Seahawks D/ST Could Face Issues in Week 5
The Seattle Seahawks defense/special teams is in for a tough challenge in Week 5 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. After getting several key defensive players back in Week 4, the Seahawks will again be depleted in Week 5. Notable absences this week include cornerback Devon Witherspoon (knee) and defensive end Demarcus Lawrence (quadricep). On a promising note, this unit has been battling substantial injuries since Week 2, yet they have turned in three straight double-digit fantasy efforts. The Buccaneers have a quality offense that just pushed an excellent Eagles defense to the brink in Week 4. While this game will occur in Seattle, the Bucs should still be able to move up and down the field. The Seahawks D/ST is still a low-end starting option in fantasy this week, but they do carry risk. The overall quality of the defense should minimize the chance for a catastrophic week, but if you have another quality option at D/ST, it may be best to look elsewhere in Week 5.
