basis all week. S Brandon Jones finished the week with a full Friday practice after 2 limited days and does not carry an injury status into the game.
Saints RB Alvin Kamara (knee) is out for Sunday’s game vs. the Eagles. He was limited on Wednesday before missing Thursday and Friday’s practices, so it looks like he suffered a setback. Kamara’s absence again leaves Mark Ingram as New Orleans’ lead back. He handled 14 carries and 7 targets on an 85% snap rate last week. That’s RB1 usage, but it’s worth noting that the Saints will be without both LT Terron Armstead and RT Ryan Ramczyk on Sunday.
Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa (finger) is not listed on the final injury report. He was a full-go in practice on both Thursday and Friday. That finger should be close to 100% this week, making Tua a viable fantasy spot starter in a plus matchup vs. the Jets.
Browns QB Baker Mayfield (knee, foot, shoulder) is not listed on the final injury report. He was a full participant in Friday’s practice but admitted this week that he’s as banged up as he’s ever been. Even in Sunday’s plus matchup vs. the Lions, Mayfield is an unexciting QB2.
Lions RB Jamaal Williams (thigh) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Browns. He’s not a fantasy option, but if he returns he’d likely steal a handful of touches from RB D’Andre Swift.
Bears EDGE Khalil Mack needs foot surgery and will miss the rest of the season. He and the team had hoped that rest would allow him to recover enough to return, but that proved to not be the case. We'll see about Mack's recovery heading into 2022. Trevis Gipson looks like he'll continue as the primary guy opposite Robert Quinn. He has 0 QB hits in elevated playing time over the past 3 contests. Chicago also placed ILB Danny Trevathan (knee) back on IR, which he spent a stint on earlier this year. That re-opens the spot for Alec Ogletree next to Roquan Smith. For this week, the Bears have ruled DL Akiem Hicks (ankle) out for this week's game against the Chargers. S Eddie Jackson (hamstring) is questionable. He put in limited practices Thursday and Friday after missing Wednesday's workout.
Lions QB Jared Goff (oblique) is listed as doubtful for Week 11. It's confirmation that QB Tim Boyle will make his first career start vs. the Browns on Sunday. Fire up the Cleveland DST.
Bills LB Tremaine Edmunds (hamstring) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Colts. He missed practice Wednesday and Thursday after sitting out last week's win over the Jets. Edmunds returned for a limited Friday workout, though. We'll check his status Sunday. IDP managers might be better off if he doesn't play, as an active Edmunds would carry elevated re-injury risk. If he's out, A.J. Klein would see a full-time role again.
Colts LB Darius Leonard (ankle, hand) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Bills. He played nearly every snap against Jacksonville in Week 10 and then put in limited practices Thursday and Friday. HC Frank Reich told the team website Friday that he's hopeful Leonard will play.
Cowboys WR Amari Cooper has landed on the COVID list. He's out for Sunday's game vs. the Chiefs and the Thanksgiving game vs. the Raiders. Cooper's absence should mean target boosts for CeeDee Lamb, Michael Gallup and Dalton Schultz. Cedrick Wilson is the favorite for #3 WR duties, but Noah Brown and Malik Turner might also mix in.
The Steelers have ruled EDGE T.J. Watt out for Sunday night's game against the Chargers. He suffered hip and knee injuries in the Week 10 tie with Detroit and didn't practice this week. We'll see whether Watt can make it back for Week 12. Pittsburgh also ruled out lead CB Joe Haden, good news for Chargers WR Mike Williams.
