Upgrades to full participation
Dissly (shoulder) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.
Analysis: Dissly was a limited participant in Wednesday's session with a shoulder injury he likely sustained in the overtime win over the Eagles on Monday night. The tight end's upgrade to full participation and the corresponding clearing of an injury designation mean he should be all set to suit up for Sunday's game against the Chiefs. Dissly's projected availability will once again dampen Tyler Conklin's chances to garner active status after the No. 3 tight end was a healthy scratch in Dissly's return…read more

Working through shoulder issue
Dissly (shoulder) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Eric Smith of the Chargers' official site reports.
Analysis: Dissly likely picked up the injury during Monday's 22-19 overtime win over the Eagles, when he played 40 snaps (27 on offense, 13 on special teams) and caught a one-yard pass on his only target from Justin Herbert (left hand). Dissly will have two more chances to increase his practice participation ahead of Sunday's AFC West tilt against the Chiefs.

Records short reception in return
Dissly notched a one-yard reception on his lone target while playing 27 of the Chargers' 74 snaps on offense in Monday's 22-19 overtime win over the Eagles.
Analysis: Dissly didn't suit up in any of the Chargers' previous five games -- once due to an illness, the other four times in coach's decisions -- but he returned to the mix Monday and served as the top backup option to starting tight end Oronde Gadsden. Los Angeles opened up the small role for Dissly by placing Tucker Fisk (ankle) on injured reserve and by making Tyler Conklin a healthy inactive for the Week 14 contest.

Healthy scratch Week 10
Dissly (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Steelers.
Analysis: Dissly will be sidelined for a third consecutive game, with two of his absences as a result of a healthy scratch. The Chargers will go with three active tight ends for Sunday night's game in Oronde Gadsden, Tucker Fisk and Tyler Conklin.

Avoids injury report
Dissly (illness) was not listed on Wednesday's injury report, Eric Smith of the Chargers' official site reports.
Analysis: Dissly was a healthy scratch for Week 8 and then sat out Week 9 due to an illness, but he's now fully recovered. There's no guarantee that Dissly will be active for Sunday's game against the Steelers, however, even at full health. Tucker Fisk and Tyler Conklin have operated as Los Angeles' top reserve tight ends following the emergence of Oronde Gadsden.

Won't play against Tennessee
Dissly (illness) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Titans, Eric Smith of the Chargers' official site reports.
Analysis: Dissly ended Week 9 prep with back-to-back limited practices while working through an illness. He has not been cleared to play Sunday, so the Chargers will have three tight ends on the active roster in Oronde Gadsden, Tucker Fisk and Tyler Conklin. Dissly's next opportunity to play is Week 10 against the Steelers on Sunday, Nov. 9.

Questionable for Week 9
Dissly (illness) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Titans.

Analysis: The veteran tight end was cleared to return to practice in a limited capacity after missing Wednesday's session due to an illness.

Under the weather
Dissly did not practice Wednesday due to an illness.
Analysis: Dissly will have two more opportunities to recover enough to return to practice ahead of Sunday's game against the Titans. He was a healthy scratch for Week 8 against the Vikings, so there's no guarantee that he would be active for Week 9 even if he recovered enough to avoid an injury designation. Dissly appears to have been phased out of the Chargers' offensive gameplan due to the emergence of rookie fifth-rounder Oronde Gadsden, while Tucker Fisk and Tyler Conklin provide depth at tight end.

Healthy scratch Week 8
Dissly (coach's decision) is inactive for Thursday's game against the Vikings.
Analysis: Dissly played just three offensive snaps during the Chargers' Week 7 loss to the Vikings. His role in the offense has waned with the emergence of rookie fifth-rounder Oronde Gadsden, and Dissly will observe Thursday's game in street clothes. With Dissly inactive, the Chargers will roll with three tight ends on the active roster in Gadsden, Tucker Fisk and Tyler Conklin for Week 8.

Held catchless against Colts
Dissly failed to secure his lone target in Sunday's 38-24 loss to the Colts.
Analysis: Dissly was unable to make an impact in Sunday's high-scoring affair against the Colts, as the veteran tight end played just three of the Chargers' 76 offensive snaps. The 29-year-old has taken a clear backseat to fellow tight end Oronde Gadsden, who finished the game with seven catches for a team-leading 164 yards and a touchdown. Dissly should be ignored for fantasy purposes based on his limited usage in the Chargers' passing attack. Next up for Los Angeles is a Week 8 matchup against the…read more

Two catches in return
Dissly finished Sunday's 29-27 win over the Dolphins with two catches on as many targets for 18 yards.
Analysis: Dissly was cleared to return Sunday from a three-game absence due to a knee injury. He ended up playing 26 snaps on offense, which was behind 2025 fifth-rounder Oronde Gadsden (48) and Tucker Fisk (27), but ahead of veteran Tyler Conklin (three). Given the disparity in snap count between Dissly and Gadsden, it appears that the rookie has taken over as the Chargers' No. 1 option at tight end. Up next for the Chargers is a Week 7 home clash against a Colts team whose defense yielded eight catches…read more

Cleared from injury report
Dissly (knee) isn't listed on the Chargers' Week 6 injury report.
Analysis: Dissly is thus set to return for Sunday's game at Miami after missing each of the past three contests. Rookie tight end Oronde Gadsden took advantage initially, but he saw just one target in the Week 5 loss to Washington despite handling a season-high 61 percent route share. That number likely will drop with Dissly back in the lineup, although it's also possible Dissly mostly takes the snaps that went to Tyler Conklin and Tucker Fisk in recent weeks.

