Wide Receiver Matchups To Target In Week 13

In Week 12, several of the wide receivers recommended in last week's column came through with solid performances.

Comeback Mode: Upside Plays for Post-Thursday Lineup Deficits

On Fridays after a Thursday night game, fantasy owners tend to get anxious if they have fallen behind after one game has wrapped.

Jadeveon Clowney, Jarran Reed Limited In Practice

Seattle Seahawks defenders Jadeveon Clowney (core), Jarran Reed (ankle), and Mychal Kendricks (hamstring) were limited participants in practice on Friday, and there's a real chance that the Seahawks Defense that takes the field on Monday night could be without over 25% of its usual starters.

Splitting RBs in Seattle? Examining Chris Carson & Rashaad Penny

For the second time this season, Chris Carson’s fantasy owners are concerned about his workload because of fumbling issues.

Jacob Hollister Limited In Practice

Seattle Seahawks tight end Jacob Hollister was a limited participant in practice on Friday due to a nagging toe injury. Hollister has been one of the most recent surprises on the Seahawks roster as he's been promoted into a starting role and quickly become one of Russell Wilson's favorite targets, but there's a possibility that […]

Josh Gordon May Get More Work On Monday

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Josh Gordon has played a minor role so far since joining the team, but he could be in for a more central spot on Monday night against Minnesota.

Chris Carson Looking To Bounce Back Against Vikings

Rashaad Penny Expected To See A Bump In Carries

Seattle Seahawks running back Rashaad Penny had the best game of his career last week when he saw a surprisingly heavy workload against the Eagles.

Tyler Lockett Misses Practice With Illness

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (illness, shin) did not practice on Friday after being limited on Thursday.

Wide receivers D.K. Metcalf […]

Seahawks Committed To Chris Carson

Seattle Seahawks offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer said that "Chris Carson is our guy" heading into Week 13 against the Vikings on Monday night. However, the OC did say he liked seeing backup Rashaad Penny get rewarded with a big game last week after Carson's fumbling issues resurfaced. Penny finally had a good game for fantasy […]
