Will Tyler Lockett Play In Week 1? Fantasy Football Injury Update
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett has been a mainstay of fantasy football for years, scoring more than eight touchdowns for five years straight (2018-2022) and recording 1,000 receiving yards for four consecutive years (2019-2022). Lockett has been incredibly trustworthy at outplaying his ADP and being a steady presence in starting lineups, delivering WR2/Flex-worthy numbers. […]
Tyler Lockett Deemed Questionable For Sunday
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (thigh) is questionable for Sunday's season opener, according to Brady Henderson of ESPN. The veteran pass catcher has been dealing with a lingering thigh injury through most of August. Lockett was a limited participant during this week's practices. Fantasy managers should continue to follow the 31-year-old's status prior to […]
Pharaoh Brown Ruled Out On Sunday
Seattle Seahawks tight end Pharaoh Brown (foot) was ruled out for the season opener against the Denver Broncos, according to Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic. Brown suffered a foot injury earlier in August during a team practice and has not returned to practice yet this week. As a result, the 30-year-old will remain sidelined during […]
Seahawks D/ST A Top-Five Option In Week 1
The Seattle Seahawks defense/special teams will get a rookie quarterback in Bo Nix when the Denver Broncos visit Seattle in Week 1. The Seahawks' defense should be improved in 2024, especially with head coach Mike Macdonald coming over from the Baltimore Ravens. Rookie quarterbacks tend to struggle in the NFL. Nix has more college experience […]
Noah Fant Not A Starting Tight End In Week 1
Seattle Seahawks tight end Noah Fant (toe) should not be on fantasy radars in Week 1. The Seahawks will host the Denver Broncos and project to have a solid day on offense. However, Fant has not been much of a fantasy contributor during his three-year tenure as a Seahawk. There is always the chance that […]
Zach Charbonnet Off The Fantasy Radar In Week 1
Seattle Seahawks running back Zach Charbonnet is better left on your bench in Week 1 when the Seahawks host the Denver Broncos. The Broncos had one of the league's worst rushing defenses in 2023. However, Charbonnet is unlikely to see a large enough rushing share to be effective for fantasy. If history is any indication, […]
Jason Myers A Solid Option In Week 1
Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers is a solid option in fantasy in Week 1. The Seahawks offense should have plenty of chances to score on Sunday against a middle-of-the-road Broncos defense. Myers was the K6 in 2023 and should be able to pick up where he left off. He is an incredibly accurate kicker and […]
Geno Smith Outside Of The QB1 Options In Week 1
Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith finds himself outside of the starting options at the position in Week 1 against the Denver Broncos. This is nothing against Smith who should actually have a bounce-back season with new offensive coordinator Ryan Grubb. The matchup is also relatively neutral as the Denver Broncos were middle of the pack […]
Kenneth Walker III A Fringe RB1 In Week 1
Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III draws an excellent matchup against the Denver Broncos in Week 1. The Broncos boasted the third-worst rushing defense in the NFL in 2023. The defense improved as the season progressed, but there is no reason to believe they will be able to hold Walker in check in Week […]
Week 1 Will Be A Proving Ground For Tyler Lockett In Fantasy
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (thigh) enters Week 1 after being limited in practice for much of training camp. With Jaxon Smith-Njigba emerging this preseason, the Seahawks have three excellent options at wide receiver. Lockett slowed down in 2023. After four straight 1,000-yard seasons, Lockett only recorded 894 yards and five touchdowns in 2023. […]
Jaxon Smith-Njigba Is A Flex Play With Upside In Week 1
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba has an excellent opportunity to make a statement in Week 1. With DK Metcalf drawing the attention of cornerback Patrick Surtain II and Tyler Lockett (thigh) coming off a training camp injury, Smith-Njigba could find himself on the field and open often. All reports suggest that Smith-Njigba has had […]
DK Metcalf Likely To Draw Patrick Surtain Shadow In Week 1
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf has a tall task ahead of him against the Denver Broncos in Week 1. The Broncos have one of the NFL's best young cornerbacks, Patrick Surtain II. Metcalf will probably draw a shadow from Surtain who shadowed on 48.5% of his coverages in 2023. As such, Surtain may curb […]

Workhorse Fantasy Football Running Back Rankings for All 32 Teams - Expected Snap Counts Analysis
There have been increasingly fewer "workhorse" running backs in the NFL. More teams are shifting towards "committee" roles in their backfields for various reasons. This can frustrate fantasy football managers, as it reduces the concentration of fantasy points for RBs and makes it more difficult to obtain league-winning or even high-scoring RBs. The situation varies […]

Rarely do fantasy managers get excited about kickers, but the 2024 NFL season opens with a matchup of arguably the two best kickers in the NFL. Kansas City's Harrison Butker and Baltimore's Justin Tucker have been strong fantasy options for years, and they should remain top scorers among kickers in 2024. However, the position as […]