Remains sidelined Sunday
Dissly (knee) is inactive for Sunday's Week 5 matchup against the Commanders.
Analysis: Dissly went into the weekend with a questionable tag after partaking in every practice of Week 5 prep, including as a full participant Friday. Nevertheless, the veteran will miss a third consecutive game, leaving rookie Oronde Gadsden and veteran Tyler Conklin as Justin Herbert's two top options at tight end versus Washington.

Draws questionable tag for Week 5
Dissly (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Commanders, Eric Smith of the Chargers' official site reports.
Analysis: Dissly -- who worked fully Friday -- will carry a designation into the weekend after he was a limited participant in practices Wednesday and Thursday, while managing the knee issue. Before missing the Chargers' last two games, Dissly had served as the team's top tight end through the first two weeks of the season, but he drew just two targets between those contests.

Returns to limited practice
Dissly (knee) was limited at practice Wednesday.
Analysis: Dissly, who has missed the Chargers' last two games and had sat out all six of the team's practices since the start of Week 3 prep, is thus moving in the right direction ahead of Sunday's game against the Commanders. The tight end will presumably need to practice fully by Friday, however, in order to avoid a Week 5 injury designation.

Ruled out for Week 4
Dissly (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game at the Giants.
Analysis: Dissly hasn't been able to practice since the start of Week 3 prep due to a knee injury and now will miss a second consecutive contest as a result. His absence will allow the trio of Oronde Gadsden, Tyler Conklin and Tucker Fisk to handle TE duties for the Chargers this weekend, but Gadsden, a rookie fifth-round pick, is the one to note for fantasy purposes after hauling in five of seven targets for 46 yards during a Week 3 win against the Broncos.

Another DNP on Thursday
Dissly (knee) remained sidelined at Thursday's practice.
Analysis: After missing Week 3, Dissly appears to be trending toward another missed contest this Sunday against the Giants. With Dissly out last week, the Chargers used Tucker Fisk in a blocking role at tight end, and rookie Oronde Gadsden and Tyler Conklin shared pass-catching duties in a three-man weave at the position. Gadsden popped up for a 5-46-0 receiving line on seven targets but played just over 25 percent of the snaps.

Not spotted at practice
Dissly (knee) is not present at the early portion of Wednesday's practice open to the media, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Dissly couldn't gain clearance to suit up Week 3, and he hasn't practiced in any capacity since emerging from the Chargers' win over the Raiders on Monday night in Week 2 with a knee injury. While Dissly was sidelined Week 3, rookie fifth-round pick Oronde Gadsden made his debut and impressed with five catches for 46 yards on seven targets. If Dissly is again unable to suit up Sunday versus the Giants, Gadsden will continue to benefit from increased opportunities.

Analysis: In the wake of Monday's 20-9 win at Las Vegas, Dissly wasn't able to practice in any capacity this week due to a knee injury. Now that his status is confirmed for Week 3, Los Angeles likely will lean on Tyler Conklin at tight end, with rookie fifth-round pick Oronde Gadsden and Tucker Fisk both candidates to make their seasson debuts Sunday.

Secures lone target in win
Dissly caught his only target for seven yards in the 20-9 win over the Raiders on Monday.
Analysis: For a second consecutive week, Dissly played fewer snaps (23) than Tyler Conklin (29), but neither tight end was asked to do much more than block with the game relatively in hand throughout. So long as the wideout trio of Ladd McConkey, Quentin Johnston and Keenan Allen remain healthy, the Chargers' other pass-catchers won't see much target volume.

Dissly's lone target, which he turned into an 18-yard reception, came in the fourth quarter, while Conklin managed 50 yards on two targets, both of which he secured.

Finds end zone in preseason opener
Dissly brought in both targets for 14 yards and a touchdown during the Chargers' 34-7 preseason win over the Lions in Thursday's Hall of Fame Game.
Analysis: The veteran tight end capped off the Chargers' first drive with a nifty five-yard touchdown grab on a perfect touch pass from Trey Lance. Dissly broke out in 2024 with a career-best 50-481-2 receiving line over 15 regular-season games, and he's slated to open the campaign with at least a share of the top tight end job again despite the additions of Tyler Conklin and Oronde Gadsden via free agency and the draft, respectively.

Enjoys career year with Chargers
Dissly secured 50 of 64 targets for a career-high 481 yards and two touchdowns across 15 regular-season appearances with Los Angeles in 2024. He caught two of five targets for 16 yards during the team's wild-card round loss to the Texans.
Analysis: Dissly emerged as a consistent target for quarterback Justin Herbert in his inaugural season with the Chargers, setting new career-high marks across the board as a receiver. That said, the veteran tight end remained a fringe fantasy option in formats that start just one tight end, as he exceeded 50 yards in a game just twice during the 2024 season.

Analysis: Dissly was injured Week 14 against the Chiefs and missed this past Sunday's loss to the Bucs. He's viewed as "week-to-week," and now the Chargers have a short week ahead of a Thursday night game against the division-rival Broncos.

