Inactive Sunday
Eskridge (ribs) is inactive for Sunday's game against the 49ers, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: The kick returner and depth receiver missed practice Thursday, participated on a limited basis Friday and carried a questionable tag into Sunday. Eskridge also missed Week 13 with the same injury. The third-year pro does not have a catch this season.

Questionable for Week 14
Eskridge (ribs) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the 49ers after logging a limited practice session Friday, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Analysis: Eskridge sat out Thursday's practice with a rib injury and returned Friday in a limited capacity. The injury forced him to sit out the Seahawks' Week 13 loss to the Cowboys. If Eskridge is unable to play Sunday, Zach Charbonnet (knee) figures to be the next man up for kick return duties, assuming he's able to suit up for the contest.

Misses practice Thursday
Eskridge (ribs) did not participate in practice Thursday after fully participating in Wednesday's session, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: The wide receiver sat out of the Seahawks' Week 13 loss to the Cowboys with the injury. Eskridge does not have a catch this season on 16 offensive snaps, though he is Seattle's kick returner.

Returns to practice
Eskridge (ribs) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Eskridge missed Week 13 against the Cowboys while dealing with a rib issue. He's buried on the wide receiver depth chart but has established himself as the top kick returner, and, barring a setback, figures to reclaim that role for Week 14 against the 49ers.

Inactive Thursday
Eskridge (ribs) is inactive for Thursday night's game against the Cowboys.
Analysis: The depth wide receiver missed the last two practice sessions of the week leading up to the game. Eskridge has played on just 16 offensive snaps in 2023, receiving one target.

Listed as questionable
Eskridge (ribs) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Cowboys after being a nonparticipant in Wednesday's practice, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Eskridge may be on the wrong side of questionable after logging back-to-back DNPs leading up to Thursday. The 27-year-old has had minimal impact on the Seattle offense this season, seeing just 16 snaps and one target in four contests. However, his potential absence could affect the team's return game and push Zach Charbonnet or DeeJay Dallas into kick-return duties.

Misses practice Tuesday
Eskridge (ribs) was a nonparticipant at the Seahawks' practice Tuesday, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.
Analysis: Eskridge saw his participation regress after he was able to log a limited session Monday, making his chances to play Thursday versus the Cowboys slim. He will receive an official game designation following Wednesday's practice.

Limited at practice Monday
Eskridge (ribs) was a limited participant at practice Monday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Eskridge has played a limited role on offense for the Seahawks this season, but he's emerged as the team's top kick returner since returning from a six-game suspension to begin the campaign. During the Week 12 loss to San Francisco on Thanksgiving, he tallied 140 yards on four returns (including a 66-yarder) and carried once for 10 yards. It's unclear if Eskridge is at risk of missing this Thursday's game in Dallas, but if he does sit out, DeeJay Dallas could take over kick-return duties.

Won't play again Week 10
Eskridge (coach's decision) has been ruled inactive ahead of Sunday's contest with the Commanders.
Analysis: Eskridge will sit out after he failed to log an offensive snap in last week's loss to the Ravens. The 2021 second-round pick has appeared in two games since serving a six-game suspension to begin the season, but he's yet to log a target this season. In his absence, Dareke Young and Jake Bobo will serve as Seattle's fourth and fifth wideouts behind starters DK Metcalf, Tyler Lockett and Jaxon Smith-Njigba.

No offensive reps
Eskridge didn't log an offensive snap in Sunday's 37-3 loss to the Ravens. He returned three kickoffs for 60 yards.
Analysis: Eskridge was the fifth wideout to suit up for the Seahawks but couldn't get into the offensive rotation. We shouldn't expect much out of Eskridge for fantasy purposes this year.

Uneventful debut
Eskridge lost five yards on his lone rushing attempt and returned one kickoff for 24 yards in Sunday's 24-20 win over the Browns.
Analysis: Eskridge returned from his six-game suspension and shook off a knee injury to make his season debut Sunday. The 2021 second-round pick only played three offensive snaps. With Jake Bobo's emergence as the No. 4 receiver, Eskridge isn't expected to have much of an offensive impact this season.

Full participant Thursday
Eskridge (knee) logged a full practice with Seattle on Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Eskridge was limited with a knee issue to open the week Wednesday, but he now appears to be ready to go for Sunday's matchup with the Browns. The wide receiver has operated as an extreme depth option behind DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett with the Seahawks this year.

