Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett caught no passes on one target in Week 14 against the Arizona Cardinals. Lockett has been completely phased out of the Seahawks' offense. He dropped a would-be touchdown in the end zone on his only target. Otherwise, quarterback Geno Smith was focused entirely on wide receivers DK Metcalf and Jaxon Smith-Njigba and running back Zach Charbonnet. Lockett is a completely forgotten man in the Seahawks' offense. He is a great locker-room presence and a savvy veteran on the field. However, he is not integral to the game plan any longer. At this point, Lockett should not be rostered in fantasy. He will only find relevance should Metcalf or Smith-Njigba go down due to injury.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett does not deserve a spot in your lineup and possibly even on your roster in Week 14. The Seahawks will travel to Arizona to face the Cardinals. Lockett has had some huge games in Arizona in the past, but the No. 2 wide receiver role in Seattle's offense has shifted to Jaxon Smith-Njigba. Lockett has not earned more than four targets since Week 7, and he has not exceeded three receptions during that same span. With fellow wide receiver DK Metcalf (shoulder) off the injury report, this will be the Metcalf and Smith-Njigba show once again. Lockett will be a chain mover on a couple of important plays in this game. However, he will be more important to the Seahawks' success than that of your fantasy team.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett only earned three targets in Seattle's Week 13 win over the New York Jets. He was a chain mover for the Seahawks, but he is no longer integral to the game plan. Lockett plays a specific role as a savvy veteran who can make big catches for this team. However, his days as anything close to a WR2 are officially long gone. At this point, Lockett is not worth a roster spot in fantasy. No one should roster a player who only earns three targets a game and does not score touchdowns. The Seahawks have shifted hard to consolidating targets between wide receivers DK Metcalf and Jaxon Smith-Njigba. The shift is producing results as both players are having solid seasons. Lockett has been a big name in fantasy for a long time, but it is time to let name value go and move on.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (knee) does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's match against the New York Jets. The veteran wideout was unable to practice on Wednesday and Thursday but was able to turn in a full session on Friday. The 32-year-old has taken a step back this season, as he has only averaged 45.0 yards per game and is on pace to have one of the lowest yardage totals of his career. Over the past two weeks, he has tallied just 49 combined yards and caught just two passes in each game. Facing a tough Jets secondary that has allowed the fewest PPR points, fantasy managers should only view Lockett as a desperation flex play in PPR formats.
Nov 29, 2024 4:51 PM EST
Seattle Seahawks wide receivers DK Metcalf (shoulder) and Tyler Lockett (knee) were non-participants for the second straight day, according to Rich Cimini. Fantasy managers should pay close attention to their status during Friday's practice session as they both could be in danger of missing Sunday's game if they cannot log any practice session. Metcalf returned in Week 11 after a two-game absence due to a knee injury, while Lockett has yet to miss any time this season. Metcalf typically sees the majority of targets every week in the Seattle passing attack. Lockett has seen only three targets in each of the past two games and has moved down to the clear No.3 role in the offense. If either wideout is in danger of missing Sunday's game, Jaxon Smith-Njigba would be in store for an increase in opportunities.
Nov 28, 2024 5:36 PM EST
Seattle Seahawks wide receivers DK Metcalf (shoulder) and Tyler Lockett (knee) were both listed as DNPs at Wednesday's practice. The Seahawks still have two days of practice left this week, but fantasy managers should keep their eyes open for Metcalf's and Lockett's status over the next couple of days as the Week 13 contest against the New York Jets on Sunday approaches. Metcalf missed two game with an MCL sprain recently but returned the last two weeks to catch 11 of 14 targets for 129 yards and no touchdowns. Second-year wideout Jaxon Smith-Njigba, who is having a breakout season, would be the biggest beneficiary in Seattle's offense if one or both of Metcalf and/or Lockett are inactive this weekend. Metcalf is a must-start in fantasy anytime he's healthy, while Lockett has become the clear No. 3 in Seattle in 2024 and is a boom/bust WR4/flex option these days.
Nov 27, 2024 7:52 PM EST
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett is now completely off the fantasy radar. He has not earned more than four targets since Week 7, and he has now caught just two passes in two consecutive games. Quarterback Geno Smith's attention seems to have shifted from Lockett to fellow wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba who has emerged in recent weeks. The Seahawks have also toned down their passing volume which has shrunk the amount of targets available for each of the skill position players on the team. It is encouraging that Lockett was the target on an end zone interception for Smith. However, had the two connected, it still would not signal brighter days ahead for Lockett. Lockett has seemingly aged out of fantasy relevance. If anything were to happen to Smith-Njigba or DK Metcalf, Lockett would be a viable option. With those two players healthy, Lockett belongs on waivers at this point.