Dissly caught five of his six targets for 30 yards in the 27-17 win over the Titans on Sunday.
Analysis: Dissly led the team in targets and receptions, but he was effectively just a checkdown option in a game in which the Chargers attempted just 18 passes total. The seventh-year veteran does seem to have pushed Hayden Hurst out of the pass-catching tight end platoon role, as Hurst played just eight snaps for a second consecutive week. The lack of volume in the Los Angeles pass attacking will limit Dissly's fantasy production most weeks.

Good to go against Browns
Dissly (shoulder) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Browns after practicing without limitations Friday.
Analysis: The same applies to fellow tight end Hayden Hurst (groin) -- who has missed two straight games -- so Dissly could lose some volume in Week 9 after racking up 18 targets in Weeks 7 and 8. In that context, he profiles as a hit-or-miss fantasy option, especially with wideouts Ladd McConkey, Quentin Johnston (who had missed back-to-back contests) and Joshua Palmer slated to play Sunday.

Sits out Wednesday's practice
Dissly (shoulder) didn't practice Wednesday, Eric Smith of the Chargers' official site reports.
Analysis: Dissly missed practice last Wednesday and Thursday before returning to a limited session Friday and approaching the Chargers' Week 8 game against the Saints listed as questionable. The tight end was ultimately cleared to play in the 26-8 win, finishing with five catches for 41 yards on seven targets. With no reported setbacks with his shoulder, Dissly may have sat out Wednesday's practice for maintenance purposes.

Seven targets in Week 8
Dissly (shoulder) caught five of seven targets for 41 yards in Sunday's 26-8 win over the Saints.
Analysis: Dissly tied J.K. Dobbins for the team lead in targets, and the tight end has racked up 18 targets in the Chargers' last two games. The heavy usage is encouraging, but Dissly has yet to score a touchdown this season. He'll look to stay busy in Week 9 against the Browns.

Active versus New Orleans
Dissly (shoulder) is listed as active for Sunday's game versus the Saints.
Analysis: After returning to a limited practice Friday, Dissly approached the contest listed as questionable. With his Sunday availability confirmed and fellow TE Hayden Hurst (groin) inactive, Dissly -- who caught eight of his 11 targets for 81 yards in the Chargers' 17-15 loss to the Cardinals this past Monday -- offers a lineup option for those in need of tight-end help in Week 8.

Questionable for Sunday
Dissly (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's 4:05 p.m. ET game against the Saints after returning to a limited practice Friday.
Analysis: Meanwhile, fellow TE Hayden Hurst (groin) also is listed as questionable after logging limited sessions Thursday and Friday. In the Chargers' 17-15 loss to the Cardinals on Monday -- a game that Hurst missed -- Dissly caught eight of his 11 targets for 81 yards. On the heels of that effort, Dissly could merit deep league attention if he plays this weekend, but if Hurst also is available, neither player would be a high-percentage Week 8 lineup option.

Dissly (shoulder) didn't take part in Thursday's practice, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Dissly appeared on the Chargers' Week 7 injury report due to the same shoulder issue, but after logging a limited practice Thursday he put in full practices Friday and Saturday to clear the way for him to suit up Monday against the Cardinals. He proceeded to turn in a season-best line (eight catches for 81 yards on 11 targets) in the 17-15 win, but his shoulder injury may have worsened at some point along the way.

Sidelined to begin Week 8 prep
Dissly (shoulder) did not participate in Wednesday's practice session, Eric Smith of the Chargers' official site reports.
Analysis: Dissly is coming off a breakout performance against the Cardinals on Monday, when he recorded a career-high eight receptions (on 11 targets) for 81 yards. He was Justin Herbert's favorite target in the absence of wideout Quentin Johnston (ankle), but Dissly is still working through a shoulder injury that limited him in practice leading up to Monday's contest. Dissly will have two more chances to increase his practice activity ahead of the Chargers' Week 8 matchup with the Saints on Sunday.

Breakout performance in loss
Dissly secured eight of 11 targets for 81 yards in the Chargers' 17-15 loss to the Cardinals on Monday.
Analysis: Dissly led the Chargers in receptions, receiving yards and targets in what may have been his best all-around career performance. He had memorably recorded a 3-105-1 line in his NFL debut back in Week 1 of the 2018 season with the Seahawks, but the veteran was much more productive with respect to catches Monday night and was a key target for Justin Herbert throughout the game. Dissly had topped out at four catches and 29 yards in terms of single-game highs this season, however, and Monday…read more

Dissly (shoulder) practiced fully Friday.
Analysis: After being listed as limited on Thursday's practice estimate, Dissly worked in full a day later, which sets the stage for him to suit up Monday night against the Cardinals. With fellow TE Hayden Hurst (groin) logging another DNP listing Friday, Dissly -- who has recorded a 13-111-0 line on 15 targets in five contests -- could be in line to see a modest uptick in Week 7 opportunities if Hurst ends up unavailable versus Arizona.

Snares four receptions
Dissly caught four of his five targets for 26 yards in the 23-17 win over the Broncos on Sunday.
Analysis: Tight end platoon mate Hayden Hurst left the game in the first half due to a groin injury, allowing Dissly to tally season highs in route share and targets. Eric Tomlinson and Stone Smartt also played in the absence of Hurst, so it's not as if Dissly will get complete command of the tight end room if Hurst does miss time, but Los Angeles' limited passing tree could involve the Seattle transplant a bit more in the event Hurst misses more time.

