Two catches in Week 17
Lockett recorded two receptions on three targets for nine yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-10 loss to the Giants.
Analysis: Despite the absence of Jack Bech (back) and Brock Bowers (knee), Lockett continued to fade in the Raiders' offense. He has four or fewer targets in five consecutive contests and has surpassed 11 yards only once in that span. However, we was able to come away with a non-disastrous fantasy line Sunday thanks to a four-yard touchdown catch late in the third quarter. That was his first TD of 2025 and his first score since Week 9 of last season.

Logs full practice Wednesday
Lockett (wrist) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.
Analysis: Lockett was able to return from a wrist injury to finish with one catch (on two targets) for six yards during the Raiders' Week 16 loss to the Texans. His full practice puts him past the injury and on track to be available for Sunday's home game against the Giants. Since joining the Raiders in late October, Lockett has caught 19 passes (on 26 targets) for 207 yards, and the veteran wide receiver could take on a larger role in the offense after Brock Bowers (knee) was placed on injured reserve.

Returns to full practice
Lockett (knee) practiced fully Thursday.
Analysis: After being deemed a limited participant in practice Wednesday, Lockett worked fully a day later, which paves the way for the wideout to be available Sunday against the Texans. Meanwhile, QB Geno Smith -- who was inactive for the Raiders' 31-0 loss to the Eagles in Week 15 -- is practicing fully this week and is poised to return to action this weekend. In that context, Lockett maintains modest fantasy value in PPR formats, with the 33-year-old having recorded an 18-201-0 line on 24 targets in…read more

Limited practice Wednesday
Lockett (knee) was limited at practice Wednesday.
Analysis: Lockett sustained a wrist injury in Sunday's 31-0 loss to the Eagles, but Wednesday's injury report instead lists the wideout as dealing with a knee issue. In any case, Lockett has two more opportunities to practice fully before the Raiders assign injury designations ahead of this weekend's game against the Texans. Assuming he's available, Lockett's only a lineup option in deeper fantasy formats, with the Raiders having dropped eight straight games and set to face a stingy Houston defense in…read more

Injured in first half Sunday
Lockett is questionable to return to Sunday's game versus the Eagles with a wrist injury.
Analysis: The 33-year-old caught two of four targets for 10 yards before sustaining this injury, which has left him questionable to return coming out of halftime. In his absence, Dont'e Thornton will likely take on a bigger role behind fellow wideouts Tre Tucker and Jack Bech while tight end Brock Bowers still serves as Las Vegas' No. 1 target. Over six games with the Raiders coming into Sunday's action, Lockett recorded 16 catches (on 20 targets) for 191 yards.

Three catches in loss
Lockett caught three of four targets for 41 yards in Sunday's 24-17 loss to the Broncos.
Analysis: Lockett was able to reel in multiple passes for the fourth time in the last five games, finishing third on the team in receptions behind Jack Bech (six) and Brock Bowers (four) against Denver. The wide receiver has yet to find the end zone over 12 contests with the Titans and Raiders this season, something he'll look to change in Week 14 against the Eagles.

Catches lone target in loss
Lockett caught his only target for 11 yards in Sunday's 31-14 loss to the Chargers.
Analysis: Lockett had 12 catches for 139 yards across the preceding three games but regressed in Sunday's lopsided loss, which was his fifth game as a member of the Raiders. Prior to his three-game resurgence, the 33-year-old wide receiver had exceeded 28 receiving yards only once in his preceding 16 regular-season appearances. Lockett's ceiling will remain low in Week 14 against Denver's stout secondary.

Ready for Week 13
Lockett (ankle/quadriceps) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game at the Chargers.
Analysis: Lockett opened Week 13 prep as a full practice participant due to an ankle injury. A quad issue was added to the injury report Thursday, and while he finished the week with back-to-back limited sessions, he's in the clear ahead of the weekend. In four contests with the Raiders so far, Lockett has been a regular in the passing attack, gathering in 12 of 15 targets for 139 yards and no touchdowns.

Lockett (ankle/quad) was limited at practice Thursday.
Analysis: Lockett worked fully Wednesday, so the wideout's downgrade in participation Thursday makes his status worth monitoring ahead of Sunday's game against the Chargers. With 12 catches (on 14 targets) for 139 yards over his last three games, Lockett has of late emerged on the fantasy radar in deeper formats.

Leads team with 62 yards
Lockett had four receptions on five targets for 62 yards in Sunday's 24-10 loss to the Browns.
Analysis: Lockett finished the loss as the Raiders' leading receiver despite finishing fourth in team targets Sunday. The veteran wideout continues to show good chemistry with former and current teammate Geno Smith, averaging 4.3 receptions and 46.3 yards in three games filling in as a starter for Jakobi Meyers after the latter was dealt to Jacksonville at the trade deadline. Lockett is still barely scratching the surface as a deep-league option for next Sunday's tilt against the Chargers.

Lockett (knee) had three receptions on as many targets for 33 yards in Monday's 33-16 loss to the Cowboys.
Analysis: Lockett picked up a minor knee injury in last week's loss to the Broncos, but he was able to practice in a limited fashion and suit up for Monday Night Football. The veteran wideout finished third on the team in receiving yardage and fourth in targets while starting alongside Tre Tucker. In the two games since Jakobi Meyers was traded to the Jaguars, Lockett is averaging 4.0 receptions and 38.5 yards, numbers that could draw interest from those in deeper PPR formats.

Analysis: A knee injury limited Lockett's practice participation Thursday, but his ability to practice fully Friday indicates that he's on track to play against the Cowboys on Monday. The veteran wideout is coming off his best outing of the season, when he caught five passes (on six targets) for 44 yards against the Broncos in Week 10.

Lockett (knee) was limited at practice Thursday.
Analysis: In last Thursday's 10-7 loss to the Broncos, Lockett recorded a 57 percent snap share en route to catching five of his six targets for a team-high 44 yards. Following a limited listing in the Raiders' first practice ahead of Monday night's game against the Cowboys, the wideout's status is worth monitoring, with Lockett now having two more chances to upgrade to full practice participation ahead of Week 11 action.

Lockett led the Raiders in receptions, receiving yards and targets on the night with figures that were also season highs.

Targeted once in Raiders debut
Lockett was unable to haul in his lone target in Sunday's 30-29 overtime loss to the Jaguars.
Analysis: Making his Raiders debut, Lockett served as Geno Smith's WR3 behind Jakobi Meyers and Tre Tucker, but the 33-year-old receiver logged only 19 offensive snaps while tight ends Brock Bowers and Michael Mayer were heavily featured in two-TE sets. Nonetheless, Lockett immediately played ahead of rookie Jack Bech, and Dont'e Thornton was ruled inactive as a healthy scratch before the contest.

Time in Tennessee over
The Titans granted Lockett his release Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: In seven games with the Titans, Lockett caught just 10 of his 21 targets for 70 yards. With the 33-year-old receiver not fitting the rebuilding 1-6 Titans' timeline, he'll be given the chance to catch on elsewhere for the remainder of the season. Even if Lockett lands with a playoff-contending team with stronger quarterback play, he'll likely struggle to find enough snaps to make a meaningful fantasy impact.

Lockett recorded one reception on three targets for no gain in Sunday's 20-10 loss to the Raiders.
Analysis: Lockett's snap rate remained depressed for the second straight game, as he was on the field for only 32 percent of offensive snaps. He was still targeted three times, though his lone catch went for no gain. Lockett has posted at least 10 receiving yards in a game only once this season.

Lockett recorded one reception on four targets for six yards in Sunday's 22-21 win over Arizona.

His biggest impact came late in the fourth quarter when he recovered a fumble in the end zone that began as an interception for Arizona.

Lockett recorded no receptions on four targets on Sunday's 26-0 loss to the Texans.
Analysis: There were some positives to take away from the performance, as Lockett logged a season-high 74 percent of offensive snaps and drew four targets for the second consecutive game. However, he was unable to connect with Cam Ward, who has struggled in his first four starts as a pro. Like nearly every Titans' pass catcher, Lockett is an unreliable fantasy option.

Lockett recorded four receptions (on four targets) for 37 yards in Sunday's 41-20 loss to the Colts.
Analysis: Lockett has maintained a consistent snap rate across three games in Tennessee, playing nearly exactly half of the snaps in every contest. His performance in Sunday's loss was his best of the year, highlighted by a long gain of 16 yards. Elic Ayomanor, Calvin Ridley and Chig Okonkwo are likely to remain prioritized ahead of Lockett in the offense, leaving him with limited upside on a weekly basis.

Lockett recorded two receptions on three targets for nine yards in Sunday's 33-19 loss to the Rams.
Analysis: Lockett was on the field for only 48 percent of offensive snaps against the Rams, though he did manage to record his first reception as a Titan. He made a five-yard catch on the opening play of the game, with his next catch not coming until early in the third quarter. Lockett quickly has been surpassed by Elic Ayomanor in priority for targets and is likely to continue to post very limited stat lines.