Limited in practice
Eskridge (knee) was a limited participant in Seattle's practice Wednesday, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Analysis: Eskridge's six-game suspension was lifted Monday but the 26-year-old is now dealing with a knee injury. With Tyler Lockett (hamstring) also dealing with an injury, Seattle could be short-handed at receiver for Sunday's game versus the Browns.

Suspension completed
Eskridge has completed his six-game suspension for a violation of the NFL's personal conduct policy, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Analysis: Eskridge was suspended for the first six games of the season back in August, but now that he has been reinstated, the wideout is eligible to return to action as soon as Sunday's game against the Browns. In 10 games last season, the 2021 second-rounder caught seven of his 13 targets for 58 yards and carried twice for 10 yards.

Back in building
Eskridge (suspension) was present at the Seahawks' facility Wednesday, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Analysis: Eskridge still has two more weeks before he can return to the field after he was handed a six-game suspension in August for violating the NFL's personal conduct policy, but the wide receiver is allowed to be back in the building. Once active, Eskridge will operate as a depth option at receiver behind the likes of DK Metcalf, Tyler Lockett and Jaxon Smith-Njigba.

Suffers sprained knee
Coach Pete Carroll said Saturday that Eskridge (suspension) sustained a "legit sprain" in his right knee during Thursday's preseason game against the Vikings, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Eskridge suffered the injury while covering a kickoff Thursday. Carroll added that his recovery "could be a few weeks," which, if it comes to pass, will keep him out for the Seahawks' final two exhibitions. Eskridge also faces a six-game suspension to start the season for violating the personal conduct policy, so Seattle may not have his services again until Week 8 against the Browns.

Hurts leg Thursday
Eskridge (suspension) suffered an apparent right leg injury during the opening kickoff of Thursday's preseason contest against the Vikings, Curtis Crabtree of Fox 13 Seattle reports.
Analysis: Operating on kick coverage, Eskridge remained on the turf at the end of the play before making his way to the blue sideline tent, per Brady Henderson of ESPN.com. The nature of Eskridge's injury is unknown, but it could be another setback after the NFL handed him a six-game suspension last week for violating the NFL's personal conduct policy.

In line to play Thursday
Head coach Pete Carroll said Wednesday that Eskridge (suspension) is expected to play in Thursday's preseason game against the Vikings, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Carroll noted that Eskridge was tending to "a little something" Tuesday that held him out of drills, but the receiver was back on the practice field one day later. While Eskridge is eligible to play during exhibition season, he'll be serving a six-game suspension to begin the upcoming campaign due to a violation of the NFL's personal conduct policy. As a result, his first possible game action will come Oct. 29 versus the Browns.

Suspended six games
Eskridge has been suspended six games for a violation of the NFL's personal conduct policy, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: The 2021 second-round pick can still practice this summer and play in preseason games but won't be eligible to make his regular-season debut until Oct. 29 against the Browns. It probably doesn't change much for the Seattle offense, as Eskridge is no better than fourth on a depth chart that includes WRs DK Metcalf, Tyler Lockett and Jaxon Smith-Njigba.

Vying for depth role in 2023
Eskridge will compete for a depth spot heading into the 2023 season after the Seahawks selected Jaxon Smith-Njigba in the first round of this year's draft, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.
Analysis: Even if the Seahawks didn't add to their receiver room, Eskridge wasn't a lock for a starting role, let alone a roster spot. The 2021 second-round pick has played just 20 games through his first two seasons with only 17 catches for 122 yards and a touchdown to show for it. Cade Johnson and Dareke Young will be his primary competition for the No. 4 spot in 2023.

Getting closer to return
Eskridge (hand) was designated to return from IR on Tuesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Eskridge could return to the field Saturday against the 49ers, but he'll need to be added to the 53-man roster first. However, he was able to return to the practice field Tuesday, which will be the first step before he can return to action.

Heading to IR
The Seahawks placed Eskridge (hand) on injured reserve Saturday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Eskridge left Seattle's last game Week 10 with what initially was termed a bruised hand. With the hindsight provided by a Week 11 bye, coach Pete Carroll revealed Friday that Eskridge instead has a broken hand, which will force an IR stint. Eskridge will miss at least the next four contests as a result, meaning his next chance to play will arrive Saturday, Dec. 24 in Kansas City. Some options to fill in for him as a kick returner are DeeJay Dallas and Tre Brown, per Boyle.

