Travis Homer is a fantasy football waiver wire pickup option for running backs. Target him as a free agent add off waivers for Week 15 of the 2022 NFL season.
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 38% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: The nebulous situation that surrounded the health of Kenneth Walker (ankle) and DeeJay Dallas (ankle) became the source of continual scrutiny for anyone who had Walker contained on their rosters entering Week 14.
It also ignited interest in other members of the Seahawks’ backfield prior to the team’s Week 14 matchup with Carolina, as other fantasy managers considered the addition of Travis Homer and Tony Jones Jr. as potential resources during the problematic six-team bye week that occurred in Week 14.
Walker and Dallas were ultimately inactive versus the Panthers, as Homer led Seattle with nine rushing attempts and 26 rushing yards, while Jones gained two yards with his only carry.
Homer also paced the backfield in targets (three) and receptions (two), although his numbers failed to supply the point production that appeared attainable in his role as a rusher and receiver.
The status of Walker and Dallas should be monitored during the week, and Homer is only a recommendation for managers that are facing desperation. He could be presented with another path toward touches during Thursday’s matchup with San Francisco, although he would only operate as a flex versus the formidable 49ers defense if that scenario transpires.