Lockett didn't record a reception (on one target) in Sunday's 20-12 loss to the Broncos.
Analysis: Lockett was on the field for 33 offensive snaps (58 percent), less than rookie Elic Ayomanor. Lockett was also an afterthought in the offense, with his only target coming on the fourth play of the game. The Titans' passing offense should have more success in future weeks, but Lockett doesn't look to be a priority target.

Brief look to end preseason
Lockett did not record a catch on one target in Friday's 23-13 preseason win over the Vikings.
Analysis: Lockett technically didn't start the game because the Titans opened with two receivers, but he was targeted by Cameron Ward on the second play of the contest. That was Lockett's only appearance in the box score, and he ends the preseason with only one catch. Lockett looks to be Tennessee's primary slot receiver heading into a Week 1 matchup against the Broncos.

One grab in preseason start
Lockett recorded one catch on one target for seven yards in Saturday's 29-7 preseason loss to the Buccaneers.
Analysis: Lockett was on the field for two offensive possessions, both of which were led by Cameron Ward. He served as a short-area target, as he also had a four-yard reception that was wiped away by penalty. The more important takeaway is that Lockett appears to have a place in the Titans' starting unit and could be targeted frequently in the quick passing game as Ward gets up to speed in the NFL.

Finds new home in Tennessee
Lockett signed a one-year, $4 million contract with the Titans on Wednesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Lockett spent the first 10 seasons of his career in Seattle but was cut ahead of the new league year in a salary cap move. The 32-year-old wideout is coming off of a down 2024 campaign that saw him post a 49-600-2 receiving line as the third option in the Seahawks' passing game. In Tennessee, Lockett figures to fill the old Tyler Boyd role from last season, sliding in as a veteran slot man on the tail end of his career. Look for the Titans to add more pass-catching help in this week's NFL Draft.

The Seahawks released Lockett on Wednesday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Lockett, one of the most productive wideouts in franchise history would have carried a substantial cap hit of $17 million had he remained with the team for the 2025 season, so the writing had been on the wall for Seattle to part ways with him this offseason. Though he played in all 17 of Seattle's games in 2024, Lockett took a big step back statistically and finished with a 49-600-2 receiving line on 72 targets, operating as the clear No. 3 wideout behind Jaxon Smith-Njigba and DK Metcalf.…read more

Uncertain standing for 2025
Lockett is unlikely to remain with the Seahawks without taking a pay cut, ESPN's Dan Graziano reports.
Analysis: Lockett is one of the team's veteran leaders and ranks second in franchise history with 8,594 receiving yards, but his receiving volume fell off a cliff in 2024 -- 4.4 targets per game in an offense that provided 8.1 for Jaxon Smith-Njigba and 7.2 for DK Metcalf. The 32-year-old is scheduled for $17 million in 2025 compensation, including a non-guaranteed $5.3 million roster bonus due March 16.

Analysis: The veteran wideout finished the 2024 campaign with 49 catches for 600 yards two touchdowns, his lowest totals in each category since 2017. The emergence of second-year wideout Jaxon Smith-Njiba resulted in Lockett moving into a tertiary role in the passing game, with Smith-Njiba and DK Metcalf being the clear top targets for quarterback Geno Smith.

Analysis: Geno Smith threw for a season-low 160 yards in the tight win while Lockett failed to produce more than 22 receiving yards for the seventh straight game. DK Metcalf and Jaxon Smith-Njigba are the focal points of this passing offense, so Lockett's upside will remain limited even in a favorable Week 18 matchup against the Rams.

Lockett caught both of his targets for 19 yards in Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Vikings.
Analysis: Though Geno Smith attempted 43 passes on the day, Lockett didn't attract much of the quarterback's attention, as Jaxon Smith-Njigba (12) and DK Metcalf (seven) dominated the targets. With Smith-Njigba becoming a much bigger part of the offense in recent weeks, the 32-year-old Lockett has been mostly an afterthought in Seattle's aerial attack. Since the Seahawks' Week 10 bye, the veteran has recorded just 96 receiving yards over six games.

Analysis: Lockett continues to be outplayed by a significant margin by both Jaxon Smith-Njigba and DK Metcalf, who combined for 140 receiving yards against the Jets. The 32-year-old Lockett seems to have lost a step, with 20 or fewer receiving yards in four of his last five games.

The veteran receiver has posted a 34-456-2 receiving line through eight games as Seattle enters its bye week.

Tending to new health concern
Lockett was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice due to an oblique injury, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Lockett spent the first month of the season as a regular on Seattle practice reports due to a lingering thigh issue and then tended to a knee injury during Week 7 prep, so the current health concern is a new one.

Paces pass catchers in loss
Lockett secured four of eight targets for 65 yards and a touchdown in the Seahawks' 36-24 loss to the 49ers on Thursday night.
Analysis: Lockett's receiving yardage total paced the Seahawks on the night, and he was also the only Seattle pass catcher to find the end zone. The veteran receiver's impressive nine-yard grab in the back of the end zone late in the fourth quarter gave the Seahawks brief hope by narrowing their deficit to five points and also served as Lockett's first touchdown of the campaign. The 10th-year pro heads into a Week 7 road matchup against the Falcons with a four-game streak of at least four receptions and…read more

Leads team with 75 yards
Lockett caught four of six targets for 75 yards in Sunday's 29-20 loss to the Giants.
Analysis: Lockett wound up leading the Seahawks in receiving despite finishing fourth in targets. The veteran wideout entered the contest averaging 4.8 receptions and 49.8 receiving yards before upping those marks Sunday. Lockett has still yet to score a touchdown through five games this season, but he remains a reliable PPR option heading into Thursday's tilt against San Francisco.

Good to go
Lockett (thigh) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Giants, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Analysis: Lockett has been listed on the injury report for four out of five games so far, but he hasn't had a game designation since Week 1 and has played more than half of the available snaps in each game. While Jaxon Smith-Njigba has been getting a few more routes and targets than Lockett on average, Lockett's 80 percent route share and 17 percent target share for the season are respectable numbers, keeping him in play as a lineup option for deep leagues if nothing else.

Stays limited Thursday
Lockett (thigh) practiced in a limited capacity Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Lockett is enduring practice limitations due to a thigh injury for a fourth week out of a possible five to kick off the campaign. So far, the issue hasn't stopped him from being available on game days, resulting in a cumulative 18-199-0 line on 26 targets in four contests. Friday's injury report ultimately may clear Lockett ahead of Sunday's matchup with the Giants.

The thigh injury now is back and hindering his amount of on-field work as the Seahawks gear up to face the Giants on Sunday. Ultimately, Friday's practice report will reveal whether or not Lockett enters the weekend with a designation for that contest.

Earns season-high target count
Lockett posted five catches (on nine targets) for 61 yards during Monday's 42-29 loss at Detroit.
Analysis: In a game in which QB Geno Smith put up a career-high 56 pass attempts for 395 yards, no Seahawks pass catcher had more than Jaxon Smith-Njigba's eight receptions, and DK Metcalf led the team with 104 receiving yards. Lockett himself unsurprisingly saw a season-best target count, but he has yet to score a touchdown on the campaign, and his weekly output so far hasn't been something to write home about. Lockett will attempt to make some inroads on Metcalf and Smith-Njigba this coming Sunday…read more

Leads team with eight targets
Lockett (thigh) garnered eight targets in Sunday's 24-7 win that resulted in five receptions for 46 yards against the Dolphins.
Analysis: Lockett was cleared of a minor thigh injury prior to Sunday's win, and he led the team in targets with a solid fantasy showing for PPR managers. Seattle's veteran wideout has yet to score a touchdown through three games, but he has recorded 13 receptions for 138 yards. Lockett remains a reliable fantasy option heading into next Monday's tilt against the Lions.

Analysis: It's the same injury Lockett played through the last two weeks, although his fantasy value took a hit last Sunday at New England when he drew just two targets on 57 snaps in a game that saw both DK Metcalf and Jaxon Smith-Njigba catch double-digit passes. Lockett did lead the team in targets (seven) and receiving yards (77) in a Week 1 win over the Broncos, but the overall picture through two games suggests he's falling behind Smith-Njigba (both in terms of snaps and targets) and may only be…read more

Lockett (thigh) practiced in a limited fashion Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: The Seahawks have kept Lockett's practice reps in check so far this season, but the limitations haven't impacted his ability to suit up on game day. Even if he enters the weekend with a questionable designation for Sunday's contest against the Dolphins, he'll very likely be active and be looking to build upon a modest 8-92-0 line on nine targets through two outings to begin the campaign.