En route to IR with broken hand
Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said Friday that Eskridge, who is listed as out for Sunday's game against the Raiders, is dealing with a fractured hand, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Following Eskridge's exit from the Seahawks' Week 10 loss to the Buccaneers in Munich, Carroll said the second-year wideout sustained a bruised hand and would likely be fine following the team's Week 11 bye. However, Eskridge didn't practice in any capacity Wednesday and Friday, and Carroll's about-face on his earlier comments about the receiver's injury now explain why. Carroll implied that Eskridge would likely be placed on injured reserve, a transaction that could be made Saturday to give…read more

Sitting out Sunday
Eskridge (hand) is listed as out for Sunday's game against the Raiders, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Coming out of a Week 11 bye, Eskridge is the only Seahawks player on the 53-man roster who has an injury designation as the team returns to action Sunday. Eskridge suffered the bruised hand in the Seahawks' Week 10 loss to the Buccaneers in Munich, and though he was expected to be good to go following the bye week, he failed to practice in any fashion Wednesday through Friday. Look for either Dareke Young or Penny Hart to step in Sunday for Eskridge as the Seahawks' No. 4 receiver.

DNP once again
Eskridge (hand) was listed as a non-participant on Thursday's practice estimate, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Analysis: Eskridge exited the team's Week 10 game against the Buccaneers with the injury, and after a Week 11 bye, the second-year-pro has still yet to practice. Although his influence on the offense is minor, he does operate as the team's return man. If he's unable to play Sunday against the Raiders, Dareke Young will likely move up the wideout depth chart, while DeeJay Dallas may take full control of the return duties.

Doesn't practice Wednesday
Eskridge (hand) was a non-participant at Seattle's practice Wednesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Eskridge left a Week 10 loss to Tampa Bay with a bruised hand, though head coach Pete Carroll subsequently suggested that the wideout didn't have a major injury. Nonetheless, it's concerning that Eskridge was unable to take part in the Seahawks' first practice following their Week 11 bye. Eskridge hasn't played a major role on offense this season -- he has just seven catches on 13 targets for 58 yards over 10 games -- but he's worked as the team's primary kick returner since Week 7.

Injury expected to be minor
Coach Pete Carroll said Tuesday that Eskridge has a bruised hand and should be fine following the Seahawks' Week 11 bye, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Analysis: Eskridge suffered a hand injury during the Seahawks' Week 10 loss to Tampa Bay, but he shouldn't have to miss any game action. The second-year wideout has caught seven of 13 targets for 58 yards across 157 offensive snaps and continues to operate as the team's primary kick returner.

Leaves with injury
Eskridge has exited Sunday's game against the Buccaneers with a hand injury.
Analysis: Eskridge is questionable to return to the contest. His absence will impact the team's return game, as well as it's depth at receiver. DeeJay Dallas will likely take over as the teams return man, while Dareke Young will see extra snaps on offense, while Eskridge is out of the game.

No catches despite expanded role
Eskridge failed to catch either of his two targets in Sunday's 31-21 win over the Cardinals. He also returned two kicks for 41 yards.
Analysis: The 2021 second-round pick played a season-high 36 offensive snaps (51 percent) with Marquise Goodwin (hamstring) sidelined but couldn't capitalize on the extra reps. Eskridge has produced just seven catches for 58 yards through nine games this year.

In line for expanded role
Coach Pete Carroll said Eskridge will get more work Sunday at Arizona with Marquise Goodwin (groin) sidelined for the contest, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.
Analysis: Targets are few and far between behind the Seahawks' top wide receiver duo of Tyler Lockett (hamstring/ribs) and DK Metcalf (knee), as evidenced by Goodwin compiling just 20 targets in seven games this season. Eskridge himself has just 11 to his name, turning them into a paltry seven catches for 58 yards and no touchdowns, but he's also recorded two carries for 10 yards. A larger snap count for the second-year pro this weekend could result in touches as both a receiver and ball carrier.

Snags one pass
Eskridge caught one of two targets for three yards in the 27-13 win over the Giants on Sunday. He also returned one kickoff for 26 yards.
Analysis: Eskridge continues to operate as the No. 4 wide receiver, as he logged a 30.0 percent snap share in Week 8. The 2021 second-round pick has seven catches (11 targets) for 58 yards through eight games. He'll have little fantasy value until his usage increases.

