Seattle Seahawks Transactions

Saturday, January 14

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Seattle Seahawks running back DeeJay Dallas (ankle, quad) was considered questionable after being listed as limited in the team's practice on Thursday but is expected to suit up for a Wild-Card matchup against the San Francisco 49ers. Dallas was given opportunities in each of Seattle's last three regular-season games and should continue to serve in a complementary role to starter Kenneth Walker III. He projects as an uninspiring DFS option this weekend against a San Francisco defense that has allowed the fewest PPR fantasy points to running backs this year.
		Seattle Seahawks tight end Noah Fant (knee) and running back DeeJay Dallas (ankle, quadriceps) are both active for the wild-card game on Saturday against the San Francisco 49ers. Fant and Dallas were listed as questionable to play, but they'll both be active in a tough matchup against one of the best defenses in the NFL. Fant will be on the cheap side in DFS, but he's touchdown-dependent. In the two previous matchups against San Fran in 2022, he caught seven of his eight targets for 43 yards and one touchdown. Rookie Kenneth Walker III is the unquestioned lead back in Seattle's backfield, so there will be very few snaps and touches available for Dallas on Saturday. He should be avoided in playoff leagues in this one.

		Seattle Seahawks running back DeeJay Dallas (ankle, quadriceps) was officially listed as questionable heading into wild-card weekend. The 24-year-old has served as a backup or even third-string back throughout the season. To add a limitation on top of that while rookie Kenneth Walker III is off of the injury report should be a sign to fantasy managers to just stay away from playing him in any format this postseason. Whether he's healthy or not, he's not someone to trust against one of the best defenses in the league in the San Francisco 49ers.
		Seattle Seahawks rookie running back Kenneth Walker III (ankle) is no longer appearing on the injury report on Thursday. The rookie has played a big part in the offensive success of the Seahawks this season, as he amassed 1,215 total yards from scrimmage and nine rushing touchdowns. Removing him from the injury report is huge news, but his two games against the San Francisco 49ers didn't go too well. He could only post 10 and 47 yards, respectively, in both games with no touchdowns. While he was a solid fantasy contributor all season, he'll be hard to trust against this defense.
		Seattle Seahawks tight end Noah Fant (knee) was removed from the injury report on Thursday and will play on Saturday against the San Francisco 49ers. The fourth-year tight end turned in a lackluster year with just one game of more than 50 receiving yards and four touchdowns total. He did score against the 49ers in their last matchup while adding five catches for 32 yards. Having another weapon on the field is better for quarterback Geno Smith, but Fant's likelihood of turning in a good fantasy game is not very high.

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Seattle Seahawks running backs Kenneth Walker III (ankle) and DeeJay Dallas (ankle, quadriceps) both missed practice on Wednesday. Walker was a full participant on Tuesday, while Dallas has now missed the first two practices of the week. The Seahawks are likely just resting Walker ahead of Saturday's wild-card showdown against the San Francisco 49ers, but Dallas could be in real danger of sitting out this weekend. The 22-year-old Walker sat out with his ankle injury in Week 14, but he has played ever since and has totaled 450 scrimmage yards and no touchdowns in four games. He'll be Seattle's unquestioned lead back in a tough matchup against San Fran's D, which will likely lead many to fade him in playoff lineups. In his two games against the Niners, Walker has 16 carries for only 57 yards and no TDs, adding six catches for 37 yards through the air.
		Seattle Seahawks tight end Noah Fant (knee) returned to a limited practice on Wednesday after he sat out on Tuesday. Fant has been playing through a knee injury of late and should be fine to play this Saturday against the San Francisco 49ers. He finished with two touchdowns in the final four games of the season, including one against the Niners in Week 15. In the first meeting against San Fran in Week 2, Fant caught only two passes for 11 yards. The 25-year-old has been a touchdown-dependent TE2 streamer all year for fantasy managers, and that should continue into the postseason. Fant could also continue to lose some valuable targets to fellow tight end Colby Parkinson.

Wednesday, January 11

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Seattle Seahawks tight end Noah Fant (knee) and running back DeeJay Dallas (ankle, quadriceps) were listed as non-participants on Tuesday's practice estimation. The team conducted a walkthrough. Fant and Dallas have been battling injuries late in the season, but they both should return to practice on either Wednesday or Thursday and should be active this Saturday for the wild-card game against the San Francisco 49ers. Neither player is particularly attractive in fantasy lineups against one of the best defenses in the NFL, but Fant could pay off as a low-cost TE sleeper in DFS games. The 25-year-old has scored twice in his last four games and has caught 13 passes for 104 yards in that span. Dallas played only 11 offensive snaps in Week 18 and is the clear backup to impressive rookie Kenneth Walker III.

Tuesday, January 10

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Dee Eskridge (hand) has been designated to return from the injured reserve. The 25-year-old suffered a broken hand returning kickoffs in Week 10. He has been sidelined since then, but has a chance to return for the postseason. The Seahawks have been using Cade Johnson and Dareke Young as their extra wideouts. However, Eskridge would be an upgrade over them, so we'll see when he's cleared to get back on the field.

Sunday, January 08

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Seattle Seahawks running back Travis Homer (ankle) won't suit up for the Week 18 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. The 24-year-old has been placed on the injured reserve with a high-ankle sprain. He already lost his change-of-pace duties to DeeJay Dallas earlier in the season. Honestly, Homer wasn't going to have a big role even he if was healthy for this contest. The expectation is that Kenneth Walker III will be the lead back with Dallas as the primary backup on Sunday.
		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (shin) is officially active for Week 18. He had been listed as questionable. Lockett missed the Seahawks' first two practices this past week, but he returned on Friday and has been trending in the right direction ever since. The veteran receiver's presence will be huge as the Seahawks need a win (plus a Packers loss or tie) in order to secure a playoff berth. From a fantasy perspective, Lockett should bounce back as a solid WR2 option this week.

Saturday, January 07

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said that wide receiver Tyler Lockett (shin) "looked good today" in practice on Friday. When asked if he thinks Lockett will play in the Week 18 regular season finale against the Los Angeles Rams (he's listed as questionable) on Sunday, Carroll said "oh yeah." Lockett was limited on Friday after missing practice Wednesday and Thursday, and Carroll said earlier this week that Lockett was determined to suit up this weekend in a must-win game. The 30-year-old will most likely be out there, but how effective will he actually be after returning from a one-game absence due to a fractured index finger to catch only two passes for 15 yards in Week 17? The Seahawks will be going all out to beat the Rams and Lockett should bounce back, but there's no denying he's incredibly risky for starting fantasy lineups.
		Seattle Seahawks running back Travis Homer (ankle) is doubtful ahead of the Week 18 showdown with the Rams. Fortunately, Kenneth Walker III (illness, ankle) practiced in full on Friday after sitting out the previous two sessions, so he'll probably be out there for the must-win matchup. With that said, DeeJay Dallas (ankle) was cleared to play, meaning Homer likely wouldn't have seen enough action to benefit fantasy managers.

Friday, January 06

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (shin) missed his second straight day of practice on Thursday. Lockett made his return in Week 17 after missing one game due to a broken left index finger but suffered a shin injury and is now questionable for the Week 18 regular season finale against the Los Angeles Rams in a must-win contest. The Seahawks are calling him day-to-day, though, and it sounds as though the 30-year-old pass-catcher will push to play on Sunday. Lockett could still play this weekend, even if he doesn't log any practice time. However, after returning to a two-catch performance and now dealing with two different injuries, it won't make fantasy managers very confident that he'll do much against the Rams if he's active. If Lockett can't play, Laquon Treadwell, Penny Hart and rookie Dareke Young would be asked to step up behind DK Metcalf.
		Seattle Seahawks running backs Kenneth Walker III (ankle, illness), DeeJay Dallas (ankle) and Travis Homer (ankle) all missed practice on Thursday for the second straight day this week. At the moment, Godwin Igwebuike is the only healthy RB on Seattle's active roster. We'll have more clarity on the situation after Friday's final injury report is released, but all of Walker, Dallas and Homer will likely need to return to at least a limited practice in order to have a shot at playing in a must-win game in Week 18 against the Los Angeles Rams. The 22-year-old Walker will continue to handle the lion's share of Seattle's backfield duties if he's healthy enough to play. He has two straight 100-yard performances.
		Seattle Seahawks tight end Noah Fant (knee) was limited in Thursday's practice after he was listed as a non-participant on Wednesday. Fant is trending in the right direction to play in a must-win Week 18 divisional clash against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday. The 25-year-old has been playing through his knee injury for a few weeks but hasn't been limited at all on game days. Fant was second on the team in receiving yards (40) in last week's win over the Jets, but fellow tight end Colby Parkinson was targeted a team-high seven times and caught five of them for 36 yards and a touchdown. Given Seattle's banged-up backfield and with receiver Tyler Lockett (finger, shin) hurt, both Fant and Parkinson could see more involvement in the passing attack this weekend. Still, Fant will be a touchdown-dependent option at the position in DFS and season-long leagues.
		Seattle Seahawks running back Travis Homer (ankle) was a non-participant at Thursday's practice. He is now missed back-to-back sessions due to an ankle injury. The 24-year-old sustained the ankle injury in Week 16 against the Chiefs. He is trending in the wrong direction toward playing in Week 18 against the Rams. Backfield teammates Kenneth Walker III (ankle) and DeeJay Dallas (ankle) also did not practice Thursday. Homer used for 74 yards on 19 attempts and caught 16 passes for 157 yards and a touchdown over 10 games in 2022. If Homer does suit up, he is off the fantasy radar for the regular season finale versus the Rams.
		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (shin) is listed as questionable for the Week 18 regular season finale against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday. Lockett returned to practice on Friday after sitting out the previous two days, and he is determined to suit up this weekend in a must-win game, according to head coach Pete Carroll. The 30-year-old wideout missed Week 16 due to a fractured index finger but returned last Sunday to catch both of his targets for 15 yards. He clearly is not 100 percent, but the Seahawks need him as they try to earn the final playoff spot in the NFC. With Seattle's game coming later on Sunday, Lockett becomes even riskier for fantasy managers in the final week of the regular season. If he cannot play, Laquon Treadwell would be the No. 2 behind DK Metcalf.
		Seattle Seahawks running backs Kenneth Walker III (ankle, illness) and DeeJay Dallas (ankle) were both removed from the final injury report on Friday and will play in Week 18 against the Los Angeles Rams. Meanwhile, Travis Homer (ankle) is listed as doubtful to play. A win on Sunday and a Lions win over the Packers on Sunday night would propel the Seahawks to the playoffs as the No. 7 seed in the NFC, so Walker will have a normal workload as the team's top running back in this one. The 22-year-old has had 20-plus touches and over 100 rushing yards in each of the last two games and is a great fantasy option at RB in DFS and single-year leagues in Week 18. Walker enters the week with 936 rushing yards, so there's a good chance he hit the 1,000-yard mark in his first NFL campaign.
		Seattle Seahawks tight end Noah Fant (knee) was removed from the final injury report on Friday and will play in the Week 18 regular season finale on Sunday against the division-rival Los Angeles Rams. Fant will be available for this must-win game, but fantasy managers considering using him as a touchdown-dependent TE2 shouldn't forget about Colby Parkinson's added usage as the team's top-targeted tight end in the Week 17 win over the New York Jets. The 25-year-old Fant will continue to have a role, but he'll probably need to find the end zone in order to return value in DFS and single-year leagues. He enters the weekend as the TE17 in half-point PPR scoring with 46 receptions on 59 targets for 466 yards and four touchdowns in 16 games. Fant caught four passes for 42 yards and a TD in the first meeting against the Rams in Week 13.