Secures two catches in loss
Dissly caught two of his three targets for 24 yards in the 17-10 loss to Kansas City on Sunday.
Analysis: Hayden Hurst saw the bigger side of the tight end platoon this week, tallying 35 snaps compared to Dissly's 20, but it was the latter who had the marginally better fantasy day. Neither tight end is in a viable fantasy situation given the Chargers' preference to run the ball and rely on their defense to keep games close.

Targeted three times in loss
Dissly caught all three of his targets for 19 yards in Sunday's 20-10 loss to the Steelers.
Analysis: Dissly played 23 of the Chargers' offensive snaps Sunday while fellow tight end Hayden Hurst was on the field for 28 snaps. Neither tight end was able to get much going as the offense struggled to move the ball against the Steelers defense. While he's stuck in a timeshare at tight end with Hurst in a run-first offense, Dissly won't hold much fantasy appeal.

Three grabs against Panthers
Dissly caught all three of his targets for 29 yards in Sunday's 26-3 win over the Panthers.
Analysis: Dissly led all Chargers tight ends in catches Sunday while playing three fewer offensive snaps than teammate Hayden Hurst. The veteran did not produce much with his opportunities, and he'll likely continue to struggle to produce for fantasy purposes on a run-first team with several tight ends. Dissly and the Chargers are set to square off against the Steelers in Week 3.

One catch in win
Dissly caught his lone target for 13 yards in Sunday's 22-10 win over the Raiders.
Analysis: Dissly operated as the Chargers' second tight end in the contest, playing 25 of 57 offensive snaps Sunday. Teammate Hayden Hurst, however, was more involved in the game plan, as he played 35 snaps and saw three targets from quarterback Justin Herbert. If this type of usage were to continue, it would be difficult to trust Dissly to produce consistently for fantasy purposes. The veteran will have his next opportunity to be more involved in a Week 2 matchup against the Panthers.

Set to sign with Bolts
Dissly is slated to sign a three-year deal with the Chargers, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Pelissero relays that Dissly's pending contract is for $14 million, including $10 million guaranteed. With Gerald Everett in line to become a free agent, Dissly will bolster the Chargers' tight end corps in 2024, while providing the team with a reliable run-blocking option at the position. During the 2023 regular season, the 27-year-old recorded 17 catches (on 22 targets) for 172 yards and a touchdown over 16 games with the Seahawks, who he joined as a fourth-round draft pick in 2018.

Analysis: Dissly had the worst statistical season of his career, as he failed to find the end zone until Week 18 and never caught more than three balls in a game. The Washington product has one year left on his contract with a cap hit of $10.1 million.

Analysis: Dissly caught his first pass since Week 6, as the sixth-year tight end now has just eight receptions for 78 yards and no touchdowns through eight games.

Analysis: The exact nature of Dissly's injury is unclear, as it was termed a contusion by Pete Carroll. However, Dissly was placed on injured reserve Tuesday, and the possibility of surgery suggests that the issue could be more severe.

Hits IR with knee contusion
Seattle placed Dissly on injured reserve Tuesday with an injury head coach Pete Carroll has labeled as a knee contusion, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Though Dissly's injury doesn't sound especially serious, his 2022 campaign will come to an end unless the Seahawks secure a playoff spot and make an improbable run to the NFC Championship Game. The 26-year-old appeared in 15 games this season, recording 34 receptions for 349 yards and three touchdowns on 38 targets. Dissly's absence for the final two games should free up more snaps for Colby Parkinson, who steps in as Seattle's No. 2 tight end behind Noah Fant.

Getting knee checked out
Head coach Pete Carroll said Monday that Dissly banged his knee during Saturday's 24-10 loss to the Chiefs and is set to undergo further testing, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: The knee issue may in part explain why Dissly logged just 38 percent of the snaps on offense -- his lowest share of the season -- Week 16 to finish the day with a 19-yard reception on his lone target. Dissly's upcoming tests should provide a clearer picture of his injury while also helping to clarify whether he'll be available for the Seahawks' Week 17 matchup with the Jets.

Dissly caught two of three targets for 20 yards in Sunday's 30-24 loss to the Panthers.
Analysis: Dissly was limited during the practice week due to a calf injury, and he appeared to be held back during Sunday's game, as he handled a season-low 40 percent snap share.

Analysis: Dissly is taking an injury designation into the weekend after he failed to practice Wednesday before returning to the field as a limited participant Thursday and Friday, but it sounds like the restrictions he faced were mostly for precautionary reasons. Assuming he avoids the inactive list ahead of Sunday's 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff, Dissly should continue to work in a timeshare at tight end with Noah Fant. Though Fant held the edge in playing time in last week's win over the Rams, Dissly was still…read more

Gets Week 14 questionable tag
Dissly (calf) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Panthers, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Dissly will carry an injury designation into the weekend after he failed to practice Wednesday before upgrading to a limited showing Thursday. Since he was able to conclude Week 14 prep on the practice field, Dissly would seem to have a good chance at playing this weekend, but an official ruling on his status won't come until Seattle unveils its inactive list approximately 90 minutes prior to the 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff. If Dissly can't go Sunday, Noah Fant would have a clear path to the No. 1…read more

Logs limited session Thursday
Dissly (calf) was a limited participant in the Seahawks' practice Thursday, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Dissly popped up with a calf issue on Seattle's injury report Wednesday, thus failing to practice for the first time this season. It's encouraging to see the 26-year-old was able to increase his activity the following day. However, his status on Friday's final injury report will provide a better outlook for his availability heading into Sunday against Carolina. Dissly has seen slightly fewer targets (33) than fellow tight end Noah Fant (46) over 12 games this season, and these two should strike…read more

Sits out practice Wednesday
Dissly was a non-participant at Wednesday's practice due to a calf injury, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Dissly hasn't had any prior practice limitations this season and earns better than 50 percent of the snaps most weeks, resulting in between one and four catches per game through 12 contests. Overall, he has a modest 30-297-3 receiving line on 33 targets. Considering Dissly wasn't able to take part in drills to kick off this week, his status will be watched as the weekend approaches to get a sense of his availability for Sunday's matchup with the Panthers.

