There has been speculation that the Seattle Seahawks could consider trading star wide receiver DK Metcalf (knee) by Tuesday's NFL trade deadline, but ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that Seattle will hang onto him. Metcalf suffered an MCL sprain in his knee in Week 7 and has missed two straight contests as a result heading into the team's bye in Week 10. As of right now, the team is optimistic that Metcalf will return in Week 11 to face the division-rival San Francisco 49ers. A trade of Metcalf would have been great news for both receivers Jaxon Smith-Njigba, who blew up in Week 9 against the Rams, and veteran Tyler Lockett. However, it looks like the 26-year-old Metcalf will remain with the team and should be considered the WR1 in Seattle when he returns from his injury. In seven games before getting hurt, Metcalf had 35 catches, 568 yards (16.2 yards per catch) and three touchdowns.

Per Bob Condotta of the Seattle Times, Seattle Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald is "optimistic" that wide receiver DK Metcalf (knee) will return for the team's Week 11 matchup against the San Francisco 49ers. Metcalf has missed Seattle's prior two contests with a knee injury he picked up in the 34-14 Week 7 win over the Atlanta Falcons, and with the team on bye in Week 10, he could be ready to roll coming out of it. The 26-year-old was initially dubbed as week-to-week, and it appears that designation was accurate. It's worth noting that Macdonald stopped "short of saying he for sure will be" back, but with another week of rest on tap, Metcalf should have a good chance of doing so. If not, fellow wideouts Tyler, Lockett, and Jaxon Smith-Njigba will continue to operate as the Seahawks' top two pass catchers in the divisional tilt.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (knee) is in a good position to return in Week 11 following the team's bye, head coach Mike Macdonald said on Friday. Metcalf has already been ruled out for Week 9, giving him his second consecutive absence. However, Macdonald likes what he has seen from Metcalf's recovery and is encouraged that he'll be back on the field in roughly two weeks. In the meantime, Seattle's passing attack will run through its healthiest starters, Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Tyler Lockett.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (knee) was ruled out for Sunday's tilt against the Los Angeles Rams according to Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic. The star wideout has been sidelined since suffering a knee injury during Week 7. Metcalf was unable to practice at all this week. The 26-year-old will now set his sights on returning in Week 11 as the Seahawks are off during Week 10. As a result, fantasy managers should expect Tyler Lockett and Jaxon Smith-Njigba to lead the air attack against the Rams who have allowed the 11th-fewest PPR points to opposing wideouts this season.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (knee) will not practice on Wednesday according to Curtis Crabtree of FOX13 Seattle. However, Crabtree noted that the team remains optimistic he will practice tomorrow and play this weekend. Metcalf sustained this knee injury during their Week 7 tilt against the Atlanta Falcons. Metcalf was unable to play last weekend. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status throughout the week in case he faces a setback. If Metcalf can suit up this weekend, he should be viewed as a high-end WR2, facing the Los Angeles Rams who have allowed the 11th-fewest PPR points to opposing wideouts this season.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (knee) is optimistic he will be able to return in Week 9 to face the Los Angeles Rams according to Gregg Bell of the News Tribune. Metcalf was held out of action this past Sunday due to a knee injury he suffered in Week 7 and was unable to practice all week. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his progression this week as a return to practice could suggest he will be able to suit up this weekend. Metcalf has been very productive through the first half of the season as he has totaled 568 yards and three scores on 35 receptions. After scoring just 5.9 PPR points in Week 1, Metcalf has gone on to average 17.3 PPR points since Week 2. Fantasy managers should lock the 26-year-old into their lineup as a high-end WR2 if returns this weekend.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (knee) was originally listed as doubtful heading into the Week 8 matchup against the Buffalo Bills. He has now been deemed inactive which will move Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Tyler Lockett into the top two receiver spots. Jake Bobo will also likely see some snaps and targets while the Seahawks may be playing from behind against a solid Bills offense. Metcalf's status will be something to monitor next week as they have one more game right before their bye.