Seattle Seahawks Fantasy Football News | Shark Bites

Seahawks RB Ken Walker (ankle) was a full participant in Tuesday's practice. That puts him on track to return for Thursday night's showdown vs. the 49ers. It's a brutal matchup against the 3rd toughest defense in terms of adjusted fantasy points allowed to RBs. But Walker's projected volume keeps him in the RB2 mix.

Seahawks HC Pete Carroll labeled RB Ken Walker (ankle) "day-to-day" on Monday. Walker was listed as a limited participant in Monday's practice, which was a light workout on the short week. It seems like he has a chance to return for Thursday night's game vs. the 49ers, but we'll get another update tomorrow. RB DeeJay Dallas (ankle) did not practice on Monday.

Seahawks QB Geno Smith struggled through most of Sunday's loss to the Panthers, including a pair of INTs. He nearly tossed a 3rd, but CB Jaycee Horn narrowly missed getting a 2nd foot down in bounds. Smith did wind up with a solid 264 yards and 3 TDs passing, the last coming with just 16 seconds to go and his team down 13. Seattle's top 3 WRs all scored, with Marquise Goodwin posting the top line: 5-95-1 on 6 targets. D.K. Metcalf went for 5-71-1 on a team-high 10 targets. Tyler Lockett caught 5 balls for 60 yards and a TD, marking his 6th straight game with a score. Seattle hosts a tough 49ers defense on Thursday night.

Seahawks WR D.K. Metcalf (hip) is active for today’s game vs. the Panthers. He was added to the injury report and limited on Thursday and then did not practice on Friday, but HC Pete Carroll said Friday that Metcalf was just getting some rest. It seems like Metcalf will be ready for his usual role in this one.

Seahawks RBs Ken Walker (ankle) and DeeJay Dallas (ankle) are inactive for today’s game vs. the Panthers. That leaves Seattle with RBs Travis Homer, Tony Jones and Godwin Igwebuike. ESPN’s Adam Schefter said this morning that Jones is expected to get the start.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports that Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker III is not expected to play today against the Panthers. That's more pessimistic than other Saturday reports calling Walker 50/50, but the rookie missed practice all week because of the ankle he injured last week. Don't bet on him being available for your fantasy football lineups this week. With DeeJay Dallas (ankle) also expected to sit, Travis Homer becomes an RB3-level option. We've had him projected as the starter since Tuesday in our Week 14 fantasy football rankings.

ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that Seahawks WR D.K. Metcalf "will play" today against the Panthers. Officially questionable with a hip issue, Metcalf should be in fantasy football lineups.

ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reports that Seahawks RB DeeJay Dallas (ankle) is viewed as a "long shot" to play Sunday against the Panthers. He adds that RB Kenneth Walker III (ankle) is still "considered 50/50." We'll watch the status of both players Sunday, but plan as though Walker won't be available for your fantasy football lineups. Even if he turns up active, Walker is bound to carry escalated risk.

Seahawks RBs Ken Walker (ankle) and DeeJay Dallas (ankle) are listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Panthers. Neither guy practiced all week, but HC Pete Carroll labeled them game-time decisions. RB Travis Homer (knee) isn’t listed on the final injury report and will be available on Sunday. RB Tony Jones is also on the active roster, while RBs Darwin Thompson, Wayne Gallman and Godwin Igwebuike are on the practice squad. We’ll see if Seattle elevates any of those guys on Saturday.

Seahawks WR D.K. Metcalf (hip) is listed as questionable for this weekend's game vs. the Panthers. He was added to the injury report and limited on Thursday and then did not practice on Friday. HC Pete Carroll said Friday that Metcalf was just getting some rest and will be fine for Sunday. Metcalf can stay penciled into fantasy lineups for now, but we'll look for further updates on his status.

Seahawks QB Geno Smith (right shoulder) is not listed on the final Week 14 injury report. He was added on Thursday and limited in practice, but Smith was upgraded to full participation on Friday. It all suggests that the shoulder issue won't be a factor vs. the Panthers this weekend.

Giants DL Leonard Williams (neck) is doubtful for Sunday's game against the Eagles. His likely absence can only help a matchup that already looked just fine for RB Miles Sanders. CB Adoree' Jackson (knee) is out. It'll be his 2nd straight missed game, leaving the D without its top corner.

Seahawks WR D.K. Metcalf was added to the injury report and limited in practice on Thursday with a hip issue. We'll see what he does on Friday and how he's listed on the final injury report for this weekend's game vs. the Panthers.

Seahawks QB Geno Smith was added to the injury report and limited in practice on Thursday with a right shoulder injury. We don't have any other details right now, but a QB dealing with an issue with his throwing shoulder is certainly worth monitoring. We'll get another update on Geno tomorrow.

Seahawks RBs Ken Walker (ankle) and DeeJay Dallas (ankle) missed practice again on Thursday. RB Travis Homer (knee) was upgraded to full participation. Fantasy owners shouldn't be counting on Walker to play vs. the Panthers this weekend. We'll see how the rest of the backfield shakes out.

Seahawks RBs Ken Walker (ankle) and DeeJay Dallas (ankle) did not practice on Wednesday. RB Travis Homer (knee) was limited. So Homer is out to the early lead in the race to be Seattle's Week 14 lead back. He's worth adding in most fantasy leagues while we continue to monitor this backfield over the next few days. The Seahawks also have RB Tony Jones on the active roster and RBs Wayne Gallman and Darwin Thompson on the practice squad

Giants DL Leonard Williams left Sunday's game against the Commanders after hurting his neck. HC Brian Daboll said Monday only that Williams' neck is sore and that they're not sure yet about his status for the Week 14 game against the Eagles.

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker is dealing with a strain on the inside of his foot, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. The injury is not believed to be serious, and the team reportedly doesn't even consider him out for Week 14 at this point. We'll see how the week progresses for the rookie back. If Walker does miss the game, Seattle would replace him with some combo of DeeJay Dallas, Travis Homer (who was inactive Sunday) and Tony Jones Jr.

Seahawks QB Geno Smith threw for 367 yards in Sunday's win over the Rams, setting a new career high for yardage. WRs Tyler Lockett and D.K. Metcalf each had big lines. Lockett delivered 9-128-1 receiving on a team-high 12 targets. Metcalf added 8-127-1 on 8 targets. TE Noah Want claimed the 3rd of Smith's TD throws, catching 4 balls for 42 yards in all. Week 14 holds a decent matchup with the Panthers.

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker III suffered an ankle injury in the 1st half against the Rams. He's questionable to return. We'll watch for updates on his status.

Update: Walker has been ruled out.
