Jason Myers Has Kick Blocked

Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers had a game-tying kick blocked and returned for a touchdown in Week 5 against the New York Giants.

Kenneth Walker III Salvages Day With Big Receiving Line

Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III is not known for his receiving prowess. However, he ended up leading the Seahawks in targets with eight in Week 5.

Tyler Lockett Has Another Flex-Worthy Outing

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett has become a consistent flex option this season.

He has earned […]

Zach Charbonnet Once Again In Backup Role

Seattle Seahawks running back Zach Charbonnet finds himself in a secondary role to Kenneth Walker III (oblique) once again.

Charbonnet did see a 42% snap […]

Jaxon Smith-Njigba A High-Risk, High-Reward Player In Week 5

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba has been a two-faced player in 2024. He has two games with 12 or more targets with 13.1 fantasy points in each of those games.

Jason Myers Should Bounce Back In Week 5

Noah Fant Continues To Remain Off The Fantasy Radar

Tyler Lockett A Flex Option In Week 5

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (thigh) finds himself in the flex conversation once again in Week 5. Lockett has earned at least seven targets in three of four games this season and that volume will keep him fantasy relevant. Unfortunately, Lockett has only cleared 61 yards in one game. He also has yet to […]

DK Metcalf A WR1 In Week 5

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (hand) has been nothing short of excellent in 2024. Metcalf has 24 receptions for 366 yards and two touchdowns this season.

Kenneth Walker III A Top-10 Play In Week 5

Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III (oblique) is coming off a huge three-touchdown performance against the Detroit Lions in Week 4.

Seahawks D/ST Should Have A Nice Day Against Giants

The Seattle Seahawks defense/special teams is headed into a matchup against the New York Giants in Week 5.

Rico Dowdle's Role Expanding As Cowboys Main Running Back

Dallas Cowboys running back Rico Dowdle has seen his touches steadily outpace Ezekiel Elliott and Deuce Vaughn in 2024, especially over the last three weeks.

Drake Maye May Be Ready To Start But Jacoby Brissett Remains The Starter

The Athletic's Chad Graff stated on Tuesday that conversations with New England Patriots players and head coach Jerod Mayo indicate that the team believes rookie quarterback Drake Maye is ready to be an NFL starter.

Jalen McMillan And Trey Palmer Log DNPs On Tuesday

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receivers Jalen McMillan (hamstring) and Trey Palmer (concussion) did not practice on Tuesday. Both players are significant depth pieces for the Buccaneers at wide receiver.

Mike Evans Upgrades To Limited In Practice On Tuesday

Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers only managed to deliver two fantasy points on Monday night. Myers was 3/3 on extra points.