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (knee) remains doubtful for Sunday's game versus the Buffalo Bills. The wideout was carted off the field in the Week 7 clash with the Atlanta Falcons. While head coach Mike Macdonald tried to downplay the severity of the injury, it appears it will be enough to keep him off the field. Metcalf will test things out during pregame warmups before a final determination is made. However, it will likely be Tyler Lockett and Jaxon Smith-Njigba as Geno Smith's top receivers, making them both viable options for fantasy managers.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (knee) is trending toward not suiting up for the team's Week 8 matchup. The hulking wideout was initially listed as week-to-week after injuring his knee in the second half of Seattle's 34-14 victory over the Atlanta Falcons. However, his status is now in doubt for Sunday's home outing against the Buffalo Bills. While it's still possible he is active for the game, fantasy managers will want to put a contingency plan in place, as it's unlikely he'd play a full complement of snaps regardless. If Metcalf can't suit up, fellow WRs Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Tyler Lockett should again see an increased role in the offense, while Jake Bobo will fill the void as the team's third wideout in three-wide-receiver sets.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (knee) will not practice on Wednesday or Thursday according to Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic. The 26-year-old suffered a knee injury during Sunday's game against the Atlanta Falcons. Metcalf was originally deemed week-to-week but could still suit up this weekend. Fantasy managers should pay close attention to Friday's injury report as Metcalf will likely carry an injury designation into the weekend. Metcalf as enjoyed a strong start to the campaign as he has scored at least 17.0 PPR points in four out of the seven games he has played in this season. If he is able to suit up this weekend he should be started in all formats as a high-end WR2. If he cannot play, Tyler Lockett and Jaxon Smith-Njigba should see an increase in targets.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (knee) suffered a Grade 1 MCL sprain in the Week 7 win over the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday and is now being considered "week-to-week," according to a source. Metcalf left Sunday's game in the fourth quarter and was seen trying to test his knee out on the sideline before eventually shutting it down and heading to the locker room with a trainer. The 26-year-old did some damage for his fantasy managers before leaving, though, catching four passes for 99 yards and a touchdown on seven targets. If Metcalf is unable to play in Week 8 against the Buffalo Bills, hopefully he'll be ready for a Week 9 tilt against the Los Angeles Rams. Seattle has a bye in Week 10. If Metcalf misses any time, both Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Tyler Lockett would immediately become much more attractive in starting fantasy lineups.

Dynasty | Seahawks receiver DK Metcalf had four catches for 99 yards and a touchdown before exiting with a knee injury in Seattle's road win against Atlanta. Dynasty Analysis: Metcalf had a solid afternoon, but dynasty managers are deeply concerned after he left the sidelines on a cart with what the team later said was a knee injury. For what it's worth, Head Coach Mike Macdonald said at his post-game news conference that it doesn't look too bad and that Metcalf just banged it with another player. We'll see, but any loss of time for Metcalf would open up things for Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Tyler Lockett. Stay tuned.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (knee) caught four of seven targets for 99 yards and a touchdown in Week 7 against the Atlanta Falcons. Metcalf was on his way to another monster game if he had not gone down with a knee injury in the second half. He was carted to the locker room which left a shred of doubt in the mind of fantasy managers. However, it sounds like the injury may not have been serious. Head coach Mike Macdonald stated after the game that "It doesn't look too bad". That is great news for fantasy managers who have been relying on Metcalf this season. He has been an excellent fantasy asset in 2024 and has been having arguably his best season since his sophomore season when he recorded 1,303 receiving yards and ten touchdowns. If Metcalf suffered a simple injury, then he should be deployed once again in Week 8. However, this situation is one to monitor as Metcalf will likely have a cap on his reps in practice throughout this upcoming week.