Ends regular season on high note

Lockett hauled in both targets for 66 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's win over the Cardinals.

Analysis: Lockett went three straight games without a touchdown, but he finally found paydirt in the regular-season finale with a 29-yard catch in the first quarter to mark 10 scores for the year -- more than his first three campaigns combined. He also set career highs in receptions (57) and receiving yards (965) this season, and he continues to establish himself as a deep threat with 15 catches over 20 yards and six over 40. Lockett won't command major looks in any outing -- he didn't have more than…read more

Falls behind Baldwin

Lockett caught four of five targets for 99 yards and zero touchdowns in Sunday's win over the Chiefs.

Analysis: Lockett posted his second-most receiving yards of the season but failed to reach the end zone for the third straight game despite scoring in nine of the first 12 contests. He's clearly playing second fiddle again to Doug Baldwin, who made seven catches on 12 targets for 126 yards and a score in this outing. Nevertheless, Lockett is within reach of his first 1,000-yard season if he can pile up over 101 yards in Week 17 versus the Cardinals.

Disappointing performance

Lockett hauled in both targets for 45 yards in Sunday's overtime loss to the 49ers. He also rushed once for 11 yards.

Analysis: This is the third straight week Lockett has been kept below 53 yards and the second straight without a touchdown. The fourth-year pro lives off the deep ball as he has 15.4 yards per catch this season, ranking ninth among receivers with more than 40 receptions. That boom-or-bust mentality hinders Lockett's fantasy value if he doesn't find the end zone since he's averaging just 3.5 catches per game. Lockett will look to get back in the saddle in Week 16 versus the Chiefs, who have the league's…read more

Hauls in five passes

Lockett caught five of his six targets for 42 yards and no touchdowns in Monday's win over the Vikings. He also lost three yards on two carries.

Analysis: The Seahawks were stymied by a tough defense, and Lockett wasn't immune. His longest catch was 14 yards as Russell Wilson couldn't connect with him on deep throws, but Lockett drew an important pass interference in the fourth quarter that brought the Seahawks into the red zone and set up an eventual field goal. It was just the fourth time in 13 games Lockett failed to score a touchdown, but he did provide fantasy owners with some solace by reeling in a two-point conversion. The Seahawks will…read more

Big plays only

Lockett hauled in one of two targets for a 52-yard touchdown in Sunday's win over the 49ers. He also rushed once for 10 yards.

Analysis: Lockett is a feared deep threat, so when the 49ers placed a linebacker on him in coverage, Russell Wilson knew where to go. He chucked up a bomb that Lockett slowed down for and collected for his ninth touchdown of the year. Lockett flashed his explosiveness again to begin the second half, taking the kickoff 84 yards to the 49ers' 20-yard line, setting up a Rashaad Penny score on the next play. Lockett is averaging 3.7 receptions and 59.5 receiving yards per game, so his fantasy value remains…read more

Comes in clutch against Panthers

Lockett caught all five targets for 107 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's win over the Panthers.

Analysis: Lockett hauled in a 12-yard touchdown pass on the goal line during Seattle's first possession of the second half to take the lead. With the game tied at 27 with just over a minute to play in regulation, Lockett streaked down the right sideline and snagged a 43-yard pass to put the team in field-goal range, setting up Sebastian Janikowski to nail the game-winning kick. This was Lockett's first 100-yard game since Week 7 last season, and it's his eighth touchdown of the year. The Seahawks host…read more

Records 71 receiving yards

Lockett caught all five targets for 71 yards in Thursday's 27-24 win over the Packers.

Analysis: Lockett caught two passes (combining for 34 yards) for first downs on the Seahawks' game-winning drive, but he failed to find the end zone for the second time in four weeks. Although Lockett led the team in receiving yards, teammate Doug Baldwin is getting healthier (logging 10 targets in this matchup) and could cut into Lockett's production moving forward. Looking ahead to Week 12, Lockett will face the Panthers, who have allowed 22 passing scores this year.