Stays limited at practice
Lockett (thigh) was a limited practice participant Wednesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Lockett continues to operate with a cap on his practice reps due to the thigh issue that has followed him since mid-August. Still, he's been able to suit up for both of Seattle's games this season on his way to eight catches (on nine targets) for 92 yards and no touchdowns. Whether Lockett enters Sunday's game against the Dolphins listed as questionable like he was in Week 1 or minus an injury designation like he was in Week 2 will hinge on his practice activity Thursday and Friday.

Just two targets in win
Lockett totaled 15 yards on two receptions (two targets) in Sunday's 23-20 overtime win versus the Patriots.
Analysis: Lockett was seemingly left out of the gameplan while DK Metcalf and Jaxon Smith-Njigba combined for 246 yards on 30 targets. There's no doubt Lockett still has a role in this offense, especially considering how he paced the team with 77 receiving yards in the opener. However, Smith-Njigba's emergence in Week 2 has Lockett trending toward the No. 3 wideout role.

Lockett (thigh) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game at New England, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Lockett has been dealing with a thigh injury since mid-August and was listed as questionable for Week 1, before catching six passes for 77 yards on a team-high seven targets in a 26-20 win over Denver. He got fewer snaps and routes than Jaxon Smith-Njigba, who nonetheless was targeted just twice en route to a 2-19-0 receiving line.

Analysis: Lockett is following the same routine this week as he did during Week 1 prep, meaning he likely will follow back-to-back capped sessions with a full practice Friday. Whether or not he enters the weekend with a designation for Sunday's game at New England remains to be seen, but there doesn't seem to be much, if any, worry about him being available.

Leading receiver in Week 1 win
Lockett (thigh) brought in six of seven targets for 77 yards in Sunday's 26-20 win over the Broncos.
Analysis: Lockett was battling a thigh injury this preseason, and while his presence in the lineup wasn't in serious doubt, fantasy managers should be pleased with Sunday's results. The veteran wideout should remain an integral part of Seattle's balanced passing attack. That said, an absent Kenneth Walker (abdomen) from next week's tilt against the Patriots could produce another healthy target total for Lockett.

He injured his thigh in mid-August and missed more than two weeks of practice, returning this Monday and ultimately progressing to full participation by the end of the week.

Lockett recorded one reception on five targets for 10 yards in Sunday's 30-23 loss to the Steelers.
Analysis: The Seahawks ran only 49 offensive plays, which limited the volume of many of their skill-position players. That was the case for Lockett, who has seen five or fewer targets in only four games this season. The performance was a continuation of his uneven production this season, as he has been held under 25 yards in two of his last four games, but he's topped 80 in the other two contests.

Analysis: Lockett bounced back from last week's poor showing (3-21-0 versus Philadelphia) to lead the Seahawks in receiving against Tennessee. The veteran wideout played a key role in Sunday's comeback victory when he made two drive-extending catches late in the fourth quarter that led to Colby Parkinson's deciding touchdown grab. Lockett hasn't scored a touchdown since Week 10, but he is seeing enough volume to provide fantasy utility against the Steelers next Sunday.

Modest numbers in Week 13 loss
Lockett secured five of eight targets for 47 yards in the Seahawks' 41-35 loss to the Cowboys on Thursday night.
Analysis: The veteran speedster was in the unusual role of playing third fiddle, as Jaxon Smith-Njigba recorded a career-high seven catches while DK Metcalf racked up three touchdown grabs. Lockett was relatively efficient with his solid target total, but his yardage tally was his second straight under 50. Greater contributions will almost certainly be needed from Lockett for the Seahawks to have a chance of prevailing in a critical Week 14 road contest against the 49ers on Sunday, Dec. 10.

The speedy veteran wideout also had the ball taken from him by the 49ers' Ambry Thomas for Geno Smith's one interception of the night, and his yardage total was his lowest since Week 1.

Analysis: Lockett has been dealing with a bum hamstring for several weeks, but his status appeared to truly be questionable leading up to Sunday's eventual start. The Seattle stalwart wound up providing an average fantasy line for managers who rolled the dice on his health.

Lockett (hamstring) remains listed as questionable but is expected to play Sunday against the Rams, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Lockett missed all three practices this week, and while the veteran receiver isn't someone who needs to practice in order to play on Sundays, it's fair to wonder how close to 100 percent he might be leading up to the 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff. Assuming he avoids the inactive list, Lockett should start Sunday, but he may end up facing more limitations with his snap count than usual. If that's the case, DK Metcalf and rookie Jaxon Smith-Njigba could be needed to absorb some extra targets.

Analysis: Listed on Seattle's injury reports for the past month, Lockett will enter the weekend with a designation for the second time. The first time was Week 8, when he ended up catching eight passes for 81 yards and a touchdown against an excellent Cleveland secondary. He seems more likely than not to play at this point, though an upcoming Thursday matchup with San Francisco in Week 12 could perhaps inspire the Seahawks to be more cautious than normal.

Cashes in fourth TD Sunday
Lockett (hamstring) had eight receptions on 10 targets for 92 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 29-26 win over the Commanders.
Analysis: Lockett powered through his lingering hamstring injury to post one of his better receiving lines of the season Sunday. The veteran's eight receptions and 10 targets both matched his previous highs in each category this season, as his usage did not decrease despite playing at less than 100 percent in recent weeks. Lockett's 46-494-4 receiving line through nine starts should be enough to earn a spot in most lineups when the Seahawks visit the Rams next Sunday.

Kicks off week as limited
Lockett (hamstring) was a limited practice participant Wednesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: For the fourth week in a row, Lockett is making an appearance on Seahawks practice reports due to a lingering hamstring issue. In three games playing through the injury, he's racked up a 15-151-1 receiving line on 22 targets. Because he avoided a designation on the final report of the week twice during that span, Lockett's status for Sunday's game against the Commanders likely isn't in question. Still, his status should be monitored to ensure he trends in such a direction.

Little production on eight targets
Lockett recorded three catches on eight targets for 32 yards in Sunday's 37-3 loss to the Ravens.
Analysis: Lockett was the most-targeted wide receiver in Seattle's offense, though his lack of production was indicative of the team's overall struggles. His biggest play of the day came on his first target, which went for an 18-yard gain. Lockett entered Sunday with more than 80 receiving yards in two of his previous three games, though he has also now been held under 40 yards in four of eight contests.

Clear for Week 9
Lockett (hamstring) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game in Baltimore, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Lockett has been tending to a hamstring injury for three weeks running, but despite sitting out Wednesday's session before practicing in a limited fashion Thursday, he'll be available for the eighth time in as many games this season. He'll be looking to build upon a 35-390-3 line on 49 targets to date against the Ravens' third-ranked pass defense (176.6 yards per game) Sunday.

Manages limited practice Thursday
Lockett (hamstring) was a limited practice participant Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: After being listed as a DNP on four of Seattle's previous five practice reports, Lockett finally is logging a capped session (he was full last Friday). It's a step in the right direction, but he still has some work to do to avoid an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game at Baltimore. Meanwhile, DK Metcalf (hip) didn't practice Thursday, clouding the Week 9 statuses of the team's top two wide receivers.

Sits out Wednesday's practice
Lockett (hamstring) was a non-participant at Wednesday's practice, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Dating back to Week 7 prep, Lockett now has been listed as a non-participant on four of the Seahawks' last five injury reports due to a hamstring issue, but it hasn't stopped him from suiting up the last two contests on his way to 12 catches (on 14 targets) for 119 yards and one touchdown. He may follow a similar practice pattern until his hamstring is back to 100 percent, but his availability for game days doesn't appear to be in much question.

Finds end zone in victory
Lockett recorded eight receptions on nine targets for 81 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-20 win over the Browns.
Analysis: Lockett's nine targets were surprisingly his second-highest total of the season, which allowed him to top 80 yards in a game for as many times on the campaign -- both of which came in his last three games. The highlight of his performance came on a 12-yard touchdown reception midway through the second quarter, his first time in the end zone since Week 2. When possible, the Seahawks try to run an offense centered on the ground game, which has served to limit Lockett's volume and production…read more

Suiting up in Week 8
Lockett (hamstring) is listed as active Sunday versus the Browns.
Analysis: Lockett was able to play through a hamstring injury Week 7 when DK Metcalf was inactive due to rib and hip issues. After opening Week 8 prep with back-to-back missed practices because of the lingering health concern, Lockett capped it with a full session, and while the wide receiver was listed as questionable for Sunday's contest, coach Pete Carroll told Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times on Friday that Lockett was in line to play this weekend.

Analysis: Lockett, who is officially listed as questionable, practiced in full Friday and looks on track to suit up Week 8. The veteran wideout's status will be made official when Seattle releases its inactive list roughly 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff.

Analysis: According to Condotta, Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said Lockett made it through practice without any issues and is expected to be active ahead of a 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff this Sunday. The wide receiver didn't practice Wednesday or Thursday, but his absences may have been more so out of a matter of caution than a result of him not being healthy enough to participate.