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Seattle Seahawks running backs Kenneth Walker III (ankle, illness) and DeeJay Dallas (ankle) didn't practice Wednesday. Walker has been battling an ankle injury since Week 13 and has had practice reps capped. The 22-year-old missed Week 14 against the Carolina Panthers but has played the last three weeks. His ankle injury hasn't limited Walker, as the rookie running back has logged back-to-back 100-yard rushing efforts. The second-round pick is 64 yards from a 1,000-yard campaign and will look to hit that milestone against the Rams in Week 18. Dallas has been dealing with the last few weeks and missed two games in Weeks 14-15 from a high-ankle injury. The 24-year-old has rushed for 53 yards and nine catches for 87 yards over the last games since returning to action in Week 16. Dallas will have two more chances to practice this week ahead of Sunday's game against the Rams.
		Seattle Seahawks tight end Noah Fant (knee) didn't practice on Wednesday. The 25-year-old has been dealing with a knee injury for the last few weeks but has yet to miss a game. He will have two more chances to practice ahead of Sunday's game against the Rams. Fant logged 45 snaps and caught two of three targets for 40 yards in the Week 17 win over the Jets. Colby Parkinson has surpassed Fant on the tight end depth chart, playing 80% of the snaps in Week 17 and reeling in five catches for 36 yards and a touchdown. Fant is considered a borderline TE2 against a Rams defense that ranks 15th in DVOA against opposing tight ends.
		Seattle Seahawks running back Travis Homer (ankle) didn't participate in Wednesday's practice. Homer hasn't practiced and was inactive last Sunday versus the Jets since suffering an ankle injury in Week 16 against the Chiefs. The 24-year-old is trending in the wrong direction toward playing in Week 18 against the Rams. Backfield teammates Kenneth Walker III (ankle) and DeeJay Dallas (ankle) also did not practice Wednesday. Homer will have two more chances to practice this week but is not a viable fantasy option in Week 18 after rushing for 74 yards on 19 attempts and catching 16 passes for 157 yards and a touchdown over 10 games in 2022.
		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (leg) got through a fractured finger while returning to action in Week 17, but now he's day-to-day after suffering a leg contusion in last week's win over the New York Jets. "He's still sore, we're going to hold him out today," head coach Pete Carroll told reporters on Wednesday. "He won't be able to go today. It'll be a day-to-day thing for him as far as practice, but I know he's determined to play." Lockett doesn't need the practice time as a seasoned veteran, so there's a chance that he could be active this Sunday against the Los Angeles Rams, even if he misses practice all week. However, after catching both of his targets for only 15 yards in his return last week, fantasy managers have to be skeptical of how effective he might be if he plays against the Rams this weekend.

		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (leg) was absent from the team's practice on Wednesday but is reportedly determined to suit up for a Week 18 bout with the Los Angeles Rams. Lockett returned to action last week after missing Week 16 with a finger injury, but only played on 32 percent of the team's offensive snaps. It comes as no surprise that Lockett is set on playing on Sunday given that the Seahawks will need to secure a win for a chance to make the playoffs. Fantasy managers should monitor practice reports throughout the week to see how he progresses.

Monday, January 02

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Seattle Seahawks standout linebacker Jordyn Brooks (knee) suffered a torn ACL in the Week 17 win over the New York Jets, according to a source. Obviously, he will miss the rest of the season, which would be a big blow if the team is able to win in Week 18 against the Los Angeles Rams and get some help to make the postseason. Brooks is currently the No. 7 overall linebacker in IDP leagues in overall points after recording 161 tackles (103 solo), three tackles for loss, three QB hits, one sack, five passes defensed, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery in 16 starts in his third year with the Seahawks. With the injury coming so late in the season, the 26-year-old might be fighting an uphill battle to be ready for the start of the 2023 campaign.

Sunday, January 01

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Seattle Seahawks running back Travis Homer (ankle) is inactive for Week 17 against the New York Jets. He had been listed as questionable. DeeJay Dallas will back up Kenneth Walker III but is nothing more than a low-end RB4.
		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (hand) and running back Kenneth Walker III (ankle) are active for Week 17 against the New York Jets. Both players had been listed as questionable. Lockett missed just one week and now returns for the Seahawks' final two games with a surgically-repaired hand. He has a favorable matchup but could be hindered by his injury, dropping him to the low-end WR2 tier. Meanwhile, Walker was expected to play all along. He'll rank as a low-end RB2.
		Seattle Seahawks linebacker Jordyn Brooks (knee) won't return to Sunday's meeting with the Jets. He suffered a knee injury, requiring assistance to the locker room with the cart. The 25-year-old entered Week 17 with a team-high 157 total tackles, with five passes defensed and one sack. Hopefully, he didn't suffer anything too serious, but IDP managers likely won't know more until he has further testing.
		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (leg) is questionable to return to Sunday's meeting with the New York Jets. The wideout dealt with a finger injury heading into this one, so adding another injury isn't ideal. Lockett wasn't very involved before suffering the injury, so he'll finish with two catches for 15 yards if he doesn't return. In the meantime, DK Metcalf, Noah Fant, and Colby Parkinson may be tasked with some additional looks from Geno Smith for the rest of Week 17.

Saturday, December 31

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Seattle Seahawks tight end Noah Fant (knee) was removed from the injury report ahead of Sunday's game against the New York Jets, meaning he will play. He didn't practice on Wednesday but did take part in Thursday's session, albeit in a limited capacity, so he appeared to be trending in this direction all along. The 25-year-old has played fantastic recently, catching a touchdown in three of Seattle's previous four contests. While he isn't a lock to produce, his upside is higher than other tight ends around the National Football League, giving him streaming potential for fantasy managers in Week 17.
		Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said that tight end Will Dissly (knee) may need surgery on his knee after he was placed on Injured Reserve this week. "We're hoping not and thinking not, but we've got to wait and see," Carroll said. We should have more information on what exactly the 26-year-old is dealing with soon, but depending on the surgery, he could be in jeopardy of missing the start of the 2023 season. With Noah Fant in town, Dissly was pretty much in a rotation at the position for Seattle before his season-ending injury. He wasn't really on the fantasy radar outside of being a sleeper TE2 streamer in deeper leagues, as he finished with 34 catches on 38 targets for 349 yards and three touchdowns in 15 games played.
		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Marquise Goodwin (shoulder, wrist) has been placed on the injured reserve. He was unable to practice this week and continues to deal with lingering injuries. That being said, the Seahawks have decided to end his season early and let Goodwin get fully healthy. He finished the season with 27 receptions, 387 yards, and four touchdowns with Seattle. His one-year deal is over at the end of the season, but Goodwin shouldn't have an issue finding another team this offseason. The trio of Tyler Lockett, DK Metcalf, and Laquon Treadwell will be the primary wideouts for Week 17.

Friday, December 30

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (hand) returned to practice on Thursday. He practiced in a limited capacity, which was an improvement considering he was unable to practice at all on Wednesday. The 30-year-old missed last week's game but has otherwise been an impact player this season, catching 78 passes for 964 yards and eight touchdowns. He will rank as a mid-to-low WR2 upon his return to action.
		Seattle Seahawks running backs Kenneth Walker III (ankle) and DeeJay Dallas (ankle) were both limited participants during Thursday's practice. Walker missed just one game back in Week 14, and while the rookie has remained on the injury report since then, he has looked good in game action. Just last Sunday, he rushed the ball 26 times for 107 yards versus Kansas City. Dallas, on the other hand, played a key role in the passing game last week, hauling in all six of his targets for 32 yards through the air. He has some added intrigue in PPR formats but still ranks as a low-end RB4 for the time being.
		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Marquise Goodwin (shoulder, wrist) and running back Travis Homer (ankle) missed a second consecutive practice on Thursday. At this rate, it looks like both players will face an uphill battle to play against the Jets in Week 17. Goodwin had an opportunity for extra snaps last week with Tyler Lockett (hand) sidelined, but he exited the game with an injury of his own after totaling four targets and zero catches. Meanwhile, Homer played just one snap last week. Even if he's active on Sunday, he is third on the depth chart and has no fantasy relevance.
		Seattle Seahawks tight end Noah Fant (knee) was a limited participant during Thursday's practice. This was an improvement after he missed practice on Wednesday. The 25-year-old has looked solid lately, catching 17 passes for 250 yards and three touchdowns over the course of his last seven games. He's in line for an even larger role moving forward after fellow tight end Will Dissly (knee) was placed on injured reserve. Assuming Fant plays against the Jets in Week 17, consider him a high-end TE2.
		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (finger) is listed as questionable to face the New York Jets in Week 17, but the expectation is that he will be able to play on Sunday, according to a source. Lockett has reportedly looked great this week after having surgery for a broken left index finger last week. The 30-year-old should be available for the Seahawks as they try to land a wild-card spot in the NFC playoffs the last two weeks of the regular season. And with Marquise Goodwin (shoulder, wrist) doubtful to play, Lockett shouldn't see any playing-time restrictions after missing just one game. Lockett is the WR11 so far this year in half-point PPR leagues, but he'll also be facing a Jets D that is allowing the second-fewest fantasy points per game to receivers in 2022. He'll be a risk/reward WR2 for fantasy managers in his expected return.
		Seattle Seahawks rookie running back Kenneth Walker III (ankle) is listed as questionable to play in Week 17 versus the New York Jets, but head coach Pete Carroll said that Walker should be good to go on Sunday. Travis Homer (ankle) is also questionable for Seattle's backfield, but with DeeJay Dallas taking on the No. 2 role, Homer has once again become irrelevant in fantasy. Unless Walker suffers a setback between now and Sunday, he should be Seattle's unquestioned lead back this weekend. In last week's loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, the 22-year-old saw 28 touches for 105 scrimmage yards. He's been the RB21 on the year in half-point PPR setups and should be considered a high-end RB2 on volume alone against the Jets.
		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Marquise Goodwin (shoulder, wrist) has been downgraded from questionable to doubtful for the Week 17 game against the New York Jets on Sunday. Goodwin was unable to practice all week after getting hurt in last week's loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. The good news for Seattle is Tyler Lockett (finger) is expected to return after a one-game absence due to a fractured index finger. If Lockett doesn't actually play or is limited at all this weekend, Laquon Treadwell would serve as the No. 2 behind DK Metcalf. The matchup won't be an easy one for Seahawks receivers, as the Jets defense has allowed the second-fewest fantasy points per game to wideouts. Goodwin may be fighting an uphill battle to be ready for the regular season finale in Week 18.

Thursday, December 29

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said that wide receiver Tyler Lockett (finger) "did everything" in the team's walkthrough practice on Wednesday and "looked great." Carroll said "we'll see" if Lockett can play in Week 17 against the New York Jets, but reiterated that his walkthrough "was excellent." Lockett was officially listed as a full practice participant after having surgery to fix a fractured finger he sustained in Week 15. The 30-year-old sat out of last week's loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, but he has a chance to play this Sunday, which would be great news for fantasy managers that have advanced to their championship matchup. The matchup against the Jets defense won't be easy, but Lockett enters Week 17 as the WR11 in half-point PPR setups.
		Seattle Seahawks rookie running back Kenneth Walker III (ankle) did not take part in practice on Wednesday, while DeeJay Dallas (ankle) was listed as a limited participant. Running back Travis Homer (ankle) was also listed as a DNP. As long as Walker returns to practice on Thursday, he should be expected to once again lead Seattle's backfield in Week 17 in a matchup with the New York Jets. The 22-year-old RB saw 28 touches in last week's loss to the Kansas City Chiefs and produced 105 scrimmage yards in the process. Dallas and Homer combined for just eight targets, so Walker remains Seattle's clear lead back. He should be considered an RB2 this weekend as the overall RB21 in half-point PPR scoring through 16 weeks of the season.
		Seattle Seahawks tight end Noah Fant (knee) and wide receiver Marquise Goodwin (shoulder, wrist) were both absent from practice on Wednesday. Fant was questionable for Week 16 against the Kansas City Chiefs but ended up playing 55 percent of the snaps while catching two of three targets for 12 yards and a touchdown. He has scored in back-to-back games and in three of the last four, but he has only 11 receptions for 86 yards in that span, including a zero-reception game in Week 14. The 25-year-old should see more playing time with Will Dissly (knee) on IR, but he'll still be a touchdown-dependent TE2 streamer. Goodwin saw fewer snaps than Laquon Treadwell last Saturday with Tyler Lockett (finger) out, and he failed to catch any of his four targets. With Lockett looking to have a good shot at returning this Sunday against the New York Jets, Goodwin will go back to being off the fantasy radar.
		Seattle Seahawks running back Travis Homer (ankle) didn't practice Wednesday. The 24-year-old initially injured his ankle in the Week 16 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. He logged just five snaps and didn't record a stat before exiting. Rookie Kenneth Walker III (ankle) was absent from Wednesday's practice, while DeeJay Dallas (ankle) was listed as a limited participant. Homer will have two more chances to log a full practice to have a shot of suiting up against the Jets. The 24-year-old has 74 yards on 19 attempts while catching 16 passes for 157 yards and a touchdown over 10 games. Homer is behind Walker and Dallas on the running back depth chart. Even if Homer is active, the former sixth-round pick is not on the fantasy radar in Week 17.
		Updating a previous report, Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (finger) was officially listed as a non-participant at Wednesday's practice despite the fact that head coach Pete Carroll said that Lockett "did everything" during the team's walkthrough practice and "looked great." The 30-year-old had surgery to fix a fractured left hand and miss the Week 16 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, but there is a chance he'll return to face the New York Jets this Sunday. Fantasy managers will want to keep a close eye on news surrounding Lockett as Sunday approaches, and there's a chance he could suit up without practicing at all this week. He has been a must-start fantasy wideout all year long, but he could be in for a disappointing performance if he returns against a strong Jets defense.