No catches in win
Eskridge didn't catch his lone target but rushed once for four yards in Sunday's 37-23 win over the Chargers. He also returned two kicks for 45 yards.
Analysis: DK Metcalf exited early with a knee injury, so Eskridge handled a season-high 30 offensive snaps. However, he didn't make much of an impact offensively. Marquise Goodwin -- who caught four passes for 67 yards and two touchdowns -- looks like the replacement if Metcalf misses time.

Career-high yardage
Eskridge caught all three of his targets for 39 yards in Sunday's 19-9 win over the Cardinals.
Analysis: Eskridge played just 13 offensive snaps, as he slotted in as the No. 4 wide receiver. The second-year pro managed to produce a career-high yardage tally, though. He won't be a fantasy option this season as long as Tyler Lockett and DK Metcalf are healthy, considering he's played just 76 snaps through six games.

Active in Week 6
Eskridge (illness) is active for Sunday's Week 6 clash against the Cardinals, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Analysis: The second-year wideout was able to overcome an early-week illness to return to limited practice participation by Thursday, so his availability was expected. Now that it's confirmed, Eskridge is slated to fill his usual No. 4 receiver role, one that's netted a meager 3-16 line on five targets thus far across five games.

Eskridge (illness) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.
Analysis: Eskridge should be able to play, considering he got sick early in the week and returned to a limited practice Thursday. The player he's been battling for the No. 3 receiver role, Marquise Goodwin, also is listed as questionable for Week 6, on account of knee and back injuries.

Analysis: Eskridge was unable to practice Wednesday after coming down with an illness, though he appears to be doing well enough to practice again Thursday. The second-year wideout has not made much of an impact over the first five games of the season, but he has seen his playing time increase each week.

Pops up on injury report
Eskridge did not participate during practice Wednesday due to an illness, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: This illness will leave Eskridge's availability for Sunday's game against the Cardinals up in the air. The 25-year-old has caught three of five targets for 16 yards through the first five games of 2022, so his potential absence should not have a significant impact on Seattle's passing game in Week 6.

Targeted once in loss
Eskridge didn't catch his lone target in Sunday's 39-32 loss to the Saints.
Analysis: Eskridge handled a season-high 25 snaps because Marquise Goodwin (knee) was inactive. Geno Smith threw 25 passes for 268 yards and three touchdowns, but Eskridge was barely utilized in the passing game. Even if Goodwin misses further time, Eskridge won't be a dependable fantasy option.

Catches one pass
Eskridge caught his lone target for 10 yards in Sunday's 48-45 win over the Lions.
Analysis: Eskridge logged a season-high 17 offensive snaps, which was fourth among Seahawks wide receivers. The second-year receiver didn't do much with the opportunity, as DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett commanded most of the targets Sunday. Eskridge now has three catches for 16 yards and one carry for six yards this year.

Eskridge wasn't targeted in Sunday's 27-23 loss to the Falcons.

Eskridge caught his lone target for six yards in Sunday's 27-7 loss to the 49ers.
Analysis: The Seahawks trailed nearly all game, but the 2021 second-round pick was targeted on just one of Geno Smith's 30 passes. He was only on the field for six offensive snaps, as he's currently behind DK Metcalf, Tyler Lockett and Marquise Goodwin in the pecking order.

Quiet showing against Cowboys
Eskridge caught one of three targets for eight yards in Friday's preseason game against the Cowboys. He also returned one punt for 18 yards.
Analysis: The 2021 second-round pick didn't make much of an impression as a rookie, in part due to injuries, and that trend has continued into his second year, as a hamstring issue kept Eskridge sidelined for Seattle's first two preseason games. His ability to contribute on special teams, as well as the draft capital the team used on him, should ensure he has a roster spot in 2022, but Eskridge will still be behind Tyler Lockett and DK Metcalf on the depth chart at wideout and working in a passing game…read more

Expected to play Friday
Head coach Pete Carroll noted Eskridge (hamstring) is in line to play in Friday's preseason finale against the Cowboys, Corbin K. Smith of All Seahawks reports.
Analysis: Dating back to June, the 2021 second-rounder has been bothered by a hamstring injury. However, Eskridge's looming return to game action indicates that the issue is a thing of the past, as he also logged a solid week of practice, per John Boyle of the team's official site. Heading into the regular season, the 25-year-old is slated to compete with Freddie Swain and Marquise Goodwin for WR snaps behind presumed starters Tyler Lockett and DK Metcalf.

