Seattle Seahawks Fantasy Football News | Shark Bites

Seahawks HC Pete Carroll was non-committal on WR Tyler Lockett's Week 17 availability when asked on Monday. "We'll see where he is," Carroll said. "I don't know.'' Lockett has re-joined the team after spending last week in Los Angeles recovering from surgery to repair a fractured finger. The 7-8 Seahawks are desperate enough to potentially push Lockett to play vs. the Jets this weekend, but fantasy owners should have an alternate option lined up. We'll keep you updated on Lockett's status throughout this week.

Seahawks QB Geno Smith threw for just 215 yards on 25-of-40 passing in Saturday's loss to the Chiefs, with 1 TD and 1 INT. His 74.5 passer rating was his lowest mark of the year. WR D.K. Metcalf led the receiving with 7 catches for 81 yards on 9 targets. RB DeeJay Dallas checked in next by catching all 6 of his targets for 32 yards. WR Marquise Goodwin went catch-less among 4 targets. TE Noah Fant caught the team's only TD among 2 receptions for 12 yards. Seattle might get better weather in Week 17 but will face a much tougher defense in the Jets.

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker entered Saturday's game questionable after missing practice all week with an ankle injury. But then he racked up 26 carries for 107 yards (4.1 per rush). The rookie added 2 catches for minus-2 yards in the loss to the Chiefs. He gets a tough matchup with the Jets in Week 17.

Seahawks TE Noah Fant (knee) is active for today’s game vs. the Chiefs. He only got in a limited practice on Thursday and was listed as questionable, so Fant figures to be operating at less than 100% in this one.

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker (ankle) is active for today’s game vs. the Chiefs. He didn’t practice all week, so it’s safe to assume that he’s not at 100%. Walker played 75% of Seattle’s offensive snaps with this injury last week, though, and we haven’t heard anything about him being limited today. See where Walker sits in the Week 16 RB Rankings. RB DeeJay Dallas (ankle) is also active today; RB Wayne Gallman is a healthy scratch.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport hears that Seahawks TE Noah Fant (knee) is expected to play vs. the Chiefs today. Fant is listed as questionable after getting in just a limited practice on Thursday, so it's safe to assume he won't be at 100% for this one. He remains in the fantasy mix, though, with WR Tyler Lockett's absence freeing up a bunch of target opportunity.

Seahawks RB Ken Walker (ankle) is expected to play vs. the Chiefs today, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Walker played through this injury last week, tallying 12 carries and 5 targets on a 75% snap rate. But he didn't practice at all this week and is listed as questionable. Walker clearly isn't at 100%, adding some risk to his Week 16 fantasy profile.

The Seahawks elevated RBs Godwin Igwebuike and Wayne Gallman from the practice squad for Saturday's game vs. the Chiefs. That might suggest some concern over RB Ken Walker's availability. He's listed as questionable with his ankle injury and didn't practice all week. We'll look for an update on Walker in the morning and will get Seattle's inactives around 11:30 am ET.

Seahawks TE Noah Fant (knee) is officially listed as questionable for Week 16 vs. the Chiefs. HC Pete Carroll said Thursday that he anticipates Fant will be able to play on Saturday. The Chiefs' defense ranks as the 8th-best matchup for opposing TEs in adjusted fantasy points allowed in 2022. As such, Fant is best considered a high-end TE2 candidate.

Both RB Kenneth Walker (ankle) and RB DeeJay Dallas (ankle) are "likely to play" in Week 16 according to Seahawks HC Pete Carroll on Thursday. Dallas falls out of fantasy consideration with the news that his rookie teammate also seems good to go vs. the Chiefs. Walker has been dealing with this ankle issue for a few weeks now but is still considered a high-end RB2 candidate in what is a generally neutral matchup for fantasy purposes.

Seahawks TE Noah Fant (knee) was not a participant in practice again on Wednesday. This marks the 2nd day in a row the TE did not log any practice. At this point, it doesn't seem like he'll be playing against the Chiefs on Saturday. We'll get a final word on his Week 16 status tomorrow though. Keep an eye out for updates.

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker (ankle) did not practice again on Wednesday. Teammate DeeJay Dallas (ankle) is moving in a positive direction and logged a limited practice ahead of Week 16. A final injury status for both Walker and Dallas will come on tomorrow's report. We'll know more about who is healthy enough to play against the Chiefs on Saturday soon.

Seahawks TE Noah Fant (knee) was a no-go at practice on Tuesday. The Seahawks are set to square off against the Chiefs this Saturday. We’ll keep our eyes peeled for updates on this front later today. Early signs are troubling, however.

Seahawks RB Ken Walker (ankle) did not practice on Tuesday. HC Pete Carroll said that Walker was “a little sore coming out” of Thursday night's loss to the 49ers. “We will see how this week goes,” Carroll added. “We have to give him every day to get back." We'll get another update on Walker tomorrow. RB DeeJay Dallas (ankle) was also sidelined on Tuesday.

Seahawks HC Pete Carroll said Tuesday that there's a chance WR Tyler Lockett (finger) makes it back for Week 17. He underwent successful surgery to repair his fractured finger on Monday. We'll keep an eye on Lockett's status, but he's worth keeping stashed on fantasy benches in most cases.

Giants DL Leonard Williams (neck) is active for tonight’s game against the Commanders. CB Nick McCloud (illness) is active as well

Giants DL Leonard Williams (neck) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Commanders. Williams missed last week's game after leaving the previous Washington meeting early. We'll see about his status Sunday evening. The late kick makes him tough to wait for in many IDP lineups.

Seahawks WR Tyler Lockett will undergo surgery to repair his fractured finger, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. "It's possible he only misses one game and is back for the final two," Rapoport adds. "But a firm timetable will be available post-surgery." We'll keep you update on Lockett's rehab and timeline for return. His absence next weekend will leave Marquise Goodwin as Seattle's #2 WR -- and leave potential targets for WR D.K. Metcalf and TE Noah Fant.

Seahawks WR Tyler Lockett broke a bone in his index finger late in Thursday night's loss to the 49ers, HC Pete Carroll said. It's unclear right now whether Lockett will need surgery, but Carroll suggested that the injury could sideline Lockett for the rest of the season. We should get more details on the situation today. Hang on to Lockett on fantasy rosters for now -- but prepare to be without him the rest of the way.

Seahawks RB Ken Walker (ankle) is not listed on the final injury report for Thursday night's game vs. the 49ers. He was a full-go in practice on Tuesday and Wednesday. It all suggests that Walker should be ready for at least something close to his normal workload -- but the matchup against San Francisco's 3rd-ranked RB defense leaves Walker as a lower-end RB2 this week. RB DeeJay Dallas (ankle) is listed as questionable but is obviously off the fantasy radar with Walker back.