Wednesday, December 28

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		The Seattle Seahawks placed tight end Will Dissly (knee) on Injured Reserve on Tuesday and promoted cornerback Xavier Crawford from the practice squad to the active roster in a corresponding move. Dissly will miss the final two regular season games after suffering what head coach Pete Carroll described as a knee contusion in the Week 16 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. Seattle will have to make the playoffs and advance to the NFC Championship for Dissly to have a shot at returning this year. The 26-year-old mostly worked behind Noah Fant as the pass-catching tight end for the Seahawks this year, and he'll finish the regular season with just 34 catches for 349 yards and three touchdowns in 38 targets over 15 games. Colby Parkinson should see some more playing time alongside Fant the rest of the way.

Saturday, December 24

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		The Seattle Seahawks have elevated running backs Godwin Igwebuike and Wayne Gallman to their active roster ahead of a Week 16 bout with the Kansas City Chiefs. Igwebuike has been utilized on special teams as a kick returner over the past two weeks and will likely be used in the same role on Saturday. Gallman, on the other hand, could have an opportunity to see some offensive snaps with Kenneth Walker III (ankle, back) and DeeJay Dallas (ankle) both questionable to suit up. Although it has been reported that both backs are on track to play, this transaction makes the situation a bit more unclear. Fantasy managers should keep an eye out for any updates regarding the availability of Walker and Dallas, but neither Igwebuike nor Gallman should impact any lineup decisions.
		Seattle Seahawks running backs Kenneth Walker III (ankle, back) and DeeJay Dallas (ankle) are active for Saturday's game against the Kansas City Chiefs. Walker didn't practice all week but will suit up for Week 16. The 22-year-old rushed 12 times for 47 yards and brought in four of five targets for 32 yards in the Week 15 loss to the 49ers. Walker has RB2 value and will look to bounce back against Kansas City. Dallas will serve as Walker's backup and not on the fantasy radar in Week 16.
		Seattle Seahawks tight end Noah Fant (knee) and wide receiver Marquise Goodwin (wrist, ankle) are active and will play against the Kansas City Chiefs on Saturday. No shock here, as Fant and Goodwin were expected to play in Week 16. Fant has caught 42 passes for 414 yards and three touchdowns over 14 games in 2022. The 25-year-old is in a timeshare with Will Dissly and remains a streamer in deep-league formats. Goodwin should see an uptick in targets with Tyler Lockett (finger) ruled out and is on the flex radar against the Chiefs in Week 16.
		Seattle Seahawks running back Travis Homer (ankle) is questionable to return against Kansas City. Kenneth Walker III (ankle, back) and DeeJay Dallas (ankle) are both in the lineup, so Homer likely wasn't featured in many fantasy lineups anyway.
		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Marquise Goodwin (wrist) is questionable to return to Saturday's clash with the Chiefs. The 32-year-old re-injured the left wrist that forced him to carry a questionable tag heading into this one. Despite Tyler Lockett's (finger) absence, Goodwin didn't get anything going for fantasy managers before succumbing to the injury, failing to catch his only target. If he doesn't make it back out there for the rest of Week 16, Will Dissly, Colby Parkinson, and Laquon Treadwell should see some extra attention from Geno Smith. Of course, DK Metcalf would remain the preferred option on the receiving end.

		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Marquise Goodwin (wrist, ankle) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Kansas Chiefs. The 32-year-old was limited at practice this week with wrist and ankle injuries. Fantasy managers will know the veteran's wideout official status an hour and a half before the 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff. Tyler Lockett (finger) has been ruled out for Sunday's game. If active, Goodwin will see an uptick in targets with Lockett out and is on the flex radar in a potential shootout (49.5 over/under) against the Chiefs in Week 16.
		Seattle Seahawks tight end Noah Fant (knee) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Kanas City Chiefs. The former Denver Bronco didn't practice this week due to a knee issue and his status for the Christmas Eve game is uncertain. He has caught 42 passes for 414 yards and three touchdowns over 14 games in 2022. Fantasy managers will know the 25-year-old's official status an hour and a half before the 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff. Will Dissly would see an uptick in targets if Fant cannot suit up against the Chiefs in Week 16.
		Seattle Seahawks tight end Noah Fant (knee) and wide receiver Marquise Goodwin (ankle, wrist), who are both listed as questionable for Week 16, are expected to play on Saturday against the Kansas City Chiefs, according to head coach Pete Carroll. With Tyler Lockett (finger) out, Goodwin will elevate to the No. 2 receiver behind DK Metcalf this weekend, giving him some deep-league flex appeal in a game in which Seattle will surely be throwing often. The 32-year-old suffered a lateral ankle sprain in practice this week but should be good to go. Fant posted a donut for fantasy managers two weeks ago but rebounded with a touchdown in Week 15. He'll continue to share snaps with Will Dissly and Colby Parkinson, making him a touchdown-dependent TE2 streamer in fantasy.

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III (ankle) missed his second straight day of practice this week on Wednesday, putting his availability for Week 16 against the Kansas City Chiefs on Saturday in question. Walker will need to get back on the practice field on Thursday to have a shot at playing this weekend. The 22-year-old rookie missed Week 14 before returning to carry the ball 12 times for 47 yards in last week's loss to the San Francisco 49ers. He also had four catches for 32 yards. If Walker is active, he'll be in play as an RB2 for fantasy managers, although he could be faced with poor game script against the Chiefs. Walker ranks second in rushing yards among rookies this year, trailing only Dameon Pierce. If he is unable to play, Travis Homer would likely serve as Seattle's lead back.
		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (hand) and tight end Noah Fant (knee) both missed practice for the second straight day this week on Wednesday. Lockett had surgery to fix a broken index finger on Monday and will not play this Saturday against the Kansas City Chiefs, but there's a chance he could return in Week 17 to face the New York Jets, so fantasy managers shouldn't outright drop him in their leagues. Marquise Goodwin will serve as the No. 2 wideout on Christmas Eve and will have some flex appeal in what could turn into a shootout. Fant could miss the Week 16 contest if he doesn't return to practice on Thursday. The 25-year-old put up a donut in Week 14 before catching five of six targets for 32 yards and his third touchdown of the year last Sunday. If he starts, he'll be a TE2 streamer in a potential high-scoring affair. If he can't get cleared, Will Dissly and Colby Parkinson would split time at the tight end position.
		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Marquise Goodwin (ankle, wrist) was listed as a limited participant in Wednesday's practice. Goodwin was listed as a full participant on Tuesday, but it's very possible the Seahawks were just giving him a bit of a rest on Wednesday heading into a Week 16 game versus the Kansas City Chiefs. Tyler Lockett (finger) will not play on Christmas Eve, which will open up more opportunities for Goodwin as the team's No. 2 receiver behind DK Metcalf. The recently signed Laquon Treadwell could serve as the team's No. 3 with Lockett out. In a game in which Seattle could be forced to throw often, Goodwin will have some real WR4/flex upside in deeper leagues. He had 95 yards and a touchdown two weeks ago and has scored a career-high-tying four times in 12 games this year.
		Seattle Seahawks running back DeeJay Dallas (ankle) was a limited participant on Wednesday. The 24-year-old sat out in practice last week and hasn't played in a game since 13 due to a "high-ankle issue." Dallas is trending in the right direction toward suiting up against the Chiefs. He will look to log an entire session on Thursday. Backfield teammate Kenneth Walker III (ankle) has yet to practice this week, leaving Travis Homer as Seattle's only healthy running back. Fantasy managers need to keep an eye on Thursday's injury report; Dallas could be on the flex radar if Walker is ruled out for Week 16.
		The Seattle Seahawks waived running back Tony Jones Jr. on Wednesday. The Seahawks signed defensive tackle Daviyon Nixon in a corresponding move. Jones was claimed off waivers from the Saints by the Seahawks in October. The 25-year-old rushed for 16 yards on eight attempts across four games for the Seahawks in 2022. The Seahawks waived Jones despite DeeJay Dallas (ankle) and Kenneth Walker III (ankle) dealing with injuries, while Travis Homer is currently Seattle's only healthy running back. Jones will look to latch onto another team in need of running back depth.
		Seattle Seahawks running backs Kenneth Walker III (ankle) and DeeJay Dallas (ankle) are expected to suit up for the Week 16 matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs despite being listed as questionable on the final injury report. It sounds like head coach Pete Carroll plans on having both backs available this weekend. The organization waived backup Tony Jones Jr. which shows they have faith in Walker and Dallas being healthy. Travis Homer has struggled as the No. 2 back, so Dallas should immediately return to the backup role. Neither player should be viewed as a reliable streaming choice this weekend. Walker will have RB2 value, assuming he's healthy enough to play this weekend.

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Seattle Seahawks rookie running back Kenneth Walker III (ankle) did not take part in Tuesday's practice, according to head coach Pete Carroll. Walker missed Week 14 with his ankle injury but was able to return in last Thursday night's loss to the San Francisco 49ers, when he contributed 12 carries for 47 yards and caught four of his five targets for 32 yards on 75 percent of the offensive snaps. There's a good chance the Seahawks are taking it easy on the 22-year-old back, but fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status the rest of the week. DeeJay Dallas (ankle) has missed the last two games, so if Walker is out or limited in Week 16 against the Kansas City Chiefs, Travis Homer would likely lead this backfield. Walker is second among rookie RBs with 678 rushing yards and nine rushing scores and is currently the RB21 in half-point PPR formats.
		Seattle Seahawks tight end Noah Fant (knee) missed practice on Tuesday with a knee injury. It's the first time he's popped up on the injury report with this issue, so it's hard to know the severity. The Seahawks use multiple tight ends throughout each game, but the 25-year-old has scored in two of the past three weeks. Additionally, the team will be without wide receiver Tyler Lockett (finger) on Saturday, creating more opportunity for the other pass-catchers in the offense. If he cannot suit up, Will Dissly would be the immediate beneficiary, along with the remaining wide receivers, DK Metcalf and Marquise Goodwin, and the running backs, Kenneth Walker III (ankle) and Travis Homer.

		The Seattle Seahawks have signed wide receiver Laquon Treadwell to their 53-man roster. Several weeks ago, the 27-year-old was added to their practice squad but has yet to suit up for a game. The team recently lost Tyler Lockett (finger), who is expected to have surgery and miss at least this week's game, if not longer. DK Metcalf remains their No. 1 option, with Marquise Goodwin next in the pecking order, but after that, the depth chart is wide open, creating an opportunity for the former first-round pick to make an impact. Treadwell is an intriguing addition in fantasy football as part of a pass-heavy offense that needs a third receiver.