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (knee) exited Sunday's matchup with the Atlanta Falcons. He was carted to the locker room, so things didn't look promising. However, head coach Mike Macdonald downplayed the condition, stating the wideout "banged his knee a little bit," adding, "it doesn't look too bad." Metcalf will likely need more tests to determine the severity of the injury. He might also miss some practices heading into the Week 8 clash with the Buffalo Bills. If Metcalf can't go for that one, it will likely mean more attention for Tyler Lockett and Jaxon Smith-Njigba.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (knee) exited during the second half of Sunday's game against the Atlanta Falcons and is officially questionable to return. He had been productive prior to his departure, catching four of seven targets for 99 yards and one touchdown. Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Tyler Lockett should operate as the Seahawks' top two receivers for the duration of Metcalf's absence.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf has finished as WR50 and WR51 in the last two weeks respectively. After going on a three-game heater, Metcalf has been pretty disappointing for fantasy managers of late. However, fantasy managers should not be worried. Metcalf has earned 18 targets over the last two weeks and has had multiple near-misses with touchdowns. Additionally, quarterback Geno Smith has been unlucky in the touchdown department. Smith leads the league in passing yards but has only thrown exactly one touchdown in every game this season. If the touchdowns start to flow for Smith, then there is no doubt that Metcalf will be a huge beneficiary. This game should result in a lot of points for both sides. If the Seahawks want to remain in this game, then there is no doubt that they will have to score touchdowns. Look for Smith to throw multiple touchdowns in this game and for Metcalf to catch at least one.

Dynasty | Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf had three catches for 48 yards in a loss against the 49ers on Thursday night. Dynasty Analysis: Metcalf had 11 targets, but he and Geno Smith are just not on the same page. After three straight 100-yard games, Metcalf now has just seven catches for 103 scoreless yards over his last two games. He did have a long touchdown called back because of a penalty, but things seem to be going sour for Seattle in a hurry as they've lost three straight and seem to be losing their way a bit. Metcalf will likely bounce back but this is notable in future weeks as lineup decisions are being made.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf had a poor game on Thursday night against the San Francisco 49ers. Metcalf finished the game with three receptions for 48 yards. Metcalf had been cruising this season and entered the game as the WR11 in fantasy. However, the 49ers more or less dominated the Seahawks and limited Metcalf's upside. Metcalf also had a couple of near-miss touchdowns in this game. Unfortunately, Metcalf's performance will set fantasy managers back heading into the weekend. However, there should be no panic or concern over his performance. Quarterback Geno Smith still threw for over 300 yards and Metcalf earned eleven targets. His catch rate was abysmal, but that kind of volume is sure to continue to translate to fantasy points. Metcalf will look to get back on track in Week 7 against the Atlanta Falcons.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (hand) will check in as a WR2 in Week 6 against the San Francisco 49ers. He is currently listed on the injury report with a hand injury but should be good to go in Week 6 as he has been nursing the injury for a couple of weeks now. Metcalf has been excellent in 2024 and currently sits as the WR11 in fantasy. The 49ers are the 10th-best defense against wide receivers in fantasy, but Metcalf's big play ability gives him major upside. The 49ers as a whole have not been the same juggernaut as they have been in recent years. They will visit Seattle with a 2-3 record. This game feels like it could be a close one. Metcalf is coming off two straight games with a lost fumble. Fantasy managers can only wonder if it has something to do with his injury. However, if he can clean up the turnovers, he should have a nice game. He has recorded 28 receptions for 421 yards in five games this season. He should be in your lineup once again in Week 6.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf fumbled again in Week 5. Metcalf's total statistical output was modest by his standards. After surpassing 100 receiving yards in three straight games, Metcalf finished with four catches for 55 yards and no touchdowns. The Seahawks offense as a whole was held in check by a scrappy Giants defense. If it weren't for the fumble, Metcalf would have had a semi-productive outing. However, he ended up falling well short of his WR1 expectations. Fantasy managers should be unconcerned with Metcalf's performance. While it is disappointing that he has fumbled in two straight games, it is unlikely to be a regular occurrence. Metcalf will look to bounce back in Week 6 in a huge divisional game against the San Francisco 49ers.