Snares two passes
Dissly caught both of his targets for 22 yards in Sunday's 27-23 win over the Rams.
Analysis: Dissly and fellow tight end Noah Fant typically handle the same snap count in any given week, but Fant has been more productive as a receiver this year, especially lately. Over the last eight games, Fant has posted a 27-326-1 line on 35 targets while Dissly has registered an 18-181-0 line on 21 targets.

Held to 17 yards
Dissly caught two of three targets for 17 yards in Sunday's 40-34 overtime loss to the Raiders.
Analysis: Dissly logged 48 of 65 offensive snaps (74 percent) while Noah Fant trailed closely behind with 40 snaps. Fant finished with three catches for 34 yards. Dissly hasn't scored since Week 4, and he has yet to record more than 45 yards in a game this year.

Brings in two passes
Dissly caught both of his targets for 28 yards in Sunday's 21-16 loss to the Buccaneers.
Analysis: Dissly handled a season-low 21 percent of the offensive snaps, which wasn't far behind Noah Fant (26). The Seahawks frequently utilize two tight-end sets, but they limited their tight-end usage because they were trailing most of the game. Regardless, fantasy managers shouldn't have high expectations for Dissly on a weekly basis, as he has put up a 26-258-3 line through 10 games.

Rings up 24 yards
Dissly caught three of four targets for 24 yards in Sunday's 31-21 win over the Cardinals.
Analysis: Dissly and Noah Fant both played 42 offensive snaps, but Fant capitalized on the opportunity with five catches for a team-high 96 yards. Head coach Pete Carroll continues to roll out offensive personnel that features two or three tight ends, so Dissly's playing time should be secure all season. However, his fantasy value continues to depend on whether he can find the end zone, as the fifth-year tight end has yet to record more than 45 receiving yards in a game this year.

Hauls in two passes
Dissly caught both of his targets for 12 yards in Sunday's 27-13 win over the Giants. He also recovered a fumble in punt coverage.
Analysis: Dissly played 50 of the team's 64 offensive snaps (78 percent), finishing ahead of Noah Fant (46 snaps) and Colby Parkinson (23). While Dissly isn't a dependable fantasy option, he has caught 21 passes for 206 yards and three touchdowns this season, so he can yield DFS dividends when he finds the end zone.

Four catches against Chargers
Dissly caught all four of his targets for 45 yards in Sunday's 37-23 win over the Chargers.
Analysis: The tight end didn't post huge numbers, but he tied for second on Seattle in both receptions and receiving yards. Dissly also tied his season highs in catches and targets while setting a new season high in yards, topping his 43 yards from the Seahawks' opener. However, that modest production makes him little more than a TD-dependent fantasy option heading into a Week 8 clash with the Giants.

One catch in win
Dissly caught his lone target for 12 yards in Sunday's 19-9 win over the Cardinals.
Analysis: Dissly narrowly out-snapped Noah Fant in Week 6, but Fant ended up leading the Seahawks with six catches for 45 yards. It has been difficult to trust either tight end this season, as they're both touchdown-dependent fantasy options. Fortunately, Dissly has found the end zone three times through six games.

Analysis: Dissly has yet to catch more than three passes in a game. He has registered 14 catches for 137 yards and three touchdowns through five weeks and has been been out-snapping fellow tight end Noah Fant. Dissly will be a touchdown-dependent fantasy option as long as his usage stays at this level.

Analysis: Dissly got open down the seam for a 17-yard scoring grab in the first quarter to ignite the scoring on a prolific afternoon both teams' offenses. Dissly has shown some chemistry early with Geno Smith, now having recorded at least three catches and a touchdown grab in three of the first four games of the season.

Analysis: Dissly scored for the second time in three weeks, and he led all Seahawks tight ends with 43 offensive snaps (61 percent). He has outplayed Noah Fant so far with eight catches for 77 yards and two scores. Dissly is a touchdown-dependent fantasy option.

Two catches in loss
Dissly caught both of his targets for no gain in Sunday's 27-7 loss to the 49ers.
Analysis: After producing 43 yards and a touchdown in Week 1, Dissly regressed and actually handled less playing time than Noah Fant. Dissly played 23 offensive snaps while Fant logged 26 snaps. The two will continue to split snaps going forward, and it will be difficult to rely on either player in fantasy.

Scores first touchdown of MNF
Dissly caught all three of his targets for 43 yards and a touchdown in Monday's 17-16 win over the Broncos.
Analysis: On the first drive of the game, Geno Smith found a wide-open Dissly on third down for a 38-yard score, giving the Seahawks a lead that they never gave up. Dissly ended up tying fellow tight end Colby Parkinson for the team lead in receiving yards, while Noah Fant finished with three catches for 16 yards. It will be hard to trust Dissly in season-long fantasy leagues, but he has touchdown upside in DFS formats when he gets a favorable matchup.