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Seattle Seahawks running back DeeJay Dallas (ankle) is inactive for the Week 15 matchup against the San Francisco 49ers. This doesn't come as a shock considering Dallas sat out of practice all week. The good new is, Kenneth Walker II (ankle) is back, so he'll be the lead back for Thursday's contest. Behind him, Travis Homer will be the primary backup with Tony Jones Jr. being a healthy scratch. It's difficult to imagine Homer doing enough to warrant starting in fantasy formats this week even with Dallas out.
		Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said that wide receiver Tyler Lockett (finger) broke his index finger in the Thursday night loss to the San Francisco 49ers. It's now unclear if Lockett will be able to play again this season with three games remaining. Lockett caught seven of his nine targets for a team-high 68 receiving yards in Thursday night's loss before leaving the game late. It looks like fantasy managers won't have the 30-year-old pass-catcher for the rest of the fantasy playoffs. It's a tough blow for those fighting for a fantasy title, as Lockett entered Week 15 as the WR8 in half-point PPR scoring. If Lockett is indeed out the rest of the way, Marquise Goodwin could have some nice flex upside in deeper leagues in the final three games.
		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (finger) is expected to have surgery to fix and stabilize his fractured index finger, according to a source. It's possible that Lockett only misses one game and is back for the final two games of the regular season, but a firm timetable will be available after he has surgery. Lockett officially suffered a spiral crack in his first metacarpal when he went to make a catch low on an incompletion during the final drive of the game on Thursday. As a top-10 fantasy wideout this year, losing Lockett is a big blow for the Seahawks and fantasy managers that are still in contention for a title in 2022. Because he could be back for the fantasy championship in most leagues in Week 17, hold onto Lockett for now in single-year leagues. Marquise Goodwin should benefit the most with added targets for however long Lockett is out.

		Seattle Seahawks running back DeeJay Dallas (ankle) missed practice all week but is listed as questionable for the Thursday night game against the San Francisco 49ers. The fact that Dallas wasn't able to practice at all this week after missing the Week 14 loss to the Carolina Panthers puts him on the wrong side of questionable to kick things off in Week 15. Even if the 24-year-old were to play, he'd be backing up impressive rookie Kenneth Walker III (ankle), who was removed from the final injury report this week after also missing last week's contest. Although he could be somewhat limited in his return against San Francisco, Walker should lead Seattle's backfield, with Travis Homer and Tony Jones Jr. backing him up if Dallas misses his second straight game.

		Seattle Seahawks rookie running back Kenneth Walker III (ankle) returned to a full practice on Tuesday, while DeeJay Dallas (ankle) missed his second straight practice of the week. Walker was listed as a limited participant on Monday's estimated report after he sat out of the Week 14 loss to the Carolina Panthers. It's looking like the 22-year-old has a real shot to return as Seattle's lead back this Thursday night against the San Francisco 49ers. However, on the short week and against a tough opponent in the Niners, Walker will be a bit more volatile as a fantasy starter in Week 15. With Dallas trending towards missing his second straight game, Travis Homer would be in line to serve as Walker's backup this week.

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Seattle Seahawks rookie running back Kenneth Walker III (ankle) was listed as a limited practice participant on Monday's estimated report, while DeeJay Dallas (ankle) drew a DNP. Walker is dealing with a right calf strain and was held out of the Week 14 loss to the Carolina Panthers. But his limited practice listing should give him a chance to suit up on Thursday night against the San Francisco 49ers. Dallas also missed Sunday's game and is off to a bad start on a short week. If Walker is able to return, he should be Seattle's lead back, although he could also be on a limited snap count on a short week. With Walker and Dallas sidelined in Week 14, Travis Homer led the backfield with nine carries for just 26 yards, while Tony Jones Jr. had just two touches for 10 yards.

Sunday, December 11

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Seattle Seahawks running back DeeJay Dallas (ankle) is considered a longshot to play against the Carolina Panthers on Sunday, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. The running back injured himself while rushing 10 times for 37 yards in Week 13. Heading into the clash with Carolina, Dallas and backfield-mate Kenneth Walker III (ankle) are both questionable, though Seattle has more optimism about the latter at this point. Of course, there's a possibility that neither back plays, in which case Travis Homer would lead the backfield. We can expect confirmation on their statuses just prior to 2 p.m. EST on Sunday.
		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (hip) is expected to be active for Week 14 against the Carolina Panthers, according to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com. Metcalf had been listed as questionable, and while the Seahawks will "watch his workload closely," the expectation is that he is healthy enough to suit up. Metcalf's talent on the field trumps any injury concerns, meaning he should be fired up as a low-end WR1 on Sunday.
		Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III (ankle) is not expected to play against the Carolina Panthers in Week 14, according to ESPN.com's Jeremy Fowler. Walker had been listed as questionable, and while the Seahawks won't make an official decision on the rookie's status until 11:30 a.m. EST on Sunday, it looks like he'll be inactive barring a drastic development. The same goes for DeeJay Dallas (ankle), meaning Travis Homer projects as the Seahawks' lead back this week. He ranks as a high-end RB3 with upside in what should be a favorable matchup.
		Seattle Seahawks running backs Kenneth Walker III (ankle) and DeeJay Dallas (ankle) are inactive for Week 14 versus the Carolina Panthers. Both players had been listed as questionable. Walker has impressed in his rookie campaign, totaling 649 rushing yards, 116 receiving yards, and nine touchdowns over 11 games. Meanwhile, Dallas has mainly filled a depth role but did rush 10 times for 37 yards while managing his ankle injury last week. Now that the Seahawks are without their top two backs, they'll enter this week with Tony Jones Jr., Travis Homer, and Godwin Igwebuike rounding out their backfield. Jones is expected to draw the start, but Homer has ranked higher on the depth chart all season and offers more upside in the passing game. Consider them both mid-to-low RB3 options that can be solid FLEX plays in Week 14.
		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (hip) and tight end Will Dissly (calf) are active for Week 14 against the Carolina Panthers. Both players had been listed as questionable. The Seahawks are expected to monitor Metcalf's health and workload, but his talent outweighs any injury concerns. Therefore, he should continue to be started in all leagues this week. Meanwhile, Dissly, who started off the season hot, has now gone eight games without a touchdown and should be left on waivers in most formats.

Saturday, December 10

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Seattle Seahawks tight end Will Dissly (calf) is "ready to go" for the Week 14 matchup against the Carolina Panthers, according to head coach Pete Carroll. The 26-year-old missed practice on Wednesday and logged limited sessions on Thursday and Friday because of a calf injury. Dissly began the season by catching a touchdown in three of his first four games. However, he has done little since. Nevertheless, his official status remains questionable for Sunday's game, although it appears he'll play given the recent comment from Carroll. That being said, Dissly should be viewed as a streaming option for needy fantasy managers, but nothing more.
		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Marquise Goodwin (hand) was removed from the injury report and is available in Week 14 versus the Carolina Panthers. The veteran totaled three touchdowns between Weeks 7 and 10. However, he's done little ever since. Considering DK Metcalf (hip) is expected to play on Sunday, Goodwin shouldn't offer much upside for fantasy managers in any format.

Friday, December 09

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Seattle Seahawks running backs Kenneth Walker III (ankle) and DeeJay Dallas (ankle) both missed practice for the second straight day this week on Thursday. Walker jammed his ankle in the Week 13 win over the Los Angeles Rams, and both he and Dallas are highly questionable to play this Sunday against the Carolina Panthers. Meanwhile, Travis Homer (knee) returned to a full practice on Thursday, so if both Walker and Dallas are inactive this weekend, Homer could see the lion's share of the backfield work, making him worth a waiver-wire pickup late in the week. The 22-year-old Walker has been Seattle's top back in 2022 when healthy, but he could be on more of a snap count if he's able to return to practice and play on Sunday.
		Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith (shoulder) and wide receiver DK Metcalf (hip) were both added to the Week 14 injury report on Thursday and were listed as limited practice participants. Unless either player gets a downgrade in Friday's practice, they should be able to play this Sunday against the Carolina Panthers. Smith is having a career year in his ninth NFL season and he has multiple passing touchdowns in each of the last six games, including three in last week's win over the Los Angeles Rams. He's become a low-end QB1 in 2022. With Smith looking like a new man this season, Metcalf has benefitted as is a low-end, must-start WR1 if he's active. Metcalf has 67 receptions on 100 targets for 798 yards and five touchdowns in 12 games. He may not reach double-digit TDs like he has the last two years, but everything else has been strong.
		Seattle Seahawks running back Travis Homer (knee) and wide receiver Marquise Goodwin (hand) both put in full practices on Thursday. Homer was limited on Wednesday, while Goodwin didn't practice at all. Rookie Kenneth Walker III (ankle) and DeeJay Dallas (ankle) have yet to practice this week, so if one or both are inactive in Week 14 against the Carolina Panthers, Homer would see a significant role increase in the backfield. He's worth a speculative waiver-wire pickup if you roster Walker or need help at the RB position this week. The 24-year-old was inactive in Week 13 due to an illness. Goodwin now has a shot to suit up on Sunday versus Carolina, but he's not a realistic starting fantasy option behind target hogs DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett.
		Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said that running backs Kenneth Walker III (ankle) and DeeJay Dallas (ankle) will both be game-time decisions in Week 14 against the Carolina Panthers on Sunday. They are both listed as questionable on the final injury report. The fact that neither Walker nor Dallas practiced at all this week is an ominous sign for their availability this weekend, and even if they are active, they could have their snaps limited. Travis Homer is off the injury report and could be Seattle's lead back against Carolina, making him a potential plug-and-play RB3/flex for fantasy managers. Tony Jones Jr. is the only other healthy back on Seattle's active roster. Those that have been using Walker on a weekly basis as an RB2 need to have backup options ready.
		Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said that running back Travis Homer (knee) had a good week of practice and is good to go in Week 14 against the Carolina Panthers on Sunday. Homer was removed from the final injury report and will be active, and he could be the team's lead back with both rookie Kenneth Walker III (ankle) and DeeJay Dallas (ankle) to be game-time decisions on Sunday. Neither Walker nor Dallas were able to practice all week. If both Walker and Dallas are unable to get cleared for Sunday's tilt, Homer could have RB2 upside if he sees the lion's share of the backfield touches over Tony Jones Jr. or anyone else the Seahawks call up from the practice squad.
		Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith (shoulder) and wide receiver DK Metcalf (hip) are both good to go for the Week 14 game against the Carolina Panthers on Sunday, according to head coach Pete Carroll. Smith was removed from the injury report on Friday, while Metcalf got a questionable tag. Smith's right shoulder is worth watching moving forward, but the 32-year-old will play and will have his top two weapons -- Metcalf and Tyler Lockett -- available. Treat him as a low-end QB1 in fantasy. Metcalf was held out of Friday's practice for rest purposes. The 24-year-old's hip injury is worth keeping an eye on, but he'll attempt to play through it Sunday. Metcalf has drawn at least eight targets in five straight games and is a must-start in fantasy.

Thursday, December 08

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Seattle Seahawks running back Travis Homer (knee, illness) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice. He missed last Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Rams due to an illness. Backfield teammates Kenneth Walker III (ankle) and DeeJay Dallas (ankle) did not practice Wednesday. Homer could have an expanded role against the Panthers if Walker and Dallas miss Sunday's game. The 24-year-old has nine carries for 43 yards and caught 10 passes for 124 yards and a touchdown over seven games in 2022. Fantasy managers should continue monitoring Seattle's backfield status throughout the week. Homer will be on the fantasy radar if Walker and Dallas are ruled out ahead of Week 14.
		Seattle Seahawks tight end Will Dissly (calf) was a non-participant at Wednesday's practice. He will have two more chances to log a full practice ahead of Sunday's game against the Carolina Panthers. The 26-year-old is averaging 40 snaps per game (64% of the snap percentage) and has posted a modest line of 30 catches for 297 yards and three touchdowns over 12 games in 2022. Noah Fant would see an increased role if Dissly is ruled out. Fant can be used as a streamer in deep-league formats against a Panthers defense that ranks 12th in DVOA versus opposing tight ends.
		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Marquise Goodwin (hand) didn't practice Wednesday. He has been dealing with a hand injury for weeks but has managed to play through it. Goodwin will have two more chances to practice ahead of Sunday's game against the Carolina Panthers. The 32-year-old has posted modest totals as Seattle's WR3. Goodwin has caught 20 passes for 282 yards and three touchdowns over 10 games in 2022. The veteran wideout hasn't eclipsed 50 receiving yards since Week 7, making Goodwin a boom-or-bust flex against the Panthers in Week 14

		Seattle Seahawks running backs Kenneth Walker III (ankle) and DeeJay Dallas (ankle) will not practice on Wednesday, according to head coach Pete Carroll. Their statuses are still to be determined for Week 14 against the Carolina Panthers. Travis Homer (knee), who didn't play in Week 13, was in the walk-through and will practice on Wednesday. Dallas was a popular waiver-wire pickup this week because of Walker's injury, but he's also in danger of missing this weekend's game. Tony Jones Jr. is the team's only healthy RB on the active roster, which is why Seattle signed Wayne Gallman on Tuesday. Walker jammed his right ankle in the Week 13 win over the Rams. It's anyone's guess as to what this backfield will look like come Sunday, but if both Walker and Dallas are out, Homer would have an opportunity for lead-back duties.

