Seahawks WR Rashid Shaheed (knee) is out for Sunday’s game vs. the Cardinals. WR Tory Horton will stay in an expanded role but isn’t a legitimate fantasy option. He posted a 3-26-0 line on 6 targets last week.

Seahawks WR Rashid Shaheed (knee) is out for Monday night's game vs. the Bears. WR Tory Horton should see a boost in playing time but is only in play in single-game daily contests.

Seahawks WR Rashid Shaheed (knee) did not practice on Thursday. He reportedly dodged a long-term injury, but we're not expecting Shaheed to play vs. the Bears on Monday night. That'd mean a boost in snaps for WR Tory Horton.

Seahawks WR Rashid Shaheed has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday night's game vs. the Chiefs due to a knee injury. He caught 2 of 3 targets for 1 yard before exiting. Shaheed entered tonight third among Seattle WRs in routes (61%) and second in target share (13.6%). His absence moves WR Tory Horton into a top-3 spot on the depth chart.

The production that Jaxon Smith-Njigba just continues to deliver is so absurd that it doesn't even feel newsworthy. He contributed another 10 catches for 128 yards and 2 TDs in Sunday's loss to the Commanders. That makes three straight games of 8+ catches, 122+ yards, and 1+ TDs to open the season. He had four such games all last season.

ESPN's Jeremy Fowler says Seattle's new offense under first-time OC Brian Fleury will include "a lot of" multiple-TE sets and a good bit more work for WR Rashid Shaheed in his first full season with the team.

Seahawks WR Tory Horton will be out "for a period of time," HC Mike Macdonald said Friday. He wouldn't give any other details about Horton's injury or when he might be back.

Seahawks beat writer Gregg Bell writes that QB Sam Darnold and WR Rashid Shaheed have a "rapidly improving connection."

Seahawks WR Tory Horton avoided the PUP list to open training camp after a cracked tibia cost him the final nine regular-season games and the playoffs. Horton told ESPN’s Brady Henderson that he first felt the injury in Week 3, and it only worsened from there. He underwent surgery in February to have a rod implanted in his leg but is a full go for the start of training camp.

WR Rashid Shaheed was one of our favorite sleepers heading into last season. He got off to a solid start, catching 44 balls for 499 yards and 2 scores over his first nine games. But a midseason trade to Seattle crushed Shaheed's fantasy value. He totaled just 15 catches for 188 scoreless yards across nine games with the Seahawks. Shaheed is back with the Hawks this year, and it sounds like he's on track to play a bigger role in the offense. ESPN's Jeremy Fowler hears that Shaheed is set to be a "big-time player" for Seattle. It sets him up as a classic post-hype fantasy sleeper.

The Seahawks have agreed to a three-year deal with WR Rashid Shaheed. ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that it'll pay $51 million in total, with $34.7 million of that guaranteed. Seattle traded fourth- and fifth-round picks to the Saints for Shaheed ahead of last season's trade deadline.

Seahawks WR Rashid Shaheed (concussion) is not listed on the final Week 18 injury report. He's cleared protocol and will play vs. the 49ers on Saturday night. Shaheed seemed to be gaining momentum with 4-67-0 and 5-74-0 receiving lines in Weeks 14 and 15. But he went catch-less in Week 16 before exiting Week 17 early. Shaheed would be a shaky start in season-long leagues but has enough upside to consider in daily contests.

Seahawks WR Rashid Shaheed (concussion) was upgraded to full participation in Wednesday's practice. He's on track to play vs. the 49ers on Saturday night, barring a setback. Shaheed has topped 27 yards in just two of his eight games with Seattle, so he's not much of a fantasy option. But his availability is good news for the Seahawks' passing game and special teams.

Seahawks WR Rashid Shaheed was listed as a limited participant on Tuesday's practice report. (The team actually just held a walkthrough.) It means he's made some progress through the protocol, giving him a shot to play against the 49ers on Saturday night. We'll keep you posted on Shaheed's status leading up to that one.

Seahawks WR Rashid Shaheed sustained a concussion in the first half of Sunday's game vs. the Panthers and won't return. It's his first documented concussion. Shaheed will be iffy for next weekend's regular-season finale but should be back for the playoffs, especially if Seattle locks up the first-round bye.

The forecast for tonight's Rams-Seahawks game calls for a 40-50% chance of rain with winds around 20 mph and gusts up over 30. The rain shouldn't be impactful, but the wind will be. Per Rotogrinders' Kevin Roth, we could see gusts of 30-40 mph in the first half, tapering off to around 30 mph in the second. We'd shy away from using either kicker in this game. We're not adjusting projections for the offenses but could certainly see both teams lean a bit more toward the run. This was already a tough spot for QB Matt Stafford, on the road against a tough defense and without WR Davante Adams.