Plays eight snaps in preseason loss
Dissly wasn't targeted in Thursday's 27-11 preseason loss to the Bears.
Analysis: Dissly didn't play in the preseason opener and handled just eight total snaps in Thursday's loss. Meanwhile, fellow tight end Noah Fant has combined for 36 offensive snaps over the last two weeks. It's difficult to get a read on this situation, but it's likely Fant is simply getting more reps because he's unfamiliar with the new offense. Both Dissly and Fant should have consistent roles when Week 1 arrives, though the former is still expected to focus on blocking more than receiving.

Signs three-year deal with Seattle
Dissly is signing a three-year contract with the Seahawks, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: The 2018 fourth-round pick will stick with the only team he's ever played for, presumably working as the No. 2 TE in a blocking-focused role. Dissly did show some receiving chops early in his career, but he's never been especially fast and hasn't made as much of an impact in the passing game since he suffered major injuries his first two seasons in the NFL. He isn't likely to have much fantasy value behind fellow tight end Noah Fant, who is headed from Denver to Seattle as part of the Russell…read more

Off COVID-19 list
The Seahawks activated Dissly (illness) from the reserve/COVID-19 list Tuesday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Dissly found himself on the COVID-19 list last Wednesday due to a positive test that forced him to miss this past Sunday's loss to the Bears. Now that he's back on the active roster, he can set his sights on setting new career highs in catches (he needs five more) and receiving yards (he needs 40 more) over the final two contests of the campaign.

Seattle placed Dissly on the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: The 25-year-old was placed on the list after testing positive for the virus, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Gerald Everett and/or Colby Parkinson should pick up more snaps if Dissly isn't available this Sunday against Chicago. The 265-pound tight end typically plays around half or more of Seattle's offensive snaps, but he hasn't seen more than four targets in a game all season.

Dissly caught his lone target for three yards in Tuesday's 20-10 loss to the Rams.
Analysis: Dissly finished with a 46-percent snap share, trailing fellow tight end Gerald Everett (84 percent) by a significant margin. With just 223 receiving yards through 14 games, Dissly shouldn't be on fantasy radars, especially with Everett seemingly ahead of him in the pecking order.

Season-high 38 yards

Analysis: Dissly recorded a 68 percent snap share, out-snapping Gerald Everett (61 percent) for the first time since Week 6. It's unclear if this will be the standard moving forward, but the Seahawks will likely lean on Everett more in negative game scripts. Dissly maintains limited fantasy appeal with 19 receptions for 220 yards and a touchdown through 13 games.

Targetless in preseason debut
Dissly played 10 snaps in Saturday's 27-0 preseason win over the Chargers.
Analysis: Dissly has a locked-in role as the team's best blocking tight end, and the only reason he played Saturday was because the Seahawks only have a few healthy tight ends. Gerald Everett also played and caught his lone target for two yards.

Dissly caught both his targets for 23 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 40-3 win over the Jets.
Analysis: Dissly found the end zone for the second time since rupturing his Achilles in Week 6 of the 2019 season. He continues to look more comfortable on the field, and he likely would've played more than 49 percent of the snaps if coach Pete Carroll didn't rest his starters in the fourth quarter.

Hollister did little with the looks however, turning them into two receptions for 11 yards.

Just one catch again
Dissly caught one of two targets for 16 yards in Sunday's 23-16 loss to the Rams.
Analysis: Greg Olsen regained control as the No. 1 tight end in this outing, with Dissly as a close No. 2 with a 36 percent snap share. Dissly has yet to catch more than two passes or surpass 38 receiving yards in a game this year, and he has just one touchdown. There's major fantasy ambiguity at the position, as three different players have led the group in snaps in each of the last three games. Therefore, Dissly's fantasy value is reserved for dynasty settings.

Generates 26 yards
Dissly caught his lone target for 26 yards in Sunday's 44-34 loss to the Bills.
Analysis: Dissly finally surpassed Greg Olsen in snap share last week, but his usage nosedived against the Bills, as he finished third among Seahawks tight ends at 32 percent. Jacob Hollister ended up leading the group and finished with five receptions for 60 yards. Hollister is a crafty tight end in his own right, so this trend could continue, although it's been a fool's errand to predict a fantasy-relevant tight end in Seattle all year.

Hauls in one pass
Dissly caught a 17-yard pass on his lone target in Sunday's 37-27 win over the 49ers.
Analysis: Meanwhile, Greg Olsen failed to catch any of his four targets Sunday. Dissly played more than the veteran, too, recording a 63-percent snap share while Olsen played 54 percent of those plays. It's possible that the Seahawks' injury-riddled backfield factored into Dissly's playing time, but he's been trending in this direction for weeks and could maintain this role moving forward. Dissly run blocks on a good chunk of his snaps, though, and as long as Olsen is on board, his fantasy upside is…read more

Snap count rising
Dissly caught two of four targets for 38 yards in Sunday's 37-34 loss to the Cardinals.
Analysis: This was Dissly's season-high for receiving yardage, but more importantly, he logged 58 percent of the offensive workload, his highest mark of the year. Meanwhile, veteran tight end Greg Olsen played 62 percent of snaps and recorded two receptions for 18 yards. Olsen is running more routes than Dissly, but it's worth noting that Dissly is still getting comfortable after his 2019 season ended with a torn Achilles. If Dissly's workload continues to increase, he could be worth a flier in fantasy…read more

Resumes practicing in full
Dissly (Achilles) was a full participant in Thursday's practice, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Dissly began the week with a limited session Wednesday, as has been standard this season for load limit purposes. Upgrading to full practice reps Thursday serves as an indication that Dissly is fully on track to play his usual rotational role behind Greg Olsen during Sunday's divisional matchup against the Cardinals.