Tuesday, December 06

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		The Seattle Seahawks signed veteran running back Wayne Gallman to their practice squad on Tuesday with rookie Kenneth Walker III (ankle) dealing with an ankle injury, according to a source. Gallman hasn't seen action in an NFL game this year despite being on the Kansas City Chiefs' practice squad earlier this season. Seattle also has Travis Homer, DeeJay Dallas and Tony Jones Jr. on the RB depth chart, but Homer (didn't play in Week 13) and Dallas are also banged up with injuries, so the Seahawks needed more depth at the position heading into their Week 14 clash against the Carolina Panthers. The 28-year-old Gallman could be active for the first time this weekend, depending on the health of the other RBs, but he won't be a realistic fantasy option.

		Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III (ankle) didn't return to the Week 13 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams because of an ankle injury. Fortunately, head coach Pete Carroll seemingly provided a reassuring update following the game, indicating the rookie didn't suffer a sprain, instead, he "jammed" it. It's likely Walker, who had nine touchdowns heading into Sunday's meeting, will undergo further testing. However, it appears there's a chance he could be on the field versus the Panthers in Week 14. If he isn't, Travis Homer (knee, illness), who didn't play, may be the lead option out of the backfield. If he can't go either, DeeJay Dallas should handle most of the carries.
		Seattle Seahawks rookie running back Kenneth Walker III reportedly has a strain on his foot/inside his ankle, but the injury is not viewed as serious or season-ending. Head coach Pete Carroll said Walker could potentially play in Week 14 against the Carolina Panthers, but it's too early to know. Walker has become a must-start if active, but DeeJay Dallas and Travis Homer (out in Week 13 with an illness) will become flex candidates if Walker can't play. Seattle surely feels confident in their chances to beat the lowly Panthers without Walker, so there's a chance they rest him as a precaution with the playoffs looming.

		Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III (ankle) is questionable to return on Sunday versus the L.A. Rams. The rookie only logged three carries for 36 yards before suffering an ankle injury. With Travis Homer (illness, knee) out for Week 13, DeeJay Dallas should handle most of the work out of the backfield if Walker can't make it back. Former Saints running back Tony Jones Jr. may also get a few touches.
		Seattle Seahawks running back DeeJay Dallas (undisclosed) is questionable to return on Sunday against the Rams. Dallas had been filling in for Kenneth Walker III (ankle), who suffered an ankle injury. However, he only lasted just five carries before being observed limping to the locker room. With Travis Homer (knee, illness) ruled out heading into this contest, Tony Jones Jr. may be the only healthy back if Dallas or Walker can't return for the rest of Week 13.
		Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III (ankle) won't return to Sunday's matchup against the Rams. The rookie only logged three carries for 36 yards before his day came to an abrupt end because of an ankle injury. Hopefully, he'll be good to go in Week 14 versus the Panthers. However, if Walker can't suit up, DeeJay Dallas (ankle), who briefly exited this one, or Travis Homer (knee, illness), who didn't play, may lead the backfield.
		Seattle Seahawks running back DeeJay Dallas (ankle) returned to Sunday's matchup against the Rams. It's certainly good news, especially since Travis Homer (knee, illness) didn't play and Kenneth Walker III (ankle) was ruled out. That said, Dallas was listed as doubtful to make it back after suffering the injury, so it's possible Tony Jones Jr., who would have been the only healthy running back, could handle most of the work for the rest of Week 13.

		Seattle Seahawks running back Travis Homer (illness, knee) was listed as a limited participant in Friday's practice. Homer did not partake in practice on Wednesday or Thursday but now is officially questionable for the team's Week 13 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. The 24-year-old has occasionally been utilized as a pass-catching option this season and posted 45 receiving yards and a touchdown last week. Although no Seattle back outside of Kenneth Walker III should be trusted for fantasy purposes, additional opportunities would be available for DeeJay Dallas if Homer were to be declared out.
		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Marquise Goodwin (illness) wasn't given an injury designation on Friday and will play in Week 13 against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday. Goodwin was added to the injury report on Thursday, but he'll be good to go this weekend. The 32-year-old pass-catcher had a two-touchdown game in Week 7 and also scored a touchdown in Week 10 in the loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but outside of those games he's done very little for fantasy managers. He caught all three of his targets for 48 yards in Week 12 and has 19 receptions for 265 yards and three TDs on 25 targets in nine games for Seattle in 2022. With both DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett healthy, Goodwin has no business being in starting fantasy lineups in Week 13.
		Seattle Seahawks running back Travis Homer (illness, knee) has been ruled out for the Week 13 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. The 24-year-old was limited on Friday's practice, so there was some concern that he'd sit out. It appears that the Seahawks are going to take the cautious approach and rest Homer. DeeJay Dallas should see a higher workload, but probably isn't even worth trusting in deep leagues. Kenneth Walker III is the only running back on this roster worth starting this week.

		Seattle Seahawks running back Travis Homer (illness, knee) did not participate in Thursday's practice. He will have one more chance to practice for a shot of suiting up against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday. The Seahawks had eight players listed on the injury report with an illness. Homer continues to split time with DeeJay Dallas as Kenneth Walker III's backup. The 24-year-old has caught 10 passes for 124 yards and a touchdown over seven games in 2022. Homer is mainly an option in deep-league PPR formats if he is active for Week 13.

		Seattle Seahawks running back Travis Homer (illness) didn't practice Wednesday. The 24-year-old will have two more days to practice to have a shot of suiting up against the Los Angeles Rams in Week 13. He continues to split time with DeeJay Dallas as Kenneth Walker III's backup. Homer has a small role in Seattle's passing game, catching 10 passes for 124 yards and a touchdown over seven games in 2022. The former sixth-round pick is a dart throw at best against the Rams in deep-league PPR formats for Week 13.

Wednesday, November 30

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Los Angeles Rams defensive tackle Aaron Donald (ankle) has been ruled out for Week 13 against the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday. Donald is dealing with a high-ankle sprain and could miss more time beyond this weekend, but the good news is that he won't need surgery and is considered week-to-week. But with the Rams well out of playoff contention, there's a chance the 31-year-old won't play again in 2022. Fantasy managers in IDP leagues need to have other options at defensive line ready for this weekend and beyond. The Rams defense/special teams will take a big hit without Donald in the fold against a potent Seahawks defense. Donald, an eight-time Pro Bowler, is in danger of failing to reach double-digit sacks in 2022 for the first time since 2016. He has just five through 11 games.

		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Dee Eskridge (hand) is expected to land on the injured reserve after suffering a broken right hand, according to head coach Pete Carroll. Eskridge had suited up for every game so far this season but sustained the injury during a kickoff return in a Week 10 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Carroll expressed optimism that the second-year wideout will be able to return later this season. Eskridge, who has mainly been utilized on special teams, has not been impactful for fantasy in 2022, but teammates Penny Hart and Dareke Young could see some additional snaps in his absence.

		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Marquise Goodwin (groin) is officially active for Sunday's game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Munich, Germany. The veteran wideout had been listed as questionable, but there was plenty of optimism that he would play after he practiced in full on Friday. Goodwin has appeared in seven games this season, catching 14 passes for 179 yards and two touchdowns. He can be left on waivers in most leagues.

		Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said that wide receiver Marquise Goodwin (groin) had a good day of practice on Friday, and assuming he responds well to Friday's workout, he looks good to play in Week 10 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Germany on Sunday. Goodwin could draw a questionable tag on the final injury report on Friday, but he appears ready to return after missing the Week 9 win over the Arizona Cardinals. The 31-year-old was only attractive as a waiver-wire pickup when there was a possibility that DK Metcalf could miss time due to a knee injury, but Metcalf has managed to tough it out and play through his injury. Goodwin has only 14 catches on 20 targets for 179 yards and two touchdowns in seven games in 2022.

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Marquise Goodwin (groin) practiced on a limited basis Wednesday. He was ruled out for last Sunday's game against the Arizona Cardinals with a groin issue. The 31-year-old logged a limited practice Wednesday and is trending in the right direction towards playing in the Germany game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He has 14 catches for 179 yards and two touchdowns over seven games in 2022. Goodwin is third on the wide receiver depth chart behind Tyler Lockett and DK Metcalf, making him a boom-or-bust flex at best against Tampa Bay in Week 10.

		Seattle Seahawks wide receivers DK Metcalf (knee) and Tyler Lockett (hamstring, ribs) do not carry injury designations into Week 9 and will play on Sunday against the Arizona Cardinals. Metcalf is dealing with a patellar tendon injury, but he managed to play in last week's win over the New York Giants and caught six of 10 targets for 55 yards and his third touchdown of the year on 63 percent of the offensive snaps. Both Metcalf and Lockett are must-start fantasy assets in a Seahawks offense that has looked very good under quarterback Geno Smith of late. The Cardinals defense has also been very generous to opposing pass-catchers this year, so both Metcalf and Lockett could have strong weeks.
		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Marquise Goodwin (groin) didn't practice at all this week and has been ruled out for Week 9 against the Arizona Cardinals. Goodwin came out of nowhere to catch four of his five targets for 67 yards and two touchdowns in Week 7 when DK Metcalf injured his knee, but Metcalf was able to return last weekend and Goodwin had four catches for 33 yards and no scores. The 31-year-old was a speculative waiver-wire pickup when it was uncertain if Metcalf would miss any time, but Goodwin can now be returned to the wire in most single-year leagues. With him out this Sunday, Dee Eskridge and Dareke Young will fight for scraps behind Metcalf and Tyler Lockett.
		Seattle Seahawks tight end Noah Fant (hamstring) put in a full practice on Friday and was removed from the final injury report. He will be ready to play on Sunday for a Week 9 contest against the Arizona Cardinals. Fant has done very little for fantasy managers in his first year in Seattle, catching 22 of his 28 targets for just 176 yards and one touchdown in eight games. Part of the reason is Will Dissly's presence, and that won't change this weekend, which makes Fant a low-upside, touchdown-dependent TE2 in deeper fantasy leagues. The 24-year-old won't carry much fantasy intrigue unless one of receivers DK Metcalf and/or Tyler Lockett miss time with injury.

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (knee) was a full participant in Thursday's practice. He was active in Week 8 against the Giants despite dealing with a patellar tendon injury. The 24-year-old is expected to play against the Arizona Cardinals in Week 9. He has recorded 37 catches for 473 yards and three touchdowns over eight games in 2022. Metcalf is a mid-range WR2 against an Arizona defense that ranks 21st in pass DVOA this season.
		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (hamstring, ribs) was a full participant in Thursday's practice. He is dealing with a pair of injuries but did suit up last Sunday against the Giants. The 30-year-old has been cleared and will play against the Arizona Cardinals in Week 9. He has racked up 46 catches for 531 yards and three touchdowns over eight games in 2022. Lockett is a mid-range WR2 against a Cardinals defense that ranks fifth in DVOA against the opposing team's WR2 this season.
		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Marquise Goodwin (groin) was a non-participant at Thursday's practice. With back-to-back missed practices, the 31-year-old is trending in the wrong direction toward suiting up for Sunday's game against the Arizona Cardinals. DK Metcalf (knee) and Tyler Lockett (hamstring, ribs) were both full participants in Thursday's practice. Goodwin will have one more chance to practice ahead of Sunday's contest. Dee Eskridge would see an uptick in targets if Goodwin is ruled out for Week 9.
		Seattle Seahawks tight end Noah Fant (hamstring) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice. He has now practiced in a limited capacity in back-to-back days. The 24-year-old will have one more chance to log a full practice ahead of Sunday's game against the Arizona Cardinals. He has 22 catches for 176 yards and one touchdown over eight games in 2022. Fant is a borderline streaming option in deep leagues in a plus matchup against a Cardinals defense that ranks 31st in DVOA against opposing tight ends.