Returns to end zone

Lockett caught five of six targets for 67 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 36-31 loss to the Rams. He also rushed once for 18 yards.

Analysis: Lockett is a mediocre fantasy asset without finding the paydirt, but he got there for the seventh time this year. Lockett also paced the team in targets, tying running back Mike Davis. He'll look to continue the success against a Packers team that has allowed just three touchdowns to wideouts over the last three weeks.

Posts 22 receiving yards

Lockett caught three of four targets for 22 yards in Sunday's 25-17 loss to the Chargers.

Analysis: Lockett's value has been dependent on touchdowns, but this can still be considered a breakout campaign: He has 416 receiving yards at the halfway point of the season. The downfield threat has also tied a career high with six scores and will look to get back on track in Week 10 against the Rams.

Snags sixth TD of season

Lockett caught two passes on two targets for 34 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 28-14 win over the Lions. He rushed twice for 13 yards.

Analysis: Lockett still hasn't surpassed five receptions or 100 receiving yards through seven games, so his fantasy value has been touchdown-dependent. Luckily for fantasy owners, he has six scores through seven games. He'll face the Chargers at home in Week 9.

Salvages dud with insurance touchdown

Lockett caught three of four targets for 13 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-3 win over the Raiders. He also ran for seven yards.

Analysis: Lockett was a dud for three quarters, but he caught a 10-yard touchdown pass five seconds into the fourth quarter to give fantasy owners consolidation. He fell behind Doug Baldwin, who caught six of eight targets for a team-high 91 yards but no score. The team will enter a Week 7 bye week.

Scores long touchdown

Lockett caught three of five targets for 98 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 33-31 loss to the Rams.

Analysis: Russell Wilson only attempted 21 passes but hooked up with Lockett on a couple of pretty deep tosses, including a 39-yard touchdown and 44-yard reception. Seattle's ground attack has been productive in each of the last three games, limiting Lockett's opportunities, but he remains WIlson's most trusted deep threat -- if not receiver, in general, with Doug Baldwin easing back into action. In Week 6, the speedy wideout will face the Raiders.

Doesn't score for first time this year

Lockett caught five of six targets for 53 yards and zero touchdowns in Sunday's 20-17 win over the Cardinals.

Analysis: This was the first time this season that Lockett failed to find paydirt. On the bright side, Doug Baldwin returned from a knee injury, but Lockett didn't see a drop in targets. The fourth-year pro is still on pace for his best season yet, but he'll face a tough Rams defense Week 5.

Scores again

Lockett caught four of six passes for 77 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-13 win over the Cowboys.

Analysis: Lockett was having a quiet first half but scored on a somewhat wide-open 52-yard touchdown when the Cowboys blew their coverage before halftime. For the third straight game, Lockett scored, and he has seen a respectable 17 targets overall. Doug Baldwin (knee) remains out of the lineup, so Lockett should continue to lead Seattle in most receiving categories. The speedy wideout will face Arizona on the road Week 4.

Finds end zone again

Lockett caught five of seven targets for 60 yards and a touchdown in Monday night's 24-17 loss to the Bears.

Analysis: Lockett's performance was highlighted by an excellent 19-yard grab in the back corner of the end zone to bring Seattle within a touchdown during the fourth quarter. That catch gave Lockett two scores in as many appearances this season, already matching his 2017 total. In leading the Seahawks in all major receiving categories Monday, Lockett continued to take advantage of Doug Baldwin (knee) being sidelined.

Finds paydirt in fourth quarter

Lockett caught three passes for 59 yards and one touchdown on four targets during Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Broncos.

Analysis: Lockett showed off his deep-ball skills, hauling in a 51-yard bomb in the fourth quarter to put Seattle ahead. He accrued just eight yards on his other two catches. The 25-year-old will slot in as the team's No. 1 wide receiver until Doug Baldwin recovers from a sprained MCL that he suffered during Sunday's game. Lockett will have another tough test against the Bears in Week 2.

