Seattle Seahawks news, rumors and injuriesSeahawks | Chris Carson runs with first team Friday Sat, 19 Aug 2017 08:51:58 -0700 Seattle Seahawks RB Chris Carson saw nine snaps with the first-team offense against the Minnesota Vikings on Friday, Aug. 18, as opposed to Eddie Lacy's 13. Carson ran six times for 27 yards and contributed a 17-yard reception on his only target. Fantasy Tip: Carson likely saw more first-team work than expected because of injuries to Thomas Rawls and C.J. Prosise, but the undrafted free-agent has done nothing but impress since the start of camp. Given how sluggish Lacy looked again, there is a case to be made that Carson is now threatening the former Green Bay Packer's spot on the roster instead of Alex Collins'. Owners should monitor Carson in next week's dress rehearsal against the Kansas City Chiefs. Comment () | Share: Seahawks | Alex Collins makes his case for roster spot Sat, 19 Aug 2017 08:35:29 -0700 Seattle Seahawks RB Alex Collins led all rushers with 10 carries and 58 yards while adding four catches for 35 more yards in Week 2 of the preseason against the Minnesota Vikings on Friday, Aug. 18. He also lost a fumble. Fantasy Tip: Collins is in a fight with undrafted rookie free agent Chris Carson for the No. 4 job in Seattle behind three injury-prone rushers in Thomas Rawls, Eddie Lacy and C.J. Prosise, so there is a potential avenue to fantasy relevancy here. Carson is getting some with the first team in camp, so Collins will need another effort like this next week to help his cause. Comment () | Share: Seahawks | Doug Baldwin efficient Friday Sat, 19 Aug 2017 08:23:25 -0700 Seattle Seahawks WR Doug Baldwin, all four of his targets for 69 yards versus the Minnesota Vikings on Friday, Aug. 18. Fantasy Tip: Baldwin looked every bit like the low-end WR1 he is being drafted as this summer, routinely creating separation and piling up yards after the catch. He's not going to bring the monster upside of the elite group of receivers such as Antonio Brown, Odell Beckham Jr. and Julio Jones, but a season of at least 80 catches, 1,000 yards and seven touchdowns is well within reason for Baldwin in 2017. Comment () | Share: Seahawks | Jimmy Graham dealing with back spasms Sat, 19 Aug 2017 06:55:34 -0700 Seattle Seahawks TE Jimmy Graham (back, knee) sat out the preseason game against the Minnesota Vikings Friday, Aug. 18, due to back spasms, according to head coach Pete Carroll. Fantasy Tip: The 30-year-old Graham had 65 receptions for 923 yards and six touchdowns last season and should be viewed as an elite TE1 in all fantasy formats. Comment () | Share: Seahawks | C.J. Prosise bothered by minor groin injury Sat, 19 Aug 2017 06:52:13 -0700 Seattle Seahawks RB C.J. Prosise (groin) was held out of the preseason game against the Minnesota Vikings Friday, Aug. 18, due to a minor groin issue, according to head coach Pete Carroll. Fantasy Tip: Although Prosise will see the bulk of his playing time in third-down situations, he has the potential to be a decent flex option and is worthy of consideration as a RB4 in PPR fantasy leagues. Comment () | Share: Seahawks | Amara Darboh may have suffered concussion Sat, 19 Aug 2017 06:42:10 -0700 Seattle Seahawks WR Amara Darboh (head) did not return to the preseason game against the Minnesota Vikings Friday, Aug. 18, after sustaining a possible concussion in the first half. Comment () | Share: Seahawks | Marcus Lucas injures ankle Sat, 19 Aug 2017 06:37:44 -0700 Seattle Seahawks TE Marcus Lucas (ankle) suffered an ankle injury during the second quarter of the preseason game against the Minnesota Vikings Friday, Aug. 18, and did not return. Comment () | Share: Seahawks | George Fant has torn ACL Sat, 19 Aug 2017 04:41:49 -0700 Seattle Seahawks OT George Fant (knee) suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament Friday, Aug. 18, against the Minnesota Vikings. He is likely out for the season. Comment () | Share: Seahawks | Russell Wilson strong in Week 2 Fri, 18 Aug 2017 22:21:21 -0700 Seattle Seahawks QB Russell Wilson was 13-of-18 for 206 yards and a pair of touchdowns Friday, Aug. 18, in a 20-13 win over the Minnesota Vikings. Fantasy Tip: Seattle didn't dip heavily into its passing game as evidenced by Wilson's 18 throws, but he looked solid midway through the preseason. Wilson grades out now as a mid-range QB1 on a strong Seahawks squad. Comment () | Share: Seahawks | George Fant injured Friday Fri, 18 Aug 2017 19:54:15 -0700 Seattle Seahawks OT George Fant (leg) had his right leg put into an air cast and was carted off the field Friday, Aug. 18, after a getting rolled up by a teammate while he was engaged in a block.

Comment () | Share: Seahawks | Extension official for Justin Britt Thu, 17 Aug 2017 12:25:55 -0700 Updating a previous report, Seattle Seahawks C Justin Britt officially agreed to a three-year, $27 million extension Thursday, Aug. 17, according to a source. He will earn $13.25 million through 2018. Comment () | Share: Seahawks | Thomas Rawls to miss preseason game Thu, 17 Aug 2017 12:20:21 -0700 Seattle Seahawks RB Thomas Rawls (ankle) will be sidelined for Week 2 of the preseason with a minor ankle ailment. RB Eddie Lacy will start in his place. Fantasy Tip: Rawls is still the better value in Seattle's backfield as long as he remains healthy enough to play. Lacy will assuredly limit Rawls' ceiling, making neither player worth more than an RB3 investment. Comment () | Share: Seahawks | Justin Britt close to extension Thu, 17 Aug 2017 10:15:59 -0700 Seattle Seahawks C Justin Britt is nearing a three-year extension that would earn him more than $9 million per year, according to a source.