		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (knee) was a limited practice participant Wednesday. He was active in Week 8 against the Giants despite dealing with a patellar tendon injury. The 24-year-old caught six receptions for 55 yards and a touchdown in last Sunday's win over the Giants. He is expected to be limited again in practice this week but will play Sunday against the Arizona Cardinals. Metcalf has been solid this season, catching 37 passes for 473 yards and three touchdowns over eight games in 2022. Barring a setback, Metcalf is a borderline WR1 against the Cardinals in Week 9.
		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (hamstring, ribs) was limited in practice Wednesday. He is dealing with a pair of injuries but did suit up last Sunday against the Giants. The 30-year-old caught five passes for 63 yards and a touchdown in the Week 8 win. He will be limited this week but is expected to play Sunday against the Arizona Cardinals. Lockett has racked up 46 catches for 531 yards and three touchdowns in eight games in 2022. Barring a setback, Lockett is a mid-range WR2 against the Cardinals and should remain in fantasy lineups against the Cardinals in Week 9.
		Seattle Seahawks tight end Noah Fant (hamstring) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice. He is dealing with a hamstring injury and will have two more chances to log a full practice before Sunday's contest against the Arizona Cardinals. The 24-year-old has posted modest production in his first full season with the Seahawks. He has caught 22 passes for 176 yards and a touchdown over eight games. Fant is considered a boom-or-bust streaming option against the Cardinals in Week 9.
		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Marquise Goodwin (groin) didn't practice Wednesday due to a groin injury. He was set for a more prominent role in Week 8 with DK Metcalf (knee) and Tyler Lockett (hamstring) dealing with injuries. Metcalf and Lockett were both active, and Goodwin was utilized as Seattle's WR3 in last Sunday's win over the Giants. The 31-year-old had four catches (on five targets) for 33 yards. Goodwin has two more chances to log a full practice ahead of Sunday's game. Goodwin is mainly an option in deep-league formats against the Cardinals in Week 9.

		After attempting to trade cornerback Sidney Jones at the deadline on Tuesday, the Seattle Seahawks waived him. Jones, a second-round pick by the Philadelphia Eagles in 2017 out of the University of Washington, will hit the open market after playing in just three games in his second season in Seattle. He played just 45 defensive snaps in those three contests and had five tackles (four solo). The 26-year-old also missed the Week 8 win over the New York Giants due to a groin injury, so he'll need to prove his health in order to latch on with another club. Jones had a career-high 66 tackles (45 solo) and 10 passes defensed in 16 games (11 starts) in his first year with the Seahawks in 2021.

		The Seattle Seahawks are signing free-agent wide receiver Laquon Treadwell to their practice squad on Tuesday, according to a source. The former first-round pick hasn't played yet in 2022 and spent the 2021 season with the Jacksonville Jaguars, recording 33 catches on 51 targets for 434 yards and a touchdown in 12 games (seven starts). He was cut from the Arizona Cardinals practice squad last Tuesday and will now give the Seahawks some depth with both DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett battling through injuries. The 27-year-old can continue to be ignored for fantasy purposes. In his six years in the NFL, Treadwell has 104 catches for 1,184 yards and five touchdowns on 165 targets in 70 games with the Minnesota Vikings, Atlanta Falcons and Jaguars.

		Seattle Seahawks running back Travis Homer (ribs) has been activated from injured reserve and is expected to be active for Week 8 against the New York Giants. Homer underwhelmed while filling a depth role earlier in the season, but he was playing behind Rashaad Penny and Kenneth Walker III at the time. Not only is Penny now sidelined, but DK Metcalf (knee) is also a longshot to play. As a result, Homer could immediately see volume in his first game back. He ranks as an RB5 in fantasy football this week.
		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (knee) is expected to play against the Giants, according to ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter. The 24-year-old injured his patella tendon in the Week 7 meeting with the Los Angeles Chargers, requiring a cart ride off the field. Tyler Lockett (hamstring, ribs) is also forecasted to be in the lineup. However, it's unknown if either will see a reduced workload. As a result, both men should be considered volatile fantasy options in Week 8 against an efficient Giants defense. At the same time, Marquise Goodwin remains a flex option in deeper formats after catching two touchdowns last Sunday.
		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (hamstring, ribs) is expected to play against the Giants, according to ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter. D.K. Metcalf (knee) is also forecasted to be in the lineup, so Seattle will have its two top wideouts against a sound Giants defense. However, considering the nature of their injuries, both men may be limited to some degree. There's also a chance Marquise Goodwin, who had two touchdowns in Week 7, remains involved, keeping him relevant as a flex option in deeper fantasy setups.
		Seattle Seahawks wide receivers DK Metcalf (knee) and Tyler Lockett (hamstring, ribs) are officially active for Sunday's game against the New York Giants. Metcalf has impressed this season, catching 31 passes for 318 yards and two touchdowns. Meanwhile, Lockett has amassed 41 catches, 468 yards, and two scores of his own. Both players should be viewed as high-end WR2 options this week, though it's worth noting that with Metcalf's injury in particular, there is a significant risk of re-injury.

		The Seattle Seahawks plan to activate running back Travis Homer (ribs) from Injured Reserve before the Week 8 game against the New York Giants, according to head coach Pete Carroll. It would fill the team's open roster spot. Homer missed the team's last four games while on Injured Reserve, but he returned to practice on Wednesday and didn't suffer any setbacks. In his three games before going on IR, the 24-year-old had just four carries for 18 yards while catching all four of his targets for 33 yards. He'll also contribute on special teams, but he'll immediately challenge DeeJay Dallas as the team's primary pass-catching back behind rookie Kenneth Walker III now that he's healthy again. Homer is worth a pickup in deep PPR leagues if he's available.

		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (knee) is considered week-to-week instead of day-to-day after suffering a patellar tendon injury in the Week 7 win over the Los Angeles Chargers, and the NFL Network's Ian Rapoport would be surprised if Metcalf plays this Sunday against the New York Giants. The 24-year-old has yet to practice this week and seems unlikely to suit up, so fantasy managers should have him stashed on their bench right now. If he's indeed inactive, Tyler Lockett and Marquise Goodwin would see more targets, as well as tight end Noah Fant. Metcalf remains a must-start fantasy asset when healthy, as he's recorded 31 catches on 52 targets for 418 yards and two touchdowns in his seven games in 2022.
		Seattle Seahawks wide receivers DK Metcalf (knee) and Tyler Lockett (hamstring, ribs) are both listed as questionable for Week 8 against the New York Giants. The Tacoma News Tribune's Gregg Bell writes that he hasn't seen anything to suggest that Metcalf will play on Sunday after injuring his patellar tendon in the Week 7 win over the Los Angeles Chargers. The good news is Metcalf was limited in practice on Friday, but all signs point to the Seahawks resting him this week. Lockett has a much better chance of playing and should be quarterback Geno Smith's top target through the air in Week 8. With Metcalf on the wrong side of questionable, Marquise Goodwin, who had two touchdowns last Sunday, will be on the flex radar if Metcalf is officially inactive. Making things more difficult for Metcalf and Lockett managers is the fact that the game kicks off later on Sunday.

		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (hamstring) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice. He didn't practice last week but did suit up against the Los Angeles Chargers last Sunday. The 30-year-old is expected to be limited this week but is expected to play against the New York Giants. Teammate DK Metcalf (knee) did not practice Wednesday due to a patellar tendon injury. Lockett could have an expanded role in Week 8 if Metcalf is sidelined and borderline WR1 against New York.
		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (knee) missed his second straight practice this week on Thursday. Metcalf has yet to practice after suffering a patellar tendon injury in the Week 7 win over the Los Angeles Chargers, and he's extremely questionable to play in Week 8 against the New York Giants. Fantasy managers need to formulate a backup plan in case the 24-year-old isn't able to suit up on Sunday. If Metcalf is sidelined, Tyler Lockett and Marquise Goodwin, who had two touchdowns last week, would see an uptick in targets, as would tight end Noah Fant. Lockett is also on the injury report with a hamstring ailment, but he practiced in full on Thursday and should be ready to go this weekend.
		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (hamstring) was able to return to a full practice on Thursday after being limited in Wednesday's session. Lockett missed practice all of last week but still had seven catches for 45 yards in the Week 7 win over the Los Angeles Chargers. The 30-year-old should be just fine to play this Sunday against the New York Giants, and there's a good chance he'll be quarterback Geno Smith's go-to target through the air with DK Metcalf (knee) looking unlikely to suit up this weekend. Lockett played only 67 percent of the offensive snaps last weekend, but he appears to be healthier this week, so that number should rise. If Metcalf is out, Lockett is a must-start fantasy wideout this week.

		Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said that wide receiver DK Metcalf (knee) went through a walkthrough on Wednesday but won't officially practice. Metcalf is feeling better, but the team is going to take it easy on him in practices to see how far he makes it heading into the Week 8 contest against the New York Giants on Sunday. The 24-year-old won't need surgery to fix a patellar tendon injury that he suffered in the Week 7 win over the Los Angeles Chargers, but it's a very real possibility that he'll miss time. Fantasy managers need to prepare for a worst-case scenario. If Metcalf isn't cleared for Week 8, Tyler Lockett and Marquise Goodwin, who had two touchdowns last Sunday, would have bigger roles in the passing game.

		Seattle Seahawks running back Travis Homer (rib) was placed on the injured reserve list late in September due to a rib injury but is expected to return to practice this week. Head coach Pete Carroll reported he "should" be back participating this week, meaning he could suit up as early as this Sunday against the Giants. After losing Rashaad Penny (leg) for the year, the team has turned to rookie Kenneth Walker III, who has been impressive since taking over. They also have DeeJay Dallas backing him up, so it will be interesting to see how they deploy Homer when he returns. For fantasy purposes, Walker III remains a top-15 back regardless of the other players in the backfield.

		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (knee) was forced to exit the team's Week 7 victory over the Los Angeles Chargers early after suffering a knee injury in the first half. Head coach Pete Carroll told reporters after the game that initial X-rays "showed nothing", but that Metcalf would undergo an MRI upon his arrival in Seattle. Fantasy managers should prepare to be without the fourth-year wideout for a few weeks but remain hopeful that he can return this season. Further details on the extent of the injury should be available early in the week.
		Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said the team got a "really good report" on wide receiver DK Metcalf (knee) after he was injured in the Week 7 win over the Los Angeles Chargers, and he doesn't need surgery. Carroll said Metcalf has a patellar tendon injury that may be an old injury. Metcalf is determined to practice on Wednesday, but Carroll is unsure if that will happen and won't place a timeline on the star receiver. We'll know more on the 24-year-old as the week progresses, but as of right now, fantasy managers should consider him extremely questionable for Week 8 against the New York Giants. Marquise Goodwin stepped up on Sunday after Metcalf was injured, leading Seattle in receiving with four catches, 67 yards and two touchdowns.
		Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said he isn't ruling wide receiver DK Metcalf (knee) out for a Week 8 matchup against the New York Giants after he was injured in the Week 7 win over the Los Angeles Chargers. The team will give Metcalf a couple of days to rest before they re-evaluate him. The good news is that the 24-year-old won't need surgery, but he's still very much in danger of missing at least the upcoming week, if not more. Fantasy managers will want to monitor Metcalf's practice status this week while also having backup options ready to go in case he's inactive next weekend. If he doesn't get cleared, Marquise Goodwin, who caught two touchdowns on Sunday, will have an elevated role yet again alongside Tyler Lockett.

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (hamstring) is officially active for Week 7 against the Los Angeles Chargers. He had been listed as questionable after missing all three practice sessions, but evidently, he feels good enough to play. Lockett ranks as a solid WR2 in an offense that has been clicking as of late.
		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (knee) won't return to Sunday's meeting with the Los Angeles Chargers. The wideout came down awkwardly on his knee after going up for a catch, requiring assistance to the locker room on a cart. Metcalf finished with only one reception for 12 yards. With that said, fantasy managers will certainly hope for a positive update heading into the Week 8 matchup against the New York Giants. However, if Metcalf can't go, Geno Smith may rely more on Tyler Lockett while giving extra attention to Will Dissly, Noah Fant, and Marquise Goodwin.