Healthy for Week 1

Lockett isn't listed on the initial injury report for Sunday's game against the Broncos, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Analysis: Lockett missed the final three weeks of the preseason with a foot injury that was never believed to be serious. The lack of concern was supported by Seattle's decision to sign the wideout to a three-year, $31.8 million extension in late August. Lockett enters the season as the team's clear-cut No. 2 wide receiver, hoping to help fill the target void left by the offseason departures of Jimmy Graham and Paul Richardson. With top wideout Doug Baldwin and Broncos cornerback Chris Harris likely to…read more

Gets three-year extension

Lockett (foot) agreed Wednesday with the Seahawks on a three-year contract extension with a base value of $31.8 million, including $20 million guaranteed, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

Analysis: Heading into the final year of his rookie deal, Lockett is now signed through 2021 on a contract with a maximum value of $37.8 million. It's a big commitment for a player with career averages of 2.9 catches and 39 receiving yards per game, but the Seahawks aren't wrong for thinking the 25-year-old has untapped upside, not to mention the crucial role he fills on special teams as the top return man for both kickoffs and punts. Lockett has only missed one game in three seasons, but the Seahawks…read more

Doesn't suit up Friday

Lockett (foot) didn't play in Friday's preseason game against the Vikings after being expected to.

Analysis: Lockett hasn't played since making one catch for 14 yards in the preseason opener against the Colts. In the meantime, Jaron Brown has showed his deep-ball abilities, Brandon Marshall may have carved himself a red-zone role and David Moore looked natural as a returner. There's still plenty of room for Lockett to be a solid fantasy asset, but he's not the clear-cut No. 2 WR he was two weeks ago.

Expected to play Friday

Lockett (foot) is expected to play in Friday's preseason game against the Vikings, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.

Analysis: Lockett missed last week's preseason game against the Chargers with a minor injury he sustained as a result of another player stepping on his foot. However, it looks like he'll be back in action Friday on a night he should serve as Russell Wilson's top target, as Doug Baldwin is out nursing a knee injury.

Won't play Saturday

Lockett will miss Saturday's preseason game against the Chargers while recovering from a sore toe, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Analysis: A previous report said Lockett was accidentally kicked in the leg, but it seems he may have actually had his toe stepped on. Either way, Seahawks coach Pete Carroll said the injury isn't serious, so it shouldn't come as any surprise if Lockett returns for the third week of the preseason. With Doug Baldwin (knee) also unavailable, Saturday's game should provide a nice opportunity for a bunch of wide receivers to get playing time with Russell Wilson.

Dealing with leg injury

Lockett (leg) isn't practicing Thursday, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.

Analysis: During Wednesday's session, Lockett was kicked in the leg, hence the reason for his absence. The extent of the injury is unknown, but coming so close to the Seahawks' next preseason game Saturday doesn't bode well for an appearance. With Doug Baldwin (knee) likely out until the regular season, Lockett is the acting No. 1 receiver due to his experience within the offense and a relatively weak positional group.

Limited action in preseason opener

Lockett posted one reception for 14 yards in Thursday's 19-17 preseason loss to the Colts.

Analysis: Lockett didn't have many chances to shine with just one target, but it could be a big season for him after Jimmy Graham and Paul Richardson departed for the Packers and Redskins, respectively. The fourth-year pro mustered 45 receptions for 555 yards and two touchdowns in 2017, but his role could be affected again by incoming wideouts Brandon Marshall and Jaron Brown.

Lockett finally appears to be fully recovered from the broken leg he sustained in Dec. 2016, Bob Condotta of the Seattle Times reports. "It's really been a blessing for [Lockett] to be able to get his legs back underneath him,'' head coach Pete Carroll said Thursday. "Last year was a struggle for him. The offseason for certain, but throughout the season itself he was not able to do things in the same manner that he had done it in years past. And that's really just workload. He just couldn't do as much, had to take care of his legs more. So he's back at it, he's really playing fast, he has no restrictions of any kind or after-effects of the surgery of last year."

