Jaxon Smith-Njigba Worth A Flex In Week 16

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba played the hero in Week 15, tracking a deep pass from Drew Lock over his shoulder and pulling the ball in by his fingertips for a 29-yard, game-winning touchdown. The clock has run out for the rookie to have a lasting breakout but he has shown he is still […]

Tyler Lockett Fading But Still Flex Worthy

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett disappointed in Week 15, catching just three passes for 21 yards despite drawing a team-leading nine targets. Compounding the unfortunate performance was that it came against the Philadelphia Eagles' bottom-tier pass defense. In Week 16, Lockett has another chance to take advantage of a generous secondary when Seattle faces […]

DK Metcalf Has A Plus Matchup In Week 16

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf caught three passes for 58 yards to help set up the game-winning touchdown in Monday's surprise win over the Philadelphia Eagles. His involvement salvaged his game from a fantasy perspective, finishing with five catches and 78 yards. On Sunday, the Seahawks take on the Tennessee Titans who have allowed […]

Zach Charbonnet Back To Playing Second Fiddle

Seattle Seahawks running back Zach Charbonnet took four carries for 16 yards in Week 15 against the Philadelphia Eagles. The rookie had a near-equal snap share to Kenneth Walker III (shoulder) in the game but his four touches paled compared to Walker's 22. Charbonnet looked poised to take back the starter role after Walker missed […]

Cade York Placed On Injured Reserve

The New York Giants placed kicker Cade York (quadriceps) on injured reserve on Friday, after he aggravated a quad injury in practice on Thursday. York was next in line to take over as the Giants' kicker after Randy Bullock (hamstring) was injured in Week 15's game against the New Orleans Saints. New York signed 39-year-old […]

Michael Mayer Misses Practice Friday

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Michael Mayer (toe) logged his second consecutive DNP on Friday thanks to a toe injury. The Raiders play on Monday in Week 16, which gives the team one more day of practice to gauge the severity of Mayer's injury. The rookie has had an unremarkable season so far, with 304 […]

Greg Dulcich Officially Out For Week 16

Denver Broncos tight end Greg Dulcich (hamstring/foot) was officially ruled out of Week 16's matchup against the New England Patriots. Dulcich remains on injured reserve and is still in his 21-day practice window after Denver designated him to return on December 13. The 23-year-old practiced that day but foot soreness has kept him out of […]

Matt Gay Has No Injury Designation For Week 16

Indianapolis Colts kicker Matt Gay (hip) will not carry a designation into the Week 16 game against the Atlanta Falcons. Gay missed Wednesday's practice, then logged a limited session on Thursday, and on Friday was able to participate in full, per the team's official injury report. On the season, Gay has gone 26-for-33 on field […]

Rhamondre Stevenson Out Of Practice Again

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson (ankle) is missing a second consecutive day of practice leading up to their Sunday night game against the Denver Broncos. Stevenson suffered an ankle sprain in Week 13 against the Los Angeles Chargers and has missed the following two games. A second DNP in a row does not […]

Randy Bullock Place On Injured Reserve

New York Giants kicker Randy Bullock (hamstring) was placed on injured reserve on Thursday due to the hamstring strain that knocked him out of Week 15's loss to the New Orleans Saints. Bullock ends his season having made five of six field goal attempts and converting all 10 of his extra-point tries. The move opens […]

Jaxon Smith-Njigba Catches Game-Winning Touchdown

Wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba caught the game-winning touchdown for the Seattle Seahawks in their 20-17 victory over the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday night. The sure-handed rookie tracked a 29-yard strike over his left shoulder and reeled it in by his fingertips, putting Seattle ahead with 28 seconds left on the clock. Smith-Njigba caught all four […]

Tyler Lockett Sees Team-High Nine Targets

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett led the team with nine targets in Monday's 20-17 win over the Philadelphia Eagles. His 28% target share on the night resulted in just three catches for 21 yards, however. It was a disappointing turnout considering that coming into Week 15 the Eagles were allowing the most fantasy points […]

DK Metcalf Leads Team With 78 Receiving Yards

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf had a disappointing fantasy performance against the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday night. He finished with a modest five catches for 78 yards, both team highs in the Seahawks' 20-17 win. Coming into Week 15, the Eagles had allowed the most fantasy points per game to opposing wide receivers but […]

Zach Charbonnet Gets Four Carries On Monday

Seattle Seahawks running back Zach Charbonnet took a big step back on the depth chart on Monday night. Charbonnet had just four carries for 16 yards in the 20-17 win over the Philadelphia Eagles. The rookie was in on passing downs but he was targeted only once and did not record a catch despite quarterback […]

Kenneth Walker III Finds Paydirt Against Eagles

Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III took 19 carries for 86 yards and a touchdown and caught all three of his targets for 26 receiving yards in Monday's 20-17 win over the Philadelphia Eagles. Walker looked stuck in the mud in the first half, generating just three yards per carry, but things improved after […]