Practices, deemed questionable
Lockett (hamstring) returned to practice Friday and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Browns, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.
Analysis: Lockett likely will be a limited participant Friday after missing practice entirely Wednesday and Thursday. Still, Lockett's return to practice in some capacity gives him a shot to play Sunday. With the Seahawks and Browns kicking off at 4:05 p.m. ET, fantasy managers could have a game-time decision on their hands. The combination of a hamstring injury and a matchup with Cleveland's excellent secondary isn't ideal even if Lockett ends up playing and is able to handle his usual snap workload.

Lockett (hamstring) didn't practice Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Dating back to last week, Lockett has missed three straight practices due to a hamstring issue. He didn't seem worse for wear this past Sunday against the Cardinals, logging 71 percent of snaps and gathering in four of five targets for 38 yards with DK Metcalf (ribs/hip) sidelined.

Analysis: With DK Metcalf (ribs/hip) sidelined during this past Sunday's win over the Cardinals, Lockett didn't get much more run than normal (70 percent snap share) and also ranked third among Seahawks in receiving yards (38) behind rookies Jaxon Smith-Njigba (63) and Jake Bobo (61).

Quiet game as youngsters shine
Lockett (hamstring) had four receptions on five targets for 38 yards in Sunday's 20-10 win over the Cardinals.
Analysis: Seattle was without the services of top wideout DK Metcalf (ribs/hip) on Sunday, pushing Lockett into the No. 1 role after overcoming a minor injury of his own. The veteran saw his targets decrease to five against Arizona after averaging seven over his previous six contests. Lockett gave way to rookies Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Jake Bobo, who each scored a touchdown while catching four passes apiece in a combined effort to replace the team's star offensive player. It sounds like Metcalf had a…read more

Good to go
Lockett (hamstring) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against Arizona, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.
Analysis: DK Metcalf, meanwhile, is listed as questionable with hip and rib injuries. Lockett doesn't have much room for snap/route growth but would project for a larger share of Seattle's targets in the event of a Metcalf absence. The Cardinals rank bottom 10 in a slew of pass-defense stats and have injury issues in the secondary to boot.

Metcalf has been able to gut them out so far this season, but Friday's practice report could be telling for their respective odds to play Sunday versus the Cardinals.

Tending to hamstring issue
Lockett was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice by a hamstring injury, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Aside from getting a concussion check Week 1, Lockett has avoided health concerns this season. As the Seahawks begin Week 7 prep, he joined DK Metcalf on the team's injury report, though the latter was a non-participant due to rib and hip issues. Considering the two represent Seattle's top pass-catching options, the status of the duo will need to be watched closely as Sunday's game versus the Cardinals draws closer.

Leads Seattle in receiving yards
Lockett recorded six receptions on eight targets for 94 yards in Sunday's 17-13 loss to the Bengals.
Analysis: Lockett topped four receptions for only the second time this season and turned in his most productive yardage performance of the campaign. His effort was driven primarily by a pair of long catches of 36 and 32 yards, bringing his total catches of more than 20 yards to three across four games. It's been an underwhelming start to the year for Lockett and the Seattle passing attack, but they'll have a chance to get on track in a Week 7 matchup against the Cardinals.

Team-high four receptions

Analysis: Lockett's four receptions wound up leading the Seahawks on a night where the team needed just 173 passing yards to secure a three-score victory. Fellow starter DK Metcalf hauled in Seattle's only passing touchdown Monday, resulting in another pedestrian fantasy performance for his veteran running mate.

Three grabs in Sunday's win
Lockett caught three of seven passes for 34 yards in Sunday's 37-27 win over the Panthers. He also caught a two-point conversion.
Analysis: The 30-year-old wideout took a back seat to DK Metcalf in this one and couldn't repeat last week's two-TD performance, but Lockett was who Geno Smith looked for as he scrambled around on a two-point conversion attempt in the fourth quarter. Lockett hasn't produced much yardage yet in 2023, but that could change in Week 4 against a Giants secondary that just got torched for a 6-129-1 line by the 49ers' Deebo Samuel.

Leaves game briefly
Lockett (head) finished with two catches (four targets) for 10 yards in Sunday's 30-13 loss to the Rams.
Analysis: Lockett was forced out of the contest for concussion evaluation before being cleared to return and finish out the game. It was a disappointing showing from Seattle's entire passing offense, and the veteran wideout had the added concern regarding his health. The fact that Lockett finished the game without issue bodes well for his prospects heading into next week's tilt against Detroit, but he will likely have to clear the league's protocol before receiving clearance.

Sees action Saturday
Lockett (undisclosed) brought in his only target for six yards in the Seahawks' 22-14 preseason win over the Cowboys on Saturday night.
Analysis: The veteran wideout had worked through some tightness earlier in training camp, but he was healthy enough to make his preseason debut Saturday. Lockett's one catch came on Seattle's first drive as he worked with starting quarterback Geno Smith, and it remains to be seen if either of the duo will play in next Saturday afternoon's exhibition finale versus the Packers.

Working through 'minor tightness'
Lockett (undisclosed) primarily logged work on the side during Monday's practice, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Coach Pete Carroll relayed that Lockett is tending to "some minor tightness," per Henderson. The Seahawks open the preseason Thursday against the Vikings, so it's unlikely Lockett will be available for that contest. In fact, considering the rapport he displayed with quarterback Geno Smith in 2022, Lockett may not see much, if any, work during exhibition season. Whenever he's healthy, Lockett will be looking to put up a fifth consecutive 1,000-yard season during the upcoming campaign.

Six catches in loss to Niners
Lockett caught six of eight targets for 39 yards in Saturday's 41-23 wild-card loss to the 49ers.
Analysis: The veteran wideout was reduced to being a possession option for Geno Smith while DK Metcalf (10-136-2 on 13 targets) did the damage downfield. Lockett reached 1,000 receiving yards for the fourth straight campaign in 2022, finishing with 84 catches for 1,033 yards and nine touchdowns in 16 regular-season games, and after a fairly seamless transition from Russell Wilson, he should see success next season whether Smith gets re-signed or Seattle looks elsewhere for a starting quarterback.

Catches key touchdown
Lockett recorded four receptions on seven targets for 54 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 19-16 overtime win over the Rams.
Analysis: Lockett has battled a number of injuries in recent weeks, though he managed to tally a key 36-yard touchdown early in the third quarter to knot the score at 13-13. He also helped set up the Seahawks' game-winning field goal with a 17-yard catch in overtime. Lockett found the end zone in seven of Seattle's last nine games, and he reached at least eight total touchdowns for the fifth consecutive campaign. If Seattle reaches the postseason, he'll likely remain Geno Smith's favorite target.

Analysis: Lockett returned from a one-week absence due to a hand injury, but he picked up a leg injury during the game and ended up playing just 22 snaps (31 percent). While he did return to the game, it will be worth monitoring Lockett's status during the week ahead of the regular-season finale versus the Rams.

Analysis: While Lockett's finger injury is significant enough to prevent him from playing Saturday in Kansas City, Carroll relayed that the 30-year-old's surgery was "perfect," leaving the door open for him to miss just one game. The Seahawks will likely have a better sense of Lockett's progress when the team reconvenes for its first Week 17 practice next Wednesday. His absence for Week 16 likely leaves Marquise Goodwin and Laquon Treadwell in line to serve as the Seahawks' Nos. 2 and 3 wideouts behind…read more

Could return Week 17 after surgery
Lockett (finger) likely will have surgery and could be back as soon as Week 17, though a return timeline won't be available until after the procedure, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Lockett suffered a spiral crack in his first metacarpal during the final drive of Thursday's 21-13 loss to San Francisco. He hopes to miss only one game and return for the final two weeks of the regular season as Seattle fights for a wild-card spot, but it sounds like there's not actually a timeline yet, and all that's known for sure is he'll miss at least one game when the Seahawks face the Chiefs in Week 16.

Suffers broken finger
Lockett broke a bone in his index finger during Thursday's 21-13 loss to the 49ers, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Lockett played the majority of the game and tied for the team lead with seven receptions and paced the receiving corps with 68 yards. However, he exited the contest late and will be sidelined for some period of time. Coach Pete Carroll declined to give further detail, though he said Lockett hopes to return for the team's Week 17 matchup against the Jets, per Curtis Crabtree of Fox 13 Seattle.

Extends touchdown streak
Lockett caught five of nine targets for 60 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 30-24 loss to the Panthers.
Analysis: Lockett caught a four-yard touchdown during the second quarter, remarkably giving him a sixth straight game with a score. The veteran has posted at least 60 yards in five of those outings, offering a dependable playmaker for quarterback Geno Smith. Lockett's strong recent production will be put to the test in Week 15, however, as a Thursday night matchup versus the 49ers' dominant defense awaits. That said, Lockett managed nine catches for 107 yards versus San Francisco in Week 2, raising…read more

Huge numbers in win over Rams
Lockett caught nine of 12 targets for 128 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-23 win over the Rams.
Analysis: He was Seattle's leading receiver on the afternoon, topping DK Metcalf by one catch and one yard, and the duo dominated the looks as Geno Smith posted a career-high 367 passing yards. Lockett also extended his TD streak to five games, tying the franchise record on a 36-yard catch in the first quarter. The veteran wideout will look to claim the record for himself by scoring in a sixth straight contest in Week 14 against the Panthers.