Analysis: According to Carroll, it was "obvious" that Lockett wasn't playing at 100 percent in 2017, despite the receiver being healthy enough to suit up for all 16 games. We'd agree, as Lockett not only seemed less explosive, but his efficiency in the stat sheet took a hit -- Lockett averaged career lows in yards per target (7.8) and yards per reception (12.3) last season after recording 9.3 YPT and 13.7 YPC over 135 looks during his first pair of pro campaigns. Now healthy, Lockett has an opportunity…read more

Lockett had an inconsistent and ultimately disappointing season, finishing with 45 receptions for 555 yards and two touchdowns.

Analysis: Lockett had less than 40 yards in 12 games, finishing with two games of double-digit fantasy points in non-PPR leagues. His 12.3 yards per catch and 7.8 yards per target are both career lows, and after six TD receptions as a rookie, he's totaled three the last two years. Lockett's future with the Seahawks seemingly hinges on whether the team re-signs free agent Paul Richardson. Both speedsters have similar skill sets, and Richardson overtook the starting job as the No. 2 receiver this year,…read more

Lockett caught two of three targets for eight yards during Sunday's 42-7 loss to the Rams.

Analysis: Well, it was fun while it lasted. Lockett started the season on an 11-game scoreless streak but had scored in back-to-back games heading into Sunday. The diminutive dynamo has taken a back seat in Seattle's offense this season with just two touchdowns and two games of at least 75 yards. He might get luckier this week as Seattle takes on a Dallas defense ranked 26th in the league in opponent receiving touchdowns with 1.86 per game.

Lockett brought in four of five targets for 90 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 30-24 loss to the Jaguars. He also rushed once for 10 yards, returned four kickoffs for 85 yards and netted five yards on three punt returns.

Analysis: Lockett enjoyed his best day from scrimmage since Week 8, and his 74-yard touchdown reception with 3:42 remaining brought the Seahawks to within 30-23. The catch was Lockett's longest of the season as well, and he's posted both of his receiving touchdowns on the season over the last pair of contests. Lockett's production still remains hard to trust, but his big-play upside can certainly emerge in any given week. He'll look to build on Sunday's performance against the Rams in Week 15.

Lockett caught both of his targets for 17 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 24-10 win over Philadelphia.

Analysis: Lockett put Seattle up by two scores in the third quarter when he worked his way across the field on a short crosser and was found by a scrambling Russell Wilson for a one-yard score. It was Lockett's first touchdown of the season, and it might take a little while for him to get his next one. Lockett has, for the most part, been quiet this season with the emergence of Paul Richardson. He also seems to be getting a little competition from tight end Nick Vannett, who has caught multiple passes in…read more

Lockett was held without a catch on just one target

Analysis: Lockett was held without a catch twice each of the last two years. Sunday's bagel was his first this year. Quarterback Russell Wilson spread his targets to eight receivers, which probably impacted Lockett's involvement.

Lockett caught four of five targets for 37 yards in Monday's 34-31 loss to Atlanta. He did most of his damage in the return game, accounting for 197 kick-return yards.

Analysis: Monday was Lockett's third game in his last five contests with at least four catches, but that doesn't tell the whole story. The third-year receiver has just one game of over 70 yards this season and remains scoreless. If you were to say during the preseason that the Seahawks would trade away Jermaine Kearse and move to a more pass-happy attack, the assumption would have been big production from Lockett. That hasn't been the case as Paul Richardson has, instead, emerged as a big-play threat…read more

Lockett (shoulder) was listed as a full participant at Tuesday's walk-through, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official website reports.

Analysis: Lockett was held out of Monday's walk-though, but the team was presumably erring on the side of caution. With him practicing fully Tuesday, the 25-year-old looks on track to go Thursday against the Cardinals, as long as he avoids any setbacks.
