Dissly out Wednesday

Seahawks TE Will Dissly missed Wednesday's practice with a calf issue. Dissly isn't much of a fantasy option, but his absence vs. the Panthers this weekend would be a boost for TE Noah Fant.

The Seahawks placed TE Will Dissly on IR with a knee injury, ending his regular season. Dissly has averaged 2.5 targets per game this season, so his absence is just a slight boost to TE Noah Fant's fantasy value.

Seahawks TE Will Dissly (calf) is active for today’s game vs. the Panthers. He should continue splitting routes with TE Noah Fant.

Seahawks TE Will Dissly (calf) is listed as questionable for this weekend's game vs. the Panthers. He got in limited practices on Thursday and Friday and will play on Sunday, HC Pete Carroll said. Dissly should continue splitting routes with TE Noah Fant and would be a desperation fantasy play.

Seahawks TE Will Dissly (calf) returned to a limited practice on Thursday. That gives him a shot to play vs. the Panthers this weekend, but we'll see how he's listed on the final injury report tomorrow.

TE Will Dissly is re-signing with the Seahawks for $24 million on a 3-year deal, according to multiple reports. It's particularly surprising money because Seattle just acquired Noah Fant in the Russell Wilson trade. The Seahawks have clearly liked Dissly's run-blocking, but the $8 million per year on his new contract suggests we shouldn't dismiss him as a passing-game piece. That said, Dissly averaged just 1.8 targets per game over the past 2 seasons. So perhaps Seattle is just wildly overpaying for a blocking TE.