Nov 24, 2024 8:15 PM EST
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett has been a low-end flex option throughout most of the season. He checks in as such in Week 12 against the Arizona Cardinals, but it comes with a lot of risk. Lockett's usage out of the Seahawks' Week 10 bye was puzzling and could be prescriptive for the rest of the season. Lockett was clearly operating as the Seahawks' No. 3 wide receiver in Week 11 against the San Francisco 49ers. In his last three games played, Lockett has only averaged 3.3 targets per game after averaging 6.6 targets per game over his first seven games. The emergence of wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba as a preferred target for quarterback Geno Smith is eating significantly into Lockett's volume. With the Seahawks switching to a less pass-heavy attack after the bye week, there may not be enough targets to go around for the Seahawks' top three wide receivers. With six teams on a bye this week, Lockett is still a risky flex play.
Nov 22, 2024 7:14 PM EST
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett caught just two of three targets for 19 yards in a Week 11 win over the San Francisco 49ers. The Seahawks' passing offense ran almost solely through wide receivers Jaxon Smith-Njigba and DK Metcalf (knee). While Lockett has consistently operated as the third target this season, that usually still resulted in solid volume. With quarterback Geno Smith only throwing the ball 32 times in this game, Lockett was the odd-man out as Metcalf and Smith-Njigba combined for 20 targets. Lockett now has four games this season with less than 9.6 PPR fantasy points. It is discouraging to see that when the Seahawks' passing volume is down, Lockett is likely to miss out on the fantasy fun in this wide receiver core. With the Seahawks looking much sharper coming out of their bye, they were able to hold San Francisco's offense in check. As such, the Seahawks' offense did not need to generate much output to win the game. This will be an interesting situation to monitor if the Seahawks have made significant offensive and defensive changes coming out of their bye. If they are able to play better defense moving forward, then Lockett could experience more games like this.
Nov 17, 2024 9:03 PM EST
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett should be a flex option in Week 11 when the Seahawks visit the San Francisco 49ers. Lockett has consistently delivered close to, or more than, double-digit fantasy points in 2024 in PPR formats. That trend should continue in Week 11 in a game in which the Seahawks project to need to throw to keep up with an excellent 49ers offense. Lockett has been especially valuable when he scores a touchdown this season. The days of consistent WR2 production from Lockett are gone, but he continues to be a very important member of this offense as a chain-mover. Even with DK Metcalf (knee) set to return in Week 11, Lockett should not see a dip in target volume. In fact, Lockett's volume was lower in the two games that Metcalf missed than it had been all season. With several bye weeks this week, Lockett is a safe floor option.
Nov 15, 2024 4:39 PM EST
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett scored for the second time in 2024 in Week 9 against the Los Angeles Rams. As expected, Lockett was a safety valve for quarterback Geno Smith with DK Metcalf (knee) out of the lineup. While Smith struggled with interceptions all game long, Lockett was still able to deliver solid fantasy value. Lockett has rarely sunk your week in any given week in 2024. That should continue to be the trend once Metcalf returns and there is less attention on Lockett and fellow wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba. The Seahawks head into a bye in Week 10 and need to sort things out on offense. Hopefully the reset helps all the skill players in this offense moving forward.
Nov 3, 2024 8:24 PM EST
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (oblique) will look to get back into the double-digit fantasy point range in Week 9. Lockett battled an oblique injury this week, but it appears to be minor as he was a full participant in practice on Thursday and Friday. The Seahawks will host the Los Angeles Rams in a huge intra-divisional matchup. The whole Seahawks offense stalled against a solid Buffalo Bills defense without DK Metcalf (knee) in Week 8. They will draw a much easier matchup against the Rams this week. Additionally, the Seahawks made several mental errors that caused the game to get out of hand. They moved the ball just fine in the first half of Week 8. If they can clean up those errors, they should score points without issue in Week 9. The offense certainly runs through Metcalf, so his absence again in Week 9 will be felt. However, Lockett is going to be in a good position to push for 7 to 10 targets and deliver flex value for your fantasy team.
Nov 1, 2024 5:27 PM EST
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (oblique) was a limited participant in practice on Wednesday. The veteran joins DK Metcalf (knee) and Laviska Shenault Jr. (knee) as Seattle's wide receivers on the initial Week 9 injury report. Given that Lockett was able to get on the field in some capacity, it seems like he's trending toward playing on Sunday versus the Los Angeles Rams. Assuming he suits up, he'll rank as a low-end fantasy WR3.