Limited again Wednesday
Dissly (Achilles) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Analysis: Limited sessions to begin practice weeks have been the norm for Dissly this season, as the Seahawks look to manage the tight end's workload after he suffered a torn Achilles' tendon in 2019. He should be good to go in Sunday's game versus the Cardinals, filling a depth role behind starter Greg Olsen.

Hauls in first TD of 2020
Dissly caught a 19-yard touchdown pass in Sunday's 27-26 win over the Vikings.
Analysis: Dissly was targeted just once during Sunday's NFC showdown, but he capitalized, beating a linebacker in the end zone and reeling in the ball for his first score since Week 4 of the 2019 season. It's excellent to see Dissly find paydirt after suffering two brutal injuries during his first two years in the league, but his opportunities are still quite scarce. Dissly played just 20 of 54 offensive snaps (37 percent) while Greg Olsen logged a 45 percent snap share. It's worth keeping an eye on…read more

Ready for Week 5
Dissly (Achilles) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Vikings, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: The 24-year-old was a limited practice participant to start the week due to the Achilles issue, but he'll continue to play through the injury. Dissly has caught all seven targets for 37 yards through four games.

Limited again Thursday
Dissly (Achilles) was a limited practice participant Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Dissly's practice reps have been capped on occasion this season, but his status for game days has been cleared ahead of all four contests. Friday's injury report likely will do the same, but if it doesn't Jacob Hollister and Luke Willson could be poised for larger workloads behind starting tight end Greg Olsen on Sunday against the Vikings.

Puts in limited practice
Dissly (Achilles) was limited at Wednesday's practice, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Dissly has been a regular on Seahawks injury reports this season with an Achilles issue, likely a residual effect of his season-ending injury from October 2019. His production has been next to none this season, as he's managed no more than two catches or 15 yards in any given game. Expect Dissly to continue working behind Greg Olsen on game days.

Registers 15 yards
Dissly caught both of his targets for 15 yards in Sunday's 31-23 win over the Dolphins.
Analysis: This was a season-high yardage tally for Dissly, who is coming off an Achilles tear and is lined up as the No. 2 tight end behind Greg Olsen. Dissly appears to be closing the gap in usage, as he played 43 percent of the snaps Sunday while Olsen logged a season-low 56 percent, the Seahawks are utilizing Dissly in more as a blocker than a pass catcher. That could change as he gets more comfortable on the field, but the upside is low considering the high target shares for Tyler Lockett and DK…read more

Logs full practice Thursday
Dissly (Achilles) practiced fully Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Dissly has had his practice reps capped on occasion this season, the result of his season-ending Achilles injury from October 2019. After logging a limited session Wednesday, he's back to full capacity as the Seahawks prepare to host the Dolphins on Sunday. Dissly, who is a distant second to Greg Olsen in offensive snap share this year -- 42.8 versus 66.7 percent -- has hauled in all five of his targets through three games to date for 22 yards and no touchdowns.

Practices with limitations
Dissly (Achilles) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Dissly was listed with the same injury ahead of the Seahawks' Week 3 win over the Cowboys, a game in which he logged 40 percent of the offensive snaps. The Seahawks are simply limiting his workload after the tight end tore his Achilles' tendon early last season. His injury status shouldn't concern fantasy managers too much, however, as he's recorded just five receptions for 22 yards through three games.

Registers just five yards
Dissly caught both targets for five yards in Sunday's 38-31 win over the Cowboys.
Analysis: Dissly is the clear No. 2 TE behind Greg Olsen, as he's played about 40 percent of snaps through three games. The Seahawks' shift to a pass-heavy approach hasn't benefited Dissly, however. He's caught all five targets this year for just 22 yards, and none of those have come in the red zone. Fantasy managers hoping for sleeper potential with Dissly can confidently jump ship.

Good to go
Dissly (Achilles) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against Dallas, Curtis Crabtree of Sports Radio 950 KJR Seattle reports.
Analysis: The Seahawks have limited Dissly's practice workload to help him work his way back from last year's Achilles tear. He was never in real danger of missing the upcoming game, but he's been working in a secondary role behind veteran tight end Greg Olsen.