Scores in fourth straight game
Lockett caught three of seven targets for 68 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 40-34 overtime loss to the Raiders.
Analysis: While it wasn't the most efficient performance for the veteran wideout, Lockett did haul in a 35-yard strike from Geno Smith in the second quarter to extend his TD streak to four games. He's posted a 16-240-4 line on 25 targets over that stretch, and he figures to be productive again in Week 13 against a struggling Rams squad.

Makes most of limited opportunity
Lockett recorded three receptions on five targets for 42 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 21-16 loss to Tampa Bay.
Analysis: Lockett was held without a catch in the first half but came through for a 21-yard touchdown reception midway through the fourth quarter. He also chipped in 11- and 10-yard catches, both of which ultimately led to scores for Seattle. While there were positives to point to, Lockett now has only five targets in three of his last five games. That makes him heavily reliant on big plays and touchdowns to be productive, which he has managed to do to this point. However, it will also lead to him…read more

Scores again in Week 9
Lockett caught all five of his targets for 67 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 31-21 win over the Cardinals.
Analysis: His nine-yard scoring grab late in the third quarter gave Seattle a lead the team wouldn't relinquish. Lockett has four TDs on the season, and they've all come in the last five games, giving him plenty of momentum heading into a Week 10 clash with Tampa Bay in Germany.

Full practice Thursday
Lockett (hamstring/ribs) practiced fully Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: After a week in which he tended to hamstring and rib injuries, Lockett seemingly is in the clear following the second session of Week 9 prep. The same can be said for DK Metcalf (knee), setting the duo up to face a Cardinals defense Sunday that has conceded the fifth-most catches (105) but only five total touchdowns to wide receivers in eight games this season.

Lockett (hamstring/ribs) was a limited participant in practice Wednesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Like fellow wide receiver DK Metcalf (knee), Lockett gutted through his own health concerns Week 8 against the Giants, and despite some uncharacteristic faux pas, he finished with five catches (on eight targets) for 63 yards and one touchdown. As the Seahawks kick off preparations for a Week 9 visit to Arizona, Lockett again is tending to hamstring and rib issues, but practice sessions on Thursday and Friday could paint a clearer picture of his upcoming availability.

Hauls in game-winning TD
Lockett caught five of eight targets for 63 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-13 win over the Giants.
Analysis: The veteran wideout was questionable to even play in this one due to multiple injuries, and while Lockett was able to tough them out, he didn't appear to be 100 percent and dropped a couple passes early. He more than made up for his miscues though, hauling in a 33-yard pass from Geno Smith midway through the fourth quarter that broke a 13-13 tie. Lockett wound up leading Seattle in receiving yards, but he'll likely have his practice workload capped to give him extra time to heal up ahead of a…read more

Analysis: For a second week in a row, Lockett will play through health concerns, one of which cropped up during Thursday's practice. Coach Pete Carroll called it "an oblique kind of something" Friday, per John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site, which made Lockett a game-time decision for Week 8. Lockett and DK Metcalf (knee) were treated the same way Sunday, and both wide receivers are available against New York's 15th-ranked pass defense (211 yards per game).

Not yet locked in to play Week 8
Lockett (hamstring/rib) remains listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Giants and is considered to be a game-time decision, though the Seahawks have some optimism that he plays, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Rapoport's dispatch came just over two hours after Adam Schefter of ESPN reported that Lockett is expected to play, so while the receiver appears to be on the right side of the questionable tag, it's far from locked in at this point that he'll avoid the inactive list ahead of Sunday's 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff.

Expected to play Sunday
Lockett, who is listed as questionable due to hamstring and rib injuries, is expected to play Sunday against the Giants, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Lockett was banged up during Week 8 prep, but the specifics of his injury and his participation in practice were less than clear. Regardless, it appears like Seattle, barring a setback, will not only have Lockett available but is surprisingly expected to have DK Metcalf (knee) back as well. Despite the optimistic reports, fantasy managers are still encouraged to confirm both wideouts' availability ahead of Sunday's 4:25 PM ET kickoff.

Analysis: Lockett didn't practice at all last week before playing this past Sunday at the Chargers, so his return to the practice field in some capacity this week bodes well for his upcoming availability. He logged fewer offensive snaps (67 percent) than normal last week en route to hauling in seven of eight targets for 45 yards, but the Seahawks now are faced with a potential absence from DK Metcalf, who didn't practice Wednesday due to a patellar tendon injury.

Seven catches Sunday
Lockett caught seven of eight targets for 45 yards in Sunday's 37-23 win over the Chargers.
Analysis: While Lockett led the Seahawks in receptions and targets, his production was disappointing, especially considering DK Metcalf left the game in the first quarter with a knee injury. Lockett has hauled in at least five passes in five of the last six games, and if Metcalf's injury proves to be serious, he could deliver much better numbers in Week 8 against the Giants.

Coach Pete Carroll said Friday that Lockett (hamstring) has a "really good" chance to play in Sunday's game against the Chargers despite being held out of practice all week, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.
Analysis: Carroll is notorious for being overly optimistic about injuries, perhaps in an effort at gamesmanship (or not), but there's reason to believe Lockett can play without practicing, as he's an eight-year vet who has missed only one game due to injury in his career.

Lockett (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Chargers, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Coach Pete Carroll likely will comment on Lockett after Friday's practice, but Carroll has an extensive track record of misleading comments about injuries, typically in the overly optimistic direction. The real question is whether Lockett practices Friday, and to what extent, after he was held out Wednesday and Thursday. He played through the hamstring injury last week and logged 82 percent of the offensive snaps in a win over the Cardinals, catching two of five targets for only 17 yards.

Lockett recorded two receptions on five targets for 17 yards in Sunday's 19-9 win over the Cardinals.
Analysis: Lockett had his quietest game of the season and failed to top 75 yards for only the second time in six matchups. Geno Smith was slowed by the Arizona offense but also spread the ball to a wide range of receivers, as seven Seahawks pass catchers received multiple targets. Despite his down performance, Lockett has earned at least eight targets in three of six games on the campaign, and he should have a strong chance to bounce back in Week 7 against the Chargers.

Analysis: Lockett finished with the second-highest reception, receiving yardage and target totals behind DK Metcalf on the afternoon. The veteran speedster also recorded a 34-yard grab that served as a season high, and he's enjoyed a very busy start to the season with 30 targets in the last three games alone. Lockett's next opportunity to build on his early chemistry with Geno Smith comes in a Week 5 road matchup against the Saints in a dome environment that should favor his speed.

Lockett's four targets tied for second on the team with Noah Fant behind DK Metcalf's seven.

With Smith now named the Week 1 starter by coach Pete Carroll, Lockett will be working with a QB that may not look to stretch the field as much as Russell Wilson did, but the speedster is more than capable of supplying big plays on his own.

Lockett played the first series of Thursday's 27-11 preseason loss to the Bears but wasn't targeted.
Analysis: Both Lockett and D.K. Metcalf suited up briefly after sitting out last week's preseason opener, but quarterback Geno Smith (knee) didn't target either of his top two wide receivers during their brief time in the game. Smith didn't lead the Seahawks to any points despite playing the entire first half, so Seattle's quarterback competition between him and Drew Lock -- who sat this one out due to COVID-19 -- is far from decided heading into the team's Aug. 26 preseason finale in Dallas.

Analysis: On a snowy day in Seattle, the Seahawks' passing game was mostly quiet, leading to one of Lockett's worst performances of the season. The veteran wideout is on the cusp of a couple milestones, however, as he needs only five more receiving yards and one touchdown to set new career single-season highs in both categories, giving him something to play for in Week 17 against the Lions even with the Seahawks eliminated from postseason contention.

The Seahawks placed Lockett (undisclosed) on the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Lockett and Alex Collins (abdomen) are the second and third Seahawks to be placed on the list this season after Gerald Everett sat out Weeks 4 and 5 due a positive test of the virus. If Lockett is unable to suit up Sunday at the Rams, Seattle may be a bit compromised at wide receiver, as all of DK Metcalf (foot/back), Freddie Swain (ankle) and Dee Eskridge (foot) are tending to injuries at the moment.