		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (hamstring) is listed as questionable for the team's Week 7 bout with the Los Angeles Chargers but plans to suit up. Lockett reportedly feels well-rested after missing practice all week. The 30-year-old is currently the fantasy WR13 in PPR scoring this season, vastly outproducing his average draft position. Hamstring injuries are always a bit concerning, but the Chargers are an enticing matchup for Lockett. With so many top players on bye this week, Lockett should be viewed as a solid WR2 in your fantasy lineup, assuming he is active.

		Seattle's wide receiver Tyler Lockett (hamstring) didn't practice, while tight end Noah Fant (illness) was back to full on Thursday. Lockett has now missed back-to-back practices and will have one more chance ahead of Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Chargers. The 30-year-old hasn't missed a game this season, and fantasy managers should continue to monitor the situation. Fant was limited Wednesday but back at full on Thursday. The 24-year-old has 19 catches for 150 yards and a touchdown over six games in 2022. Fant has at least 40 yards in back-to-back games and is a borderline TE2 in Week 7.
		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (hamstring) is officially listed as questionable for the Week 7 contest against the Los Angeles Chargers. Despite the questionable tag and no practice all week, head coach Pete Carroll said that Lockett has a "really good" chance of playing on Sunday against the Bolts. Fantasy managers will need to check back on Sunday, and Lockett's status makes him even more risky with the game being in the afternoon slate, but as of now it seems like he's on the right side of questionable. The 30-year-old has missed just one game in his career, although he played through the injury last week and caught just two passes for 17 yards. Marquise Goodwin and Dee Eskridge would have bigger roles in the passing game behind DK Metcalf if Lockett isn't cleared to play.

		Seattle Seahawks tight end Noah Fant (illness) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice. The 24-year-old was listed with an illness, but his ability to participate, albeit in a limited capacity, spells good things to come leading into Week 7. Fant is coming off of a Week 6 performance where he led the Seahawks in receiving. He'll look to continue his momentum against the Los Angeles Chargers if he's able to lose this illness by Sunday.
		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (hamstring) was not seen at Wednesday's practice. The eight-year receiver had a hamstring issue pop up for himself on Thursday heading into Week 6, and it appears to be lingering heading into Week 7. However, Lockett was able to suit up in Week 6, so this could just be a rest day after he played through his injury. Nevertheless, this is a situation to monitor throughout the week. The Seahawks are taking on the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 7. Lockett should be a solid start if he shakes this injury by the end of the week.

		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (hamstring) was added to the Week 6 injury report and was listed as limited in Thursday's practice, along with receivers Dee Eskridge (illness) and Dareke Young (quadriceps). Marquise Goodwin (back, knee) was a full participant for the second straight day. It's something to monitor, but Lockett's injury doesn't appear to be serious enough to keep him from playing this Sunday against the Arizona Cardinals. With quarterback Geno Smith stepping up in recent weeks, Lockett has come to life for his fantasy managers, and he had his second 100-yard game while scoring his first two touchdowns of the year in the Week 5 loss to the New Orleans Saints. Barring something unforeseen, Lockett profiles as a high-end WR2 this weekend.

		Seattle Seahawks running back Rashaad Penny (leg) is facing a four-month recovery after he has surgery to fix a fractured fibula. On a one-year deal, he'll be healthy with plenty of time to take free-agent visits once he officially hits the open market next March. Penny will have surgery on Tuesday morning, but the MRI exam on his injured ankle came back relatively clean with no deltoid or associated issues. He will undergo tight-rope surgery and have his fibula plated to stabilize his ankle. Fantasy managers can safely drop the 26-year-old in single-year leagues. In his absence, rookie Kenneth Walker III will become the primary back in Seattle, with DeeJay Dallas stepping up for an elevated role behind him for the rest of the season.
		The Seattle Seahawks claimed former New Orleans Saints running back Tony Jones Jr. off waivers on Monday with Rashaad Penny (leg) now done for the rest of the season, according to a source. Jones will provide depth in the running back room in Seattle behind rookie Kenneth Walker III and DeeJay Dallas with Travis Homer (ribs) still on Injured Reserve. In two games with the Saints this year, Jones had just two carries for eight yards and caught both of his targets in the passing game for 12 yards. The 24-year-old is strictly depth for the Seahawks and can continue to be ignored in fantasy leagues, even with Penny done for the year.

		Seattle Seahawks running back Rashaad Penny (leg) is set to undergo further testing on Monday to determine whether surgery is needed. The 26-year-old suffered a fractured fibula during Sunday's loss to the New Orleans Saints. The expectation is that Penny is going to be sidelined for the rest of the season. That means, Kenneth Walker III and DeeJay Dallas will need to pick up the slack in the backfield. In Week 5, Walker finished with 88 yards and a touchdown on eight carries. He's going to be one of the hottest pickups on the waiver wire this week with Penny likely lost for the year.
		Seattle Seahawks running back Rashaad Penny (ankle, leg) suffered a broken fibula in the Week 5 loss to the New Orleans Saints and will miss the rest of the season, according to head coach Pete Carroll. Penny also suffered a high-ankle sprain. The oft-injured 26-year-old will undergo surgery on his leg. He'll finish the 2022 season with 57 carries for 346 yards (6.1 yards per carry) and two touchdowns while also adding four catches on five targets for 16 yards in five games played. Penny will enter free agency this winter with plenty of injury questions. In his absence, rookie Kenneth Walker III is now in line to take over lead-back duties in Seattle, with DeeJay Dallas also in line for more work as the No. 2. Walker will be one of the most popular waiver-wire pickups this week.

		Seattle Seahawks rookie running back Kenneth Walker (shoulder) is officially active for Week 5 against the New Orleans Saints. He had been listed as questionable after logging limited practice sessions on Thursday and Friday. Walker has yet to make a major impact on offense, registering just 58 rushing yards and 14 receiving yards through three games. He should not be started in fantasy football.
		Seattle Seahawks running back Rashaad Penny (ankle) was carted to the locker room during the third quarter of Sunday's game against the New Orleans Saints. He had his left shoe off while riding the cart, all while receiving support from teammates. The team quickly announced that he is doubtful to return. The 26-year-old rushed eight times for 54 yards before exiting. Rookie Kenneth Walker will handle lead-back duties in Penny's absence.
		Seattle Seahawks running back Rashaad Penny (leg) was diagnosed with a fractured tibia, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. It was initially believed that the 26-year-old suffered an ankle injury. However, the news is much worse, with Penny next heading for testing to determine if surgery is required. The oft-injured veteran, who played only 13 games over the last two seasons, may be done for a while, if not for the remainder of the 2022-23 campaign. With Travis Homer (ribs) on the injured reserve list, the team will likely turn to Kenneth Walker III and DeeJay Dallas, although the former is expected to lead the backfield. Walker finished the Week 5 loss to the Saints by amassing 88 yards and a touchdown off eight carries. The rookie will surely draw waiver interest during the week, so fantasy managers should be prepared to act.

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III (shoulder) was limited during Thursday's practice session. The rookie back is reportedly nursing a shoulder injury, but the fact he was limited means it might be minor. Fantasy managers will have to wait and see what happens during Friday's practice with Walker. Regardless, he has been off to a very slow start with only 58 rushing yards on 15 attempts in his first three games. He won't be a recommended streaming option this week anyway.
		Seattle Seahawks running back Rashaad Penny (shoulder) returned to practice Thursday. He was dealing with a shoulder issue and held out of Wednesday's practice. The 26-year-old returned Thursday and is expected to play against the New Orleans Saints in Week 5. Penny had a season-high 18 touches and shredded the Lions' defense by racking up 157 yards from scrimmage in the Week 4 win over the Seahawks. Penny will be the Seahawks' lead back and is a borderline RB2 against a Saints defense that ranks 13th in rush DVOA this season.

		Seattle Seahawks running back Rashaad Penny (shoulder) was a non-participant at Wednesday's practice. He is dealing with a shoulder issue and was spotted on the side during warmups but did not practice. The 26-year-old shredded the Lions in the Week 4 win with 151 rushing yards and two touchdowns. Penny will have two more chances to practice before the Seahawks determine his status for Week 6 against the New Orleans Saints. Kenneth Walker III and DeeJay Dallas would see an uptick in usage if Penny cannot suit up in Week 6.

		Seattle Seahawks defensive end Darryl Johnson (foot) is expected to miss significant time after suffering an injury in Week 4. The fourth-year pro suffered a legitimate foot injury during the win over the Detroit Lions. The former seventh rounder is out indefinitely, but this isn't a huge loss for the Seahawks. Johnson only played 19% of the defensive snaps through the first four weeks.

		Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf, who was carted to the locker room, has returned to Sunday's game against the Detroit Lions. As it turns out, Metcalf was not injured but rather needed to use the restroom. Fantasy managers can breathe a sigh of relief knowing that Metcalf, who has totaled 213 yards and one touchdown over his last two games, remains healthy.

Friday, September 30

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III (shoulder) has been added to the injury report on Thursday. Luckily, the rookie back was able to practice in full on Thursday. It sounds like this is a minor issue, but it's still worth noting in case it limits Walker. Walker hasn't made much of an impact this season, but still has plenty of potential. The second-round rookie should continue to get touches, but that doesn't mean he'll be worth starting in fantasy formats. He'll hold RB4 value, assuming he's healthy enough to play in Week 4.

		Seattle Seahawks running back Travis Homer (ribs) was placed on injured reserve. The fourth-year back suffered the rib injury last week in Seattle's 27-23 loss to the Atlanta Falcons. He hasn't played much of a role in the backfield, scoring only 7.1 half-point PPR fantasy points this season. However, the loss of Homer opens up more snaps and opportunities for Rashaad Penny and Kenneth Walker III. Over the first two weeks of the year, Homer played 39.4% of the snaps. With him out for at least the next four games, Penny and Walker should earn most of those snaps.

		Seattle Seahawks running back Travis Homer (ribs) sustained an injury early in the team's Week 3 loss to the Atlanta Falcons and did not return. Head coach Pete Carroll stated after the game that Homer has bruised ribs. The fourth-year pro only handled four carries so far this season, but has been utilized for pass protection and did get involved as a receiving option in Week 2. In Homer's absence, DeeJay Dallas saw three carries and two targets and should see the field on passing downs going forward if Homer misses time.

		Seattle Seahawks running back Travis Homer (ribs) is questionable to return to Sunday's meeting against the Atlanta Falcons. Homer only had one carry for seven yards before going down, with Rashaad Penny currently outpacing the backfield. If he doesn't make it back in Week 3, Kenneth Walker III, who has only one carry for negative yardage, may be even more involved.

		Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III (hernia) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice. He had surgery for a hernia in mid-August and was inactive for Monday's Week 1 win over the Denver Broncos. The 21-year-old was a full participant on Wednesday and will make his NFL debut this Sunday against the San Francisco 49ers. Friday's practice status should give fantasy managers a good idea if Walker will suit up on Sunday. Walker will serve as Seattle's RB2 behind Rashaad Penny, but due to the uncertainty of his role in Week 2, he is not recommended flex option in Week 2.
		Seattle Seahawks rookie running back Kenneth Walker III (groin) was removed from the final injury report on Friday and will make his NFL debut in the Week 2 matchup against the division-rival San Francisco 49ers. Walker missed the season-opening win over the Denver Broncos after having hernia surgery, but he'll be active this Sunday. The 21-year-old should have a key role in Seattle's backfield this year, but it's unlikely that he'll immediately take over the lead-back role from Rashaad Penny. Fantasy managers that have the oft-injured Penny rostered should most definitely look to add Walker off the waiver wire if he's available. Walker won't be a recommended fantasy play in his NFL debut.

		Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III (hernia) practiced in full Wednesday. He had surgery for a hernia in mid-August and was inactive for Monday's Week 1 win over the Denver Broncos. "Kenny Walker is going to be out there this week for us to add to that, said head coach Pete Carroll. The 21-year-old will make his NFL debut against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 2. Walker will serve as Seattle's RB2 behind Rashaad Penny, who logged 12 carries for 60 yards, and two catches for seven yards In Monday's win over the Broncos. Fantasy managers should continue to stash Walker, but due to the uncertainty of his role, he is not recommended flex option in Week 2.
		Seattle Seahawks safety Jamal Adams (quadriceps) will undergo surgery to repair a torn quadriceps tendon, which will end his 2022 season. The 26-year-old suffered the injury in Week 1 against the Denver Broncos after recording three solo tackles in the game's early stages. Adams has struggled to stay healthy during his time in Seattle, as he has played in just 24 games since the 2020 season. To fill in his roster spot, the Seahawks signed cornerback Teez Tabor off the Falcons practice squad. Josh Jones, who registered seven total tackles (four solo) in Week 1, will fill the hole in the absence of the former Pro Bowler.

		Seattle Seahawks safety Jamal Adams (knee) suffered an injury and was carted to the locker room during his team's Monday Night Football game against the Denver Broncos. Adams injured his knee during the game and is doubtful to return. Adams made three tackles and had one pass defended in the contest before departing early. Expect the Seahawks to update his injury status after Monday's game. The oft-injured Adams is one of Seattle's best defenders, but an extended absence would leave a big hole in the team's secondary.
		Seattle Seahawks safety Jamal Adams (quadriceps) was forced to exit early in Monday's matchup with the Denver Broncos. The All-Pro safety was able to get to the sideline under his own power before being carted to the locker room. Despite that, it appears Adams has suffered a serious quad injury, according to head coach Pete Carroll. This is bad news, as the Seahawks could be without their three-time Pro Bowl safety for multiple weeks or longer. Fantasy managers in IDP leagues that started Adams in Week 1 will have to look elsewhere in Week 2.
		Seattle Seahawks safety Jamal Adams (quadriceps) was forced to exit early in Monday's matchup with the Denver Broncos. It was initially reported as a "serious" quad injury, which has since been described as a "torn quad." This certainly aligns with the initial prognosis, creating further concern about the extent of the injury. It's still unclear how long this would sideline the former All-Pro safety and what kind of recovery is involved. This is problematic for the Seahawks, who are lacking proven talent on their defense and gave up over 400 yards of offense last night to the Broncos. It also removes Adams as an option in IDP leagues, at least until we know more about the injury.
		Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said that rookie running back Kenneth Walker III (hernia) will return to make his NFL debut in Week 2 against the division-rival San Francisco 49ers. "Kenny Walker is going to be out there this week for us to add to that," Carroll said. The 21-year-old second-rounder had surgery for a hernia in mid-August and was inactive for Monday's Week 1 win over the Denver Broncos, but he'll return in Week 2. Rashaad Penny (12 carries for 60 yards, two catches for seven yards) was Seattle's clear lead back on Monday night and should be again this weekend against the 49ers, but Walker will slowly be eased into the rotation for Seattle. Walker should be stashed in all season-long formats, ideally by fantasy managers that also roster Penny, but he'll be hard to trust as a flex play in his first game coming off injury.
		Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said that All-Pro safety Jamal Adams (quadriceps, knee) will need surgery on his serious quad/knee injury that he suffered early in the Monday night win over the Denver Broncos in Week 1. The Seahawks don't have a firm timetable yet, but it doesn't look good for Adams. The oft-injured 26-year-old is reportedly dealing with an injury that's related to the quadriceps tendon of his left knee. Adams will almost surely be put on Injured Reserve, and it remains to be seen if he'll be able to return in 2022. Fantasy managers in IDP leagues will need to search for new starting options in Week 2, while Adams' loss is a huge blow to Seattle's secondary. Josh Jones replaced Adams on Monday night and should be the starter moving forward.

		Seattle Seahawks rookie running back Kenneth Walker III (hernia) is inactive in Week 1 against the Denver Broncos on Monday night. Walker was listed as questionable for the season opener, but he was always more of a long shot to suit up after he had hernia surgery in the middle of August. The 21-year-old second-rounder should remain stashed in all fantasy leagues, though, especially if you have the oft-injured Rashaad Penny already rostered. Penny will be Seattle's clear-cut No. 1 RB to open the season, with Travis Homer and DeeJay Dallas battling for change-of-pace duties against Denver. There's a chance that Walker could be ready to make his NFL debut in a Week 2 matchup with the division-rival San Francisco 49ers.

		Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III (hernia) is unlikely to suit up for the Week 1 matchup against the Denver Broncos. The rookie back was unable to practice on Thursday. At this point, it doesn't seem like Walker is going to have enough time to get ready for this contest. The expectation is that Rashaad Penny will be the lead back while Walker is sidelined. He should have some low-end RB2 value due to the volume of touches he should see as the primary back. The Seahawks should give another update on Walker later in the day on Friday. Although, fantasy managers should start preparing for a backup plan.

		Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III (hernia) is considered a game-time decision for Week 1, according to head coach Pete Carroll. The rookie running back is expected to get in some work on Thursday. He continues to deal with a hernia issue that could limit him to begin the season. The team is expected to have Rashaad Penny function as the lead back right away. Walker should get touches as the backup, but Travis Homer and DeeJay Dallas will get more chances, assuming Walker can't play on Sunday. Neither player is worth rostering right now. Walker is worth a stash in most formats, but isn't a recommended streaming option for Week 1.

		Seattle Seahawks rookie running back Kenneth Walker III (hernia) missed another practice on Tuesday. Walker has a little extra time with the team's Week 1 regular season opener against the Denver Broncos not until Monday night, but the 21-year-old doesn't appear to be on the right track to play. Walker did some running and catching on Monday, but head coach Pete Carroll doesn't know if Walker will be able to play against Denver after recovering from hernia surgery. Rashaad Penny is already the team's lead back heading into Week 1, but if Walker cannot go, Travis Homer and DeeJay Dallas will have bigger change-of-pace roles. Even if Walker is active, he won't be recommended for starting fantasy lineups in Week 1 because of the chance he'll be limited.

		Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III (hernia) got some work in on Monday as his team gears up to take on the Denver Broncos in Week 1's Monday Night Football game. Walker had hernia surgery in the middle of August in what the team called a "minor procedure". The rookie still has a shot to make it back onto the field for Week 1, although head coach Pete Carroll told reporters that he was "unsure" if Walker would play on Monday night. If Walker plays, he is likely to mix in behind starter Rashaad Penny and would be unlikely to see a full workload. Seattle's official practice reports later in the week will shed more light on Walker's status.

		Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III (hernia) is reportedly making progress. Head coach Pete Carroll mentioned that the Seahawks are taking it one day at a time with Walker. The rookie back is recovering from a hernia injury that knocked him out for the entire preseason. It sounds like his status for Week 1 is uncertain, but he should have a significant role once he returns. In the meantime, Rashaad Penny is expected to be the primary back in Seattle. Walker should hold fantasy value this season, but fantasy managers might have to be patient with him.
		The Seattle Seahawks cut wide receivers J.J. Arcega-Whiteside and wide receiver Freddie Swain, quarterback Jacob Eason, running back Darwin Thompson, cornerback Justin Coleman and safety Marquise Blair on Tuesday. Arcega-Whiteside was acquired in a trade from the Philadelphia Eagles during training camp, but he obviously didn't do enough to impress the team. The 25-year-old made a brief switch to tight end before converting back to wide receiver. The former second-rounder has been a huge bust in his three seasons in the NFL with Philly, catching 16 of 35 targets for 290 yards and only one touchdown in 40 games (seven starts).
		The Seattle Seahawks are expected to sign free-agent veteran quarterback Sean Mannion to their practice squad, according to a source. Mannion became available when the Minnesota Vikings released him during roster cutdown day on Tuesday. The 30-year-old former third-round pick of the Los Angeles Rams in 2015 has gone 67-for-110 for 573 yards, one touchdown and three interceptions in 14 career games (three starts) for the Rams and Vikings in his six NFL seasons. He'll serve as the No. 3 quarterback behind Geno Smith and Drew Lock in Seattle heading into the 2022 regular season.

		Seattle Seahawks running back Rashaad Penny has tested positive for COVID-19 and was unavailable for Thursday's practice. Head coach Pete Carroll disclosed that Penny wasn't working through any symptoms, which should clear the back for a return in the coming days. Penny is the presumptive new lead back in Seattle upon Chris Carson's retirement, with rookie Kenneth Walker III (hernia) also in the mix. Penny led the NFL last season with 6.3 yards per carry, notching 749 yards and six touchdowns on the ground across 10 contests. While he may begin the season firmly in flex territory, Penny could emerge as a solid RB2 option if he proves to garner the vast majority of carries and is able to stay healthy. The Seahawks open the regular season on Sept. 12 vs. Denver.

		Former Seattle Seahawks linebacker Shaquem Griffin announced his retirement from professional football on Wednesday. Griffin had his left hand amputated at age 4 because of amniotic-band syndrome and became the first player with one hand to be drafted in the NFL's modern era when Seattle took him in the fifth round in 2018. In three seasons with Seattle, the 27-year-old had 25 tackles (17 solo), six QB hits, one sack and a pass defensed in 46 games (one start). He signed with the Miami Dolphins last year but was released before the start of the regular season. Griffin wrote in his Players Tribune piece that "Football was always Plan B."

		Seattle Seahawks quarterback Drew Lock (illness) entered health and safety protocols on Tuesday after contracting COVID-19. This caused him to miss Thursday's preseason game against the Bears, which he was initially scheduled to start. The 25-year-old was reported as feeling "really sick" on Friday, according to head coach Pete Carroll. Fortunately, he returned to practice on Sunday. The former Bronco figures to get the nod against the Cowboys as long as his health permits him to play. Lock is battling teammate Geno Smith to lead this offense come Week 1, so any additional reps and game action would be beneficial. Nonetheless, even if he earns the starting job, he's still not a quarterback to target outside of Superflex and two-quarterback leagues. Still, even in those formats, he's a risky fantasy option.
		Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III (hernia) underwent surgery and doesn't have a timetable to return, according to head coach Pete Carroll. Originally, Walker was expected back for Week 1, but that doesn't sound like it's going to happen. Rashaad Penny will be the primary back until Walker is ready to return. Travis Homer and DeeJay Dallas are the only other viable options behind Penny. Both players could see some work in the backfield until Walker is back. Fantasy managers should continue to hold Walker because he does have strong upside. Hopefully, Walker won't be out for too long, but in the meantime, Penny looks like the workhorse back in Seattle.
		Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith (knee) split repetitions with the first-team offense at training camp practice on Sunday. Drew Lock was set to start the second preseason game last Thursday against the Chicago Bears before he tested positive for COVID-19, but with Lock also returning to practice on Sunday, it's unclear what the plan at QB will be this week for the preseason finale against the Dallas Cowboys. Smith suffered a minor bruised knee last Thursday against the Bears, but he should be just fine. Head coach Pete Carroll isn't in a rush to name the starting QB heading into Week 1 against the Denver Broncos, but it's expected to be Smith. Lock figures to play a lot against Dallas, and if he performs well and Smith continues to struggle, Lock could win the job.

		Seattle Seahawks quarterback Drew Lock was "really sick" with COVID-19, according to head coach Pete Carroll. Lock can come out of the league's COVID protocols on Sunday, and the thought was that he would start in the team's final preseason game, but that might not happen if Lock isn't healthy enough to play. The plan from the beginning was to have the 25-year-old start against the Chicago Bears in the second preseason game on Thursday, but that had to be scrapped. Even if Lock is able to play in the final preseason game, it would be a surprise if Geno Smith isn't the starter under center in Week 1 against the Denver Broncos. Lock has the stronger arm and could eventually overtake Smith during the regular season, but neither QB in Seattle will be very attractive in fantasy leagues in 2022.
		Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said that quarterback Geno Smith (knee) banged his knee in Thursday's preseason game against the Chicago Bears but that he could have returned to the contest. The injury doesn't seem serious at all and shouldn't affect Smith's availability for the start of the regular season. The 31-year-old started on Thursday with Drew Lock out with COVID-19, and he went 10-for-18 for 112 yards. Even if Lock is healthy enough to start the team's final preseason game next week, Smith is looking like the favorite to start under center in Week 1 against the Denver Broncos. Smith hasn't stood out by any means this summer at training camp, and he'll be nothing more than a low-end QB2 for fantasy managers in superflex leagues as the starter.