Limited again Thursday
Dissly (Achilles) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Dissly, who had previously been fully cleared ahead of Week 1, has now logged back-to-back limited practice sessions. The third-year pro suffered a ruptured Achilles' tendon last October, so it's possible that the Seahawks are simply being cautious with his practice activity, but it's worrying to see him on the injury report in any capacity. Greg Olsen is already working as Seattle's top tight end, so he would get a slight bump in opportunities if Dissly were forced to handle less snaps or even…read more

Dissly (Achilles) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: This is Dissly's first appearance on the injury report since being fully cleared ahead of Week 1. His presence on the report is slightly concerning considering he ruptured his Achilles' tendon Week 6 last season, as the injury could be flaring up despite successful rehab. If Dissly is forced to miss any time, Greg Olsen would get a slight bump as the clear No. 1 tight end, but the Seahawks could opt to use fewer less two-tight end sets. That could create more opportunities for depth wideouts…read more

Largely uninvolved against Pats
Dissly caught his only target for a nine-yard gain during Sunday's 35-30 win against New England.
Analysis: The 2018 fourth-round draft choice showed immediate promise as a rookie, racking up six catches for 147 yards and two touchdowns over his first two career outings. A knee injury ended that campaign after Dissly made four appearances, however. Last year he came out firing again, racking up five-plus catches and a touchdown in three of six appearances before suffering a season-ending Achilles injury. Perhaps slowed by the damage his body has taken over the past two seasons, Dissly is off to a…read more

Snags two passes
Dissly caught both targets for eight yards in Sunday's 38-25 win over the Falcons.
Analysis: When Dissly returned from a patellar tear last season, the Seahawks eased him into action, and they're following the same path this season. The third-year tight end played 25 of 62 offensive snaps (40 percent) and wasn't a fixture in the passing game, while Greg Olsen logged 41 snaps and hauled in four passes for 24 yards and a touchdown. Dissly could take some of Olsen's snaps if he stays healthy and proves he's still the tight end that posted 23-262-4 through five games last season.

Cleared for return
Dissly (Achilles) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game in Atlanta, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Making his way back from last year's Achilles tear, Dissly was added to the injury report Thursday as a limited participant, but he's apparently good to go for the season opener. It isn't clear he'll have a significant role on offense, considering the Seahawks gave Greg Olsen a one-year, $7 million contract this past offseason. That said, Dissly certainly looked like more than a role player prior to his season-ending injuries the past two years, producing 10.2 YPT and six touchdowns on 41…read more

Dissly (Achilles) was limited during Thursday's practice, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Analysis: Dissly wasn't listed on Wednesday's first injury report of the season, but he's still feeling residual effects of the Achilles' tear he sustained last October. With all of Greg Olsen, Jacob Hollister and Luke Willson in house, the Seahawks could opt to ease Dissly back into action even if he's cleared to suit up in Atlanta on Sunday.

Sidesteps injury report
Dissly (Achilles) isn't listed on the Seahawks' injury report Wednesday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Dissly has been in recovery mode since tearing his left Achilles on Oct. 13 last season, his second serious injury in as many seasons as a pro. For the second year in a row, he'll be available from the outset of the campaign. The Seahawks may opt to ease him into action Sunday in Atlanta, and he has healthy competition for snaps from fellow tight ends Greg Olsen, Jacob Hollister and Luke Willson. However, Dissly's nose for the end zone is evident, as he has six touchdowns on 31 catches across…read more

Dissly (Achilles) wore pads during Tuesday's practice.
Analysis: Dissly tore his Achilles in Week 6 last year and has been diligently rehabbing since then. He passed a physical in early August and has been easing into practices, and while there haven't been reports that Dissly has taken contact yet, participating in padded practice is a big step.

Seahawks coach Pete Carroll confirmed Monday that Dissly (Achilles) passed his physical, but the tight end is still expected to be eased along carefully during training camp, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Though Carroll has been encouraged by how Dissly has fared in his recovery from the torn Achilles' tendon he suffered nine months earlier, the Seahawks aren't inclined to rush the 24-year-old while he returns from his second major lower-body injury in as many years. Perhaps due to a lack of confidence in how Dissly's comeback effort might play out, the Seahawks pumped significant resources into their tight-end room this offseason by signing veteran Greg Olsen, re-signing Cody Hollister and Luke…read more

Expects to be ready for Week 1
The Seahawks "fully expect" Dissly (Achilles) to be healthy in time for Week 1 of the 2020 season, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Dissly suffered a torn Achilles' tendon in early October, marking the second consecutive campaign in which he sustained a season-ending injury. Though the 23-year-old still has a long road ahead in his recovery, he appears to be making significant progress and has a real shot at returning to full health in time for the 2020 opener. With Seattle having inked veteran tight end Greg Olsen to a one-year deal, however, Dissly could have to settle for a smaller role than he enjoyed the past two…read more

Competition arrives in Seattle
Dissly (Achilles) is in danger of losing his No. 1 tight-end job after Greg Olsen signed with the Seahawks, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Dissly seems to be making solid progress in his recovery, and it's possible that he'll be ready for Week 1. Still, with back-to-back, season-ending injuries -- he suffered a patella tear in 2018 -- over his first two years in the league, there are legitimate questions about whether he can return to his former production. The 23-year-old tight end has recorded 418 receiving yards and six touchdowns over 10 career games, and even if he gets back to full strength, Olsen's arrival lowers Dissly's…read more

Making progress in recovery
Coach Pete Carroll said Dissly is recovering well from the torn Achilles he suffered in Week 6, Andy Patton of USA Today reports. "He's killing the rehab. [Dissly] is doing great," Carroll said. "But, it's a long process, it's going to be some tough work for him."
Analysis: Dissly suffered a season-ending injury for the second time in his two-year career when he tore his Achilles in Week 6. In the tight end's rookie campaign, he sustained a torn patellar tendon. Dissly beat that expected recovery timeline and showed no ill effects in his return to action, recording 23 receptions for 262 yards and four touchdowns over six games. He was one of Russell Wilson's top targets, and he was a weekly fantasy starter. A torn Achilles usually takes around a year to recover…read more