Notches fifth 100-yard game of 2021
Lockett caught five of nine targets for 142 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 33-13 win over the Texans. He also caught a two-point conversion in the fourth quarter.
Analysis: Lockett made multiple sideline grabs in Sunday's contest and caught four passes for longer than 20 yards, including a 55-yard touchdown from Russell Wilson in the second quarter. That deep shot has been a signature play for the two stars, but until Sunday, we hadn't seen it following Wilson's return from injured reserve. With Lockett's fifth 100-yard performance of 2021, the 29-year-old wideout has now recorded 1,023 yards through 13 games, marking his third straight season with at last 1,000…read more

Hauls in TD in win
Lockett caught seven of eight targets for 68 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 30-23 win over the 49ers.
Analysis: The speedster was once again Russell Wilson's favorite option, leading the Seahawks in catches and receiving yards and capping his day with the game-winning score, a 12-yard fade to the back corner of the end zone from Wilson late in the fourth quarter. Lockett's TD was his first since Week 2, but his touchdowns have tended to come in bunches throughout his career, making him a high-upside play in Week 14 against the Texans.

Big plays Monday
Lockett caught three of five targets for 96 yards in Monday night's 17-15 loss to Washington.
Analysis: Lockett was explosive in the first half, hauling in a 55-yard pass prior to a 39-yard gain in the second quarter. Those big plays helped him comfortably lead the Seahawks in receiving, with teammate DK Metcalf managing merely one catch for 13 yards. Although Seattle's offense has struggled lately, Lockett has still been productive, now topping 95 yards in three of his last four contests.

Thrives amid dysfunction
Lockett caught four passes for 115 yards on five targets against Arizona on Sunday.
Analysis: The Seattle passing game was a complete dud aside from Lockett, who had somewhat disappointing target volume himself. As he so often does, Lockett did a lot of damage with his targets, and it's by any standard a strong showing to produce 115 receiving yards in an offense that threw for just 207 total, but Seattle's passing game simply went too cold for too long when Lockett wasn't landing his shots. Russell Wilson (finger) clearly is not himself yet, so he'll look to make progress in time to…read more

Quiet in Week 10
Lockett caught two receptions for 23 yards on eight targets against Green Bay on Sunday.
Analysis: It was a frustrating day for Lockett and the Seattle receivers, none of whom could get anything going despite beating the Green Bay secondary plenty of times. The fact is that Lockett and DK Metcalf will both struggle to produce if Russell Wilson (finger) can't play better than he did against Green Bay, and the upcoming Arizona defense is probably less charitable than that of the Packers.

Pops off for 142 yards
Lockett caught 12 of 13 targets for 142 yards in Sunday's 31-7 win over the Jaguars.
Analysis: Lockett caught 17 passes for 159 yards over the previous five games, and he finally broke out of his slump with conviction in the team's first win with Geno Smith under center. The Seahawks are on bye next week and will return in Week 10 against the Packers. Lockett has been so boom-or-bust this season that it's tough to predict his big games, but it would certainly help his odds if Russell Wilson (finger) is back under center. Wilson is optimistic he'll return in Week 10, but he'll need to hit…read more

Another poor outing with backup QB
Lockett caught two of three targets for just 12 yards in Monday's 13-10 loss to New Orleans.
Analysis: Lockett turned in his second dismal performance with Geno Smith under center. The backup quarterback can't be blamed for all of his wideout's shortcomings, as Lockett had been struggling when Russell Wilson (finger) was healthy outside of Weeks 1 and 2. The 28-year-old possesses the explosive talent to ignite a huge fantasy game on any given week, but perhaps it's best to explore other options, at least until Wilson returns from IR.

Struggles in losing effort
Lockett had just two receptions (seven targets) for 35 yards in Sunday's 23-20 overtime loss to Pittsburgh.
Analysis: It was a disappointing passing output from the Seahawks overall in Geno Smith's first start with the club, but Lockett was particularly disappointing given the poor catch rate (29 percent) and low production. The speedy wideout has a chance to bounce back next week against the Saints, especially if DK Metcalf draws most of the attention from shutdown corner Marshon Lattimore. That being said, it could simply be a rough go of things for the entire Seattle passing attack for at least two more…read more

Five catches in loss
Lockett secured five of 10 targets for 57 yards in the Seahawks' 26-17 loss to the Rams on Thursday night.
Analysis: Lockett logged a team-high number of targets but wasn't exactly efficient with them. The speedster was also the intended receiver on what essentially turned out to be a game-sealing interception thrown by Geno Smith, with Lockett getting slowed just a tad by contact as he crossed the field on his route. The 29-year-old has now posted a combined 13-112-0 line over his last three games after hitting the 100-yard mark and scoring three TDs in his first pair of contests, and he'll look to get back…read more

Four catches in quiet effort
Lockett (hip) caught four of five targets for 24 yards against San Francisco on Sunday.
Analysis: Lockett toughed out the hip injury to make some catches underneath for the Seahawks, but the Seattle passing game was generally ineffective Sunday, and Lockett's modest numbers partially reflect that. Lockett gets a potentially tough short-week matchup with the Rams defense Thursday, so the going won't get any easier. The Seahawks passing game will attempt to answer the call in a crucial divisional game.

Lockett (hip) is active for Sunday's game at San Francisco.
Analysis: Lockett came out of Week 3 at Minnesota with a hip injury, the result of a tackle at the end of a catch in which his leg was twisted. His participation in ensuing practices was all over the place -- limited Wednesday, none Thursday and every drill Friday -- as he entered the weekend with a cloud hanging over his availability.

Optimism for Sunday
Lockett (hip) is listed as questionable but is expected to play in Sunday's game against the 49ers, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Lockett's participation in practice fluctuated throughout the week, though his full participation Friday seemingly puts him in a good position for Sunday's contest. Schefter's report echoes head coach Pete Carroll's optimism regarding Lockett's status, but the final word will come approximately 90 minutes before the 4:05 p.m. kickoff, when Seattle releases its inactive list. The 49ers are likely to be without several key players in their secondary, so Lockett could be in a good position to…read more

Should play Sunday
Lockett (hip) appears likely to play Sunday against the 49ers, as coach Pete Carroll sounded optimistic after the wide receiver was a full practice participant Friday, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.
Analysis: Carroll isn't exactly reliable when it comes to injury intel, but it does seem a full practice Friday gives Lockett a strong chance to play, even after he was a non-participant Thursday. Fantasy managers nonetheless would be wise to keep at least one eye on the situation ahead of Sunday's 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff, as it wouldn't be the first time Seattle's inactive list contained a surprise that contradicted Carroll's previous statements.

Questionable for Week 4
Lockett (hip) is listed as questionable for Sunday's contest at San Francisco, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: It's no surprise Lockett's status is in limbo after his leg was twisted at the end of a catch this past Sunday at Minnesota. The issue limited his practice reps Wednesday before he didn't take the field at all Thursday, but the Seahawks still are keeping the door open for the seven-year pro to suit up this weekend. Ultimately, the team will make a decision on Lockett's availability about 90 minutes before Sunday's 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff.

No practice Thursday
Lockett (hip) was held out of practice Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Lockett tested the waters Wednesday following a scary sequence this past Sunday in which his leg was twisted and he remained on the turf for a spell. He remained in that game, but after Wednesday's limited session he logged no activity just one day later. The Seahawks may just be exercising extreme caution with one of their top playmakers, especially with fellow wide receiver DK Metcalf joining Lockett on Thursday's injury report as limited with a foot injury.

Dealing with hip issue
Lockett was limited at Wednesday's practice due to a hip injury, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Analysis: Lockett had his leg twisted when he was tackled at the end of a six-yard catch in the fourth quarter of the Seahawks' Week 3 loss at Minnesota. At first glance, it appeared to be a potentially bad knee injury, but Lockett was able to return and recorded one more reception the rest of the way. Lockett likely is fine moving forward, but his practice reps may be capped in the short term to ensure he stays healthy.

Quiet in loss to Vikings
Lockett caught all four of his targets for 31 yards in Sunday's 30-17 loss to the Vikings.
Analysis: After two huge games to begin the season, Lockett turned in a far more pedestrian line Sunday as it was DK Metcalf's turn to shine instead. At least one of Russell Wilson's two elite receivers is likely to pop in any given week, but the fact that Lockett has seen five targets or less in two of three games so far makes him the more volatile of the duo heading into a Week 4 clash with the 49ers.

Busts out for 178 yards, one TD
Lockett reeled in eight of 11 targets for 178 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's 33-30 overtime defeat to the Titans.
Analysis: Lockett's connection with Russell Wilson has been on point through the first two games of the season, with the wide receiver posting back-to-back 100-yard efforts for the second time in his seven-year career. So far, Lockett and DK Metcalf are tied for the team lead with 16 targets on the campaign, but Lockett has been far more efficient, averaging a ridiculous 23.2 YPC and 17.4 YPT (versus 11.3 and 7.1, respectively, for Metcalf) while getting in the end zone in both contests. Lockett will…read more

Huge fantasy day to begin 2020
Lockett caught four of five targets for 100 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 28-16 win over the Colts.
Analysis: Lockett immediately began paying dividends on the four-year, $69.2 million contract he signed with the Seahawks this past offseason. The speedy wideout burned the opposing secondary on two separate occasions and Russell Wilson -- as he is known to do -- floated perfect passes right into his bread basket. The air attacking trio of Wilson (four TDs), Lockett and DK Metcalf (60 yards and a TD) looks to be a potent one heading into a Week 2 matchup against the Titans.