Oct 31, 2024 12:28 AM EST
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett only caught one pass on three targets for nine yards in Seattle's Week 8 loss to the Buffalo Bills. The Seahawks had trouble getting anything going on offense and Lockett was the odd man out. He was in position for a massive workload with top wide receiver DK Metcalf (knee) out. However, the Bills had other plans and severely limited the upside of all of Seattle's skill players. Still, Lockett's output was puzzling. He had earned at least six targets in every game but one this season. He should have at least delivered flex value in this game. Look for Lockett to bounce back in Week 9 when the Seahawks host the Los Angeles Rams. If Metcalf misses again, then Lockett should be able to meet his usual target number.
Oct 27, 2024 8:28 PM EST
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett is in a great position to succeed in Week 8 against the Buffalo Bills. With top wide receiver DK Metcalf (knee) doubtful in this game, Lockett projects to see serious volume alongside fellow wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba. Lockett has been a steady contributor in 2024. He has been able to deliver consistent flex value with solid volume given how much the Seahawks are throwing the ball. He has a chance to turn back the clock in Week 8 with Metcalf likely out. Geno Smith trusts Lockett and should throw to him over and over in Week 8. Lockett should push for double-digit targets, and he has a good chance of finding the end zone. If you have injuries at the wide receiver position this week, then Lockett is your guy.
Oct 25, 2024 8:09 PM EST
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett caught four of six targets for 45 yards in a Week 7 against the Atlanta Falcons. Lockett continues to see solid target volume and has been relatively efficient with his targets. His yardage totals continue to remain low, but he has been a trusted safety valve for quarterback Geno Smith all season. The Seahawks' passing volume in Week 7 was lower than it had been in recent weeks. Smith only threw 28 passes in the game. The defense did a good job propelling the Seahawks to victory and the offense did not have to do a lot in the passing game in the second half. As such, Lockett should continue to be a solid fantasy asset moving forward when the Seahawks are not blowing teams out. Fantasy managers should not expect much in the way of a ceiling from Lockett, however, he has demonstrated he has a solid floor in a potent Seahawks offense in 2024.
Oct 20, 2024 8:19 PM EST
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (knee) continues to be a very consistent fantasy asset. Lockett has had a low ceiling this season (currently WR30), but he is a good bet to score double-digit fantasy points in any given week. Lockett is the definition of a bye-week fill-in. He should be on rosters everywhere and should have no problem delivering flex value. Lockett did manage to score his first touchdown of the season in Week 6 against the San Francisco 49ers. If he can continue to score touchdowns at a higher rate, then he could sneak into the WR3 range. Lockett did not practice on Thursday with a knee injury but he was a full participant on Friday and it appears that he will have no limitations in Week 7.
Oct 18, 2024 6:10 PM EST
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (knee) was added to the team's Week 7 injury report on Thursday after he missed practice with a knee injury. Mid-week additions to the injury report are usually never a good thing, so Lockett's status for the Week 7 contest against the Atlanta Falcons this Sunday is firmly up in the air. We'll have a better idea of how serious the 32-year-old's knee injury is based on his status on the final injury report on Friday. If Lockett is unavailable this weekend, second-year wideout Jaxon Smith-Njigba will basically become a must-start for fantasy managers in a game that could be a shootout in Atlanta. The emergence of Smith-Njigba has made Lockett more of a volatile, touchdown-dependent WR4/flex in fantasy on a weekly basis. Through six weeks in 2024, Lockett is the WR31 in half-PPR scoring.
Oct 17, 2024 8:35 PM EST
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett earned eight targets on Thursday night against the San Francisco 49ers. Lockett turned those targets into four catches for 65 yards and his first touchdown of the season. Lockett had been solid for fantasy all season and it was great to see him score his first touchdown to deliver WR2 value this week. He finished tied for third on the team in targets but paced the pass catchers in receiving yards. Lockett continues to be a safety valve for quarterback Geno Smith. He has now racked up 40 targets in six games this season. His 339 receiving yards through six games puts him on pace for 960 on the season. If he can continue to receive solid volume and the touchdowns increase, Lockett could creep up the fantasy radar even farther.
Oct 11, 2024 11:18 AM EST
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett is a great bye week fill-in in Week 6. He has had a great fantasy floor in 2024, scoring at least 9.6 fantasy points in four of five games. He has also earned at least six targets in four of five games. This game should be a close one but there is no doubt that the Seahawks will need to put the ball in the air if they want to best the division-rival 49ers. With players such as Tyreek Hill, Aaron Jones, and Kyren Williams on bye, you could do a lot worse than Lockett in your flex position. Lockett has also been mysteriously lacking touchdowns this season. If that trend starts to turn around, then Lockett could become an every-week starter in fantasy. He deserves to have a place in lineups in Week 6.
