ANALYSIS: Tyler Lockett, who has been a solid wide receiver in the NFL for almost a decade, has had a pretty good start to his 2024 campaign. Through the first four games of the season, he is averaging 9.5 fantasy points per game (PPR) and is coming off a Week 4 loss where he received his season high in targets (nine).

Lockett, 32, has had successful fantasy seasons, finishing in the top 15 wide receivers for four straight years from 2019-22. As he approaches the end of his career, he still can provide plenty of fantasy value.
Even though he is part of a receiving room filled with talent (along with DK Metcalf and Jaxon Smith-Njigba), Lockett still has plenty of opportunity to see targets and earn fantasy points. The Seattle Seahawks are one of the most pass-dependent teams in the NFL and currently rank first in passing yards (280.8).
Lockett is a consistent, dependable fantasy option that fantasy managers can rely on as their team's WR4 or WR5. Managers who need a veteran presence who will undoubtedly keep catching passes should consider adding Lockett starting in Week 5.