Avoids injury report
Lockett (groin) isn't listed on the Seahawks' injury report Wednesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Head coach Pete Carroll kept the key pieces of his offensive arsenal -- Russell Wilson, Chris Carson, DK Metcalf and Lockett -- on the sideline this preseason, but only Lockett was dealing with an injury. Now that the regular season officially is in session, however, Lockett is unhindered on the practice field. He'll look to put up a third consecutive 1,000-yard season and fifth straight year playing an entire regular-season slate.

Lockett (groin) didn't play in Saturday's final preseason game against the Chargers.
Analysis: Lockett likely wouldn't have played even if he was 100 percent, as Russell Wilson, DK Metcalf and Chris Carson all watched the entire preseason from the sidelines. There's no indication that Lockett is in danger of missing the season opener against the Colts on Sept. 12, as he's been participating in team drills for over a week now. With back-to-back, 1,000-yard campaigns under his belt, Lockett is set up well for another big campaign along with Metcalf. The duo is one of the most lethal…read more

Head coach Pete Carroll said Lockett (groin) could play in the final preseason game Saturday versus the Chargers, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Analysis: Lockett has been tending to a groin injury for nearly a week now, and he was able to go through warmups ahead of this past Saturday's preseason loss to the Broncos before ultimately watching from the sidelines. The 28-year-old wideout is making steady progress in his return to action. The Seahawks nonetheless will take a cautious approach in the final preseason game if Lockett's feeling any ill effects. The Kansas State product has missed just one game over his six-year career.

Tending to groin issue
Coach Pete Carroll said Tuesday that Lockett has missed recent practices due to a groin injury, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Analysis: Any minor health concern to a player of Lockett's stature oftentimes results in teams taking a cautious approach, and the Seahawks are doing exactly that with the seventh-year pro. Due to the investment Seattle made in him this offseason -- he inked a four-year, $69.2 million extension with the team back in March -- he'll likely remain on the sideline until the issue is a thing of the past. As such, Lockett may be in danger of sitting out Saturday's preseason game against the Broncos.

Earns four-year extension
Lockett and the Seahawks agreed Wednesday on a four-year, $69.2 million extension, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Lockett's new deal includes $37 million guaranteed, giving the reliable sixth-year wideout a well-deserved pay raise. With 3,076 receiving yards and 28 receiving touchdowns over the last three seasons, Lockett has clearly established himself as one of the league's premier deep-ball threats. His yards per reception fell off a bit in 2020, down to 10.5 from 12.9 in 2019, but he made up for the slight decline in efficiency with a career-high 100 catches.

Catches two passes in loss
Lockett caught two of four targets for 43 yards in Saturday's 30-20 wild-card loss to the Rams.
Analysis: It was a quiet game overall for Seattle's passing game, as Russell Wilson completed just 41 percent of his passes for 174 yards, two touchdowns and an interception. Lockett caught a pair of long passes, with his two receptions going for 24 and 19 yards. The sixth-year wideout nevertheless put together a remarkable 2020 season, posting a 100-1,054-10 line through 16 regular-season games.

Goes off for two scores
Lockett hauled in 12 receptions (14 targets) for 90 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 26-23 win over the 49ers.
Analysis: Lockett capped off the regular season with a bang, abusing a battered 49ers secondary that focused its remaining resources on containing DK Metcalf (three catches for 21 yards). The 28-year-old had taken a backseat to the budding superstar across from him in formations down the stretch, averaging just 46.9 yards per game with one total touchdown over his previous nine contests.

Makes three catches vs. Rams
Lockett caught three of five targets for 44 yards during Sunday's 20-9 win over the Rams.
Analysis: Lockett's long gain of 24 yards matched his best from the last six games, but he struggled to make a notable impact other than that. He has now topped 60 receiving yards just once over his last five games and hasn't reached the end zone during that stretch. Lockett seems to be quite far removed from his monstrous 200-yard performance from Week 7 but will look to finish the regular season on a high note next Sunday against the 49ers.

Analysis: Given the final score, Lockett's line was a bit disappointing as he wasn't one of the four different Seahawks that Russell Wilson found for TDs on the afternoon. Lockett has still seen at least five targets and caught at least three passes in nine straight games, and he's closing in on his second straight 1,000-yard campaign heading into Week 15's road clash with a stingy Washington secondary.

Analysis: Lockett was largely held in check besides an 18-yard reception in the second quarter.

Still, the sixth-year wideout was the only pass catcher to be targeted more than four times by Russell Wilson on Sunday, and he ended up with a modest output as a result.

Held quiet in Week 8
Lockett recorded four receptions on five targets for 33 yards in Week 8 against the 49ers.
Analysis: Coming off a massive Week 7 performance, Lockett was held in check by San Francisco's defense. Instead, DK Metcalf was peppered with 15 targets and posted 161 receiving yards with two scores. Though Lockett has seven touchdowns, he's accumulated six of them in two games. Similarly, he has accounted for 300 of his 575 receiving yards in two games this season. That leaves him with huge upside in every game, but also with a limited floor. Lockett will try to get back on track in Week 9 against…read more

Piles up 200 yards, three scores
Lockett caught 15 of 19 targets for 200 yards and three touchdowns in Sunday's 37-34 overtime loss to the Cardinals.
Analysis: After a pair of underwhelming games leading up to the Week 6 bye, Lockett came out of the gate firing, making a spectacular 35-yard, one-handed grab on the first play of the evening and catching his fifth touchdown of the year just five plays later. The speedy wideout caught a handful of dink-and-dunk passes the rest of the half before reeling in another score on a 47-yard moonball from Russell Wilson with 43 seconds left in the second quarter. Lockett remained Wilson's favorite target for the…read more

Quiet night in primetime
Lockett had four receptions (five targets) for 44 yards in Sunday's 27-26 win over the Vikings.
Analysis: Lockett was only able to do work on underneath routes against the Vikings since they kept two deep safeties for nearly the entire contest. The one deep shot Russell Wilson took toward Lockett wasn't synced up and resulted in the lone incompletion between the two. DK Metcalf's emergence as a star wideout has hurt Lockett over the past couple of weeks, but the speedy veteran remains involved and should have better weeks like we saw earlier in the season. Fantasy managers who roster Lockett will…read more

Invisible until fourth quarter
Lockett caught two of four targets for 39 yards in Sunday's 31-23 win over the Dolphins.
Analysis: Lockett was bound to fall back to earth after his three-touchdown performance against the Cowboys in Week 3, but he crashed harder than fantasy managers would've liked. He failed to haul in either of his two targets through the first three quarters, including a costly drop in Dolphins territory. Russell Wilson connected with him twice in the fourth quarter to somewhat salvage Lockett's fantasy day. The 28-year-old wideout will look to quickly shake off this dud with an appealing Week 5 matchup…read more

Hauls in three TDs in win
Lockett caught nine of 13 targets for 100 yards and three touchdowns in Sunday's 38-31 win over the Cowboys.
Analysis: The speedster found the end zone once in the first quarter on a 43-yard bomb and then twice in the second quarter on one-yard strikes, helping Russell Wilson make history as the first QB to throw for at least four TDs in each of his team's first three games. Lockett could be poised for another big performance next week against a Dolphins defense that couldn't contain John Brown or Stefon Diggs in its Week 2 meeting with the Bills.

Scores against Patriots
Lockett caught seven of eight targets for 67 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 35-30 win over the Patriots.
Analysis: Lockett was once against Russell Wilson's favorite target in Week 2, working underneath as DK Metcalf and David Moore took the top off the Patriots' defense. He's up to his usual efficiency, too, as Lockett has now reeled in 15 of 16 targets for 159 yards and a score this year. Metcalf has been targeted on the deeper passes -- an area in which Lockett also excels -- but the tandem is a clear 1A-1B where both should be considered viable fantasy starters on a weekly basis. The Seahawks have a…read more

Rings up 92 yards in opener
Lockett caught all eight of his targets for 92 yards in Sunday's 38-25 win over the Falcons.
Analysis: Lockett's connection with Russell Wilson seemed to get stronger this offseason as Wilson connected with the speedy receiver on every pass thrown his way. While it was DK Metcalf who found the end zone in this contest, both studs saw eight targets and were instrumental in helping Wilson reach historic efficiency -- his 88.6 completion percentage was the third-highest mark in NFL history among anyone throwing at least 35 passes in a game. The big plays may start leaning toward the big-bodied…read more

Thought about opting out
Lockett considered opting out of the 2020 season but decided to play, Joe Fann of NBC Sports Northwest reports.
Analysis: Lockett was diagnosed with a heart abnormality in 2015 while he was going through the draft process, and his cousin reportedly had a serious case of coronavirus. Those two aspects factored into his decision-making process, but ultimately, Lockett relayed that he believes the team has a good safety plan under head coach Pete Carroll's leadership. The 27-year-old Lockett is coming off his best season yet, as he hauled in 82 of 110 targets for 1,057 yards and eight touchdowns, and his targets…read more

Outstanding in loss to Packers
Lockett caught nine of 10 targets for 136 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 28-23 divisional-round loss to the Packers.
Analysis: Lockett delivered a tremendous performance in the loss, highlighted by a seven-yard touchdown in the third quarter. The speedy wide receiver produced his first 1,000-yard regular season in 2019, finishing with career highs in catches (82) and yards (1,057) while adding eight touchdowns. Lockett and standout rookie DK Metcalf should return in 2020 to form one of the league's most fearsome wideout duos for quarterback Russell Wilson.