Drew Lock Upsets Eagles On Monday Night Football

Quarterback Drew Lock was tabbed for his second consecutive start after it was determined in pregame warmups that Geno Smith (groin) was better off sitting for another week. Lock went 22-for-33 for 203 passing yards in what was an underwhelming effort until Seattle's final drive of Seattle's eventual 20-17 victory over the Philadelphia Eagles. With […]

Drew Lock May Draw Start Monday Night

There is a real possibility that quarterback Drew Lock will draw a second consecutive start for the Seattle Seahawks on Monday night. Geno Smith (groin) is still feeling the effects of the groin injury that kept him out of Week 14 and will be a game time decision. Lock turned in a serviceable fantasy line […]

Seattle D/ST A No-Go In Week 15

The Seattle Seahawks have had a problem keeping their opponents out of the end zone all season long. Overall they have allowed 24.5 points per game, which ranks in the bottom eight of the league, and over the last three games they have given up an average of 33.3 points. On Monday night, the Seahawks […]

Jason Myers Not A Top Option In Week 15

Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers went into Week 14 having missed a field goal in three straight games. Myers had just one attempt in the loss against the San Francisco 49ers and hit it from 40 yards out. He also converted his lone extra-point try, bringing him to 26-for-26 on the season. His 78.8% success […]

Noah Fant Can Be Left On The Wire

Noah Fant is the only tight end on the Seattle Seahawks who runs routes more often than is used for blocking purposes. It was ironic, then, that it was Colby Parkinson scoring the group's first touchdown in Week 14 against the San Francisco 49ers. Fant does lead his companions in receptions (24) and yards (334) […]

Jaxon Smith-Njigba Flex Worthy In Week 15

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba has seen 18 targets over the last two weeks and should see a fair amount of work on Monday night. In Week 15 the Seahawks face the Philadelphia Eagles, who are allowing the most catches (15.8) and second-most receiving yards (193.8) per game to opposing wide receivers. The Seahawks […]

Tyler Lockett In Line For Another Big Game

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett caught all six of his targets for 89 yards in last week's loss to the San Francisco 49ers, making it his most productive game since Week 10. On Monday night, Lockett will have the benefit of facing one of the league's softest secondaries when Seattle takes on the Philadelphia […]

DK Metcalf Has Dream Matchup In Week 15

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf caught a touchdown pass from backup quarterback Drew Lock in Week 14 but had just one other catch in the game for a total of 52 yards. Stymied for the second time in three weeks by the San Francisco 49ers, Metcalf's frustrations boiled over late in the fourth quarter […]

Zach Charbonnet Gets Bad Matchup In Week 15

Seattle Seahawks running back Zach Charbonnet lost his hold on the top of the depth chart with the return of Kenneth Walker III in Week 14. Charbonnet still finished with 10 total touches in that game, taking nine carries for 44 yards and one reception for four more. Walker's 58% snap rate outdid Charbonnet's 40%, […]

Kenneth Walker III In A Tough Spot In Week 15

Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III took 8 handoffs for 21 rushing yards and caught four passes for 33 yards through the air in Week 14. It was his first time back on the field after missing two games with an oblique injury, which may explain why his touches were limited well below his […]

Equanimeous St. Brown Out For Week 15

Chicago Bears wide receiver Equanimeous St. Brown (pectoral) has been ruled out for Week 15's game against the Cleveland Browns. The same pectoral injury that forced him out of Week 14 prevented him from practicing at all this week. This will be the ninth game where St. Brown will be inactive. In the five games […]

Geno Smith Limited In Friday Practice

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith (groin) was limited in practice for a second day in a row on Friday. The 33-year-old missed Week 14's rematch against the San Francisco 49ers after picking up a groin injury during practice last week. In his stead, backup Drew Lock passed for 269 yards, two touchdowns, and two interceptions […]

Jamal Agnew Questionable For Week 15

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Jamal Agnew (ribs/shoulder) was designated to return from injured reserve on Wednesday and was able to log a limited practice every day this week. Agnew injured his ribs and shoulder in Week 10 against the San Francisco 49ers and missed the four games since while on injured reserve. He is questionable […]

Diontae Johnson Good To Go For Week 15

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Diontae Johnson (knee) returned to practice on Thursday after missing the previous session nursing a knee injury. The fifth-year veteran practiced on Tuesday with no word of an injury or problem, so it is unclear how or when he picked up the injury that kept him out on Wednesday. With Johnson […]

Alexander Mattison Ruled Out For Week 15

Minnesota Vikings running back Alexander Mattison (ankle) has been ruled out for Week 15's game against the Cincinnati Bengals. The ankle injury that forced Mattison out of Week 14's game against the Raiders kept him out of practice all week, and now the backfield will be in the hands of Ty Chandler. Chandler had fantasy […]