Generates 62 yards in win
Lockett caught four of eight targets for 62 yards in Sunday's 17-9 wild-card win over the Eagles.
Analysis: DK Metcalf stole the show with seven receptions for 160 yards and a score, but Lockett produced modest production despite not finding the end zone. Three of Lockett's four catches went for first downs, and it was his third time in four games where he mustered 50-plus yards. Lockett and the Seahawks will head to Green Bay for the divisional round and face a Packers defense that allowed 232.6 passing yards per game during the regular season.

Bounces back against 49ers
Lockett caught six of seven targets for 51 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-21 loss to the 49ers.
Analysis: The second half of Lockett's season has been bumpy, but this game can be considered a success. Lockett surpassed 50 receiving yards for just the second time since Week 9. The 27-year-old's regular season ends with 82 catches for a career-high 1,057 yards and eight touchdowns. Lockett will look to build on this effort in the wild-card round, as the Seahawks travel to Philadelphia next Sunday.

Shut down by Cardinals
Lockett caught one of eight targets for 12 yards in Sunday's 27-13 loss to the Cardinals.
Analysis: Lockett looked like he was back on track after putting up eight receptions for 120 yards and a touchdown in Week 15's win over the Panthers, but he produced a bust performance against the league's worst-ranked pass defense Sunday. The fifth-year wideout did admit after last week's strong effort that he was still ailing from the flu bug, but nonetheless it's disappointing that for the fifth time in six games Lockett finished with less than 45 receiving yards. Lockett will look to get back on…read more

Puts up boom performance
Lockett caught eight of nine targets for 120 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 30-24 win over the Panthers.
Analysis: Lockett was disappointing over the previous three games, totaling just five receptions for 81 yards. The fifth-year wideout admitted after the game that he's still feeling sick and is down 10 pounds, according to Joe Fann of NBC Sports Northwest, but Lockett looked as explosive as ever with his fourth 100-yard performance of the year while finding the end zone for the first time since Week 9. Lockett's boom-or-bust tag will continue to follow him, but fantasy owners should feel confident…read more

Getting back to normal
Coach Pete Carroll said Lockett is "really back" in form this week, Adam Jude of The Seattle Times reports. "He was pretty good last week and he's going into this week rarin' to go," Carroll said.
Analysis: Lockett is entering a second straight week without being listed on the Seahawks' injury report, as John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site notes. The wide receiver's Week 14 performance also backs up Carroll's comments. Lockett put up four catches (on six catches) for 43 yards in Sunday's loss to the Rams. By putting the shin contusion he suffered Week 10 at San Francisco further in the rear-view mirror, Lockett is poised to pounce on a Panthers defense that has given up the third-most…read more

Another mediocre outing
Lockett caught four of five targets for 43 yards in Sunday's 28-12 loss to the Rams.
Analysis: After getting blanked by the Vikings last week, Lockett had his name called early and hauled in Russell Wilson's first pass of the game for two yards. However, it was still an unimpressive outing, as Lockett finished below 45 receiving yards for the fourth straight game. Lockett wasn't listed on the team's injury report during the practice week, so this looks like it was simply a valley in the wideout's volatile fantasy season. He's bound to break out again at some point, but it'll be tough in…read more

Blanked by Vikings
Lockett didn't haul in any of his three targets during Monday's 37-30 win over the Vikings.
Analysis: Lockett was held catchless for the first time since Week 11 of the 2017 season. Instead, DK Metcalf and Jacob Hollister both corralled six passes each for 75 and 44 yards, respectively. This is Lockett's second straight dud following last week's 38-yard effort. It's fair to worry whether he is hampered by the shin injury he sustained Week 10 against the 49ers, as he only practiced once in the week leading up to this contest. However, we can just as easily chalk it up to how Lockett is typically…read more

Does not carry injury status
Lockett (shin/illness) does not have an injury status for Monday's game against the Vikings, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Despite practicing on a limited basis just once Thursday and Friday, Lockett is set to play Monday against the Vikings in what figures to be a solid matchup for fantasy purposes. The 27-year-old saw season lows in receptions (one) and targets (two) Week 12 against the Eagles despite another favorable matchup, so fantasy owners may want to be a little cautious in relying on the big-play wideout if possible.

Doesn't practice Friday
Lockett (shin/illness) was listed as a non-participant in Friday's practice, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Lockett was a limited participant Thursday on the Seahawks' first practice report Week 13, so his downgrade in activity a day later isn't the most reassuring sign. Seattle will see what Lockett is able to do in its final session of the week Saturday before gauging his availability for the Monday night showdown with the Vikings.

Gets 'limited' tag Thursday
Lockett (shin) was listed as limited on Thursday's injury report, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: The Seahawks merely released an estimate of player participation, so how Lockett is listed Friday and Saturday will give a better sense of his health. Considering he seemed to come out of the team's Week 12 win at Philadelphia unscathed from the shin injury suffered Week 10, he'll look to ditch his designation prior to Monday's clash with the Vikings.

Accounts for just one reception
Lockett hauled in a 38-yard pass on two targets in Sunday's 17-9 win over the Eagles.
Analysis: Lockett received clearance after suffering a shin injury during the Week 10 win over the 49ers, and he was unproductive against a normally weak Philly secondary. Despite making just one catch, Lockett led the Seahawks in receiving yards as Russell Wilson spread out his 13 completions to seven different targets. This was just the third time this season Lockett finished with less than 51 receiving yards, and he'll look to get back on track in Week 13's clash against the Vikings.

Analysis: Lockett benefitted from a well-timed bye after he picked up a shin injury during a Week 10 win over the 49ers. He should be fine to handle his usual role come Sunday, facing an Eagles defense that's had some issues covering wide receivers but has been much better in recent weeks.

Analysis: Lockett is putting himself into a position to suit up Sunday at Philadelphia with activity in both Week 12 sessions to date. Considering he's only a little more than a week removed from a two-day stay in the hospital to reduce swelling in his left shin, he remains a question mark, but the Seahawks will have an opportunity to clear up his status on Friday's injury report.

Instead, Lockett bumped that up by one day, seemingly putting the wide receiver on track to miss no games due to the shin injury that forced him to sit out overtime of the Seahawks' Week 10 win at San Francisco and spend the next two days in the hospital. Clearly, Seattle's bye benefited Lockett, who, like Carroll, expects to suit up Sunday at…read more

Coach Pete Carroll said Lockett (shin) is "doing better," and he expects the wide receiver to play Sunday at Philadelphia, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Lockett is in recovery mode from a shin contusion that caused him to miss overtime of the Seahawks' Week 10 win at San Francisco. Subsequent swelling in the region forced a hospital stay, but he was able to return to Seattle last Wednesday.

Rejoining team
Lockett (lower leg) is traveling back to Seattle on Wednesday and remains on track to play in the Seahawks' next game Week 12 versus the Eagles, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Lockett spent the last two days at Stanford Hospital after sustaining a shin contusion during Monday's 27-24 win over the 49ers. The 27-year-old will benefit from extra time to recover due to the opportune timing of Seattle's bye, and he appears to have a good chance at returning to the field without missing any action. In his five-year NFL career, the durable wideout has suited up for 73 of a possible 74 regular-season games.

Optimism reigns
Lockett (shin) will remain at Stanford Hospital through Tuesday night, but according to coach Pete Carroll, the medical staff "think he's going to be fine to play next week" at Philadelphia, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: While no injury is a good one, the timing of Lockett's issue is opportune as the Seahawks enter their bye week. He missed the overtime period of Monday's 27-24 win at San Francisco due to a contusion to his shin that caused significant swelling, which necessitated the hospital visit. With plenty of time to rest and recover, Lockett will aim to miss no games as a result of the injury.

It's unclear if Josh Gordon (ankle) will be available Monday, but even if the newly signed wide receiver were to play, he's unlikely to cut significantly into Lockett's workload.

Lockett caught 13 of 18 targets for 152 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 40-34 overtime win against the Buccaneers.