Might see preseason action
Head coach Pete Caroll said Eskridge (hamstring) practiced Tuesday and has a shot at playing in Friday's preseason finale against the Cowboys, Curtis Crabtree of Sports Radio 950 KJR Seattle reports.
Analysis: Since the beginning of June, Eskridge has been bothered by a hamstring issue, but he appears closer to gaining clearance ahead of the regular season. The second-year pro is looking to secure a role in the Seahawks' wide receiver corps behind Tyler Lockett, DK Metcalf and Freddie Swain. While it's possible that Eskridge could participate in Friday's exhibition against Dallas, it also wouldn't be a surprise to see the team err on the side of caution with the 2021 second-round draft selection.

Analysis: Eskridge had been bothered by a hamstring injury for the entirety of camp up to this point, but the 2021 fifth-round pick has finally returned to full health. He's expected to make Seattle's 53-man roster, but Eskridge sits fourth at best on the wide receiver depth chart behind DK Metcalf, Tyler Lockett and Freddie Swain.

Eskridge (hamstring) won't play in Thursday's preseason contest versus the Bears, but the wide receiver is close to gaining clearance for game action, Curtis Crabtree of Sports Radio 950 KJR Seattle reports.
Analysis: Eskridge missed time during mandatory minicamp back in June due to a hamstring injury which lingered into training camp. He made an appearance at practice last Wednesday, albeit without pads or a helmet, but he was seen catching passes in full uniform during individual drills at Tuesday's session, according to Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic. Eskridge will have one more chance to make an appearance during the exhibition schedule on Friday, Aug. 26 at Dallas.

Eskridge (hamstring) isn't anticipated to suit up for Saturday's preseason opener against the Steelers, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.
Analysis: Eskridge has been working his way back from a hamstring injury he suffered in June, so this news shouldn't be of great surprise given the 25-year-old has been limited all throughout camp. In 10 games played as a rookie, Eskridge accounted for 64 yards and one touchdown on 10 catches. The second-year receiver is slated to compete for Seattle's No. 4 receiver spot with Marquise Goodwin (hamstring) and Bo Melton.

Practicing without pads
Eskridge (hamstring) went through drills without a helmet Wednesday, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.
Analysis: It's an encouraging sign for Eskridge, who has displayed some vulnerability to the injury bug since he was drafted in the second round of the 2021 draft. It would be somewhat surprising to see him suit up for Seattle's preseason opener Saturday considering he still hasn't put his pads on this season, but he'll be one of the top candidates for reps behind Tyler Lockett and DK Metcalf once he returns to action in earnest.

Getting close to return
Coach Pete Carroll said Eskridge (hamstring) is drawing closer to a return to practice, but there's a chance the second-year wide receiver may not play during the preseason, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Analysis: It's no surprise the Seahawks are being extra cautious with Eskridge after he sat out seven games last year due to a concussion that he suffered Week 1 and then showed up in the injury report Week 15 due to a foot issue. Overall, he was limited to 183 offensive snaps, 20 targets and four carries in 10 appearances. Even if he reaches 100 percent during exhibition season, Eskridge may not suit up until the regular-season opener.

Still bothered by hamstring injury
Eskridge (hamstring) was limited during Wednesday's practice, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Head coach Pete Carroll said the team was being cautious because Eskridge's hamstring tightened up after the start of practice, but this isn't a new issue. Eskridge sat portions out of OTAs in early June with a hamstring injury, as well. This will be a pivotal training camp for the 2021 second-round pick, as he caught just 10 passes for 64 yards and a touchdown as a rookie. Eskridge will need to get healthy quickly and have a strong showing in the preseason to unseat Freddie Swain from the No.…read more

Sidelined with hamstring injury
Head coach Pete Carroll said Thursday that Eskridge missed part of mandatory minicamp due to a hamstring injury, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Analysis: Every rep matters for Eskridge, who is hoping to prove himself this offseason after an underwhelming rookie campaign where he missed seven games with a concussion and finished with 10 receptions for 64 yards and a touchdown. The 2021 second-round pick will aim to get back on the field Tuesday when the Seahawks finish their offseason program with a three-day session. Eskridge is primarily competing against Freddie Swain and rookie Bo Melton (hamstring) for the No. 3 wideout spot, though there…read more

Dismal rookie season
Eskridge posted 10 receptions (20 targets) for 64 yards and a touchdown and four rushes for 59 yards over 10 games during his 2021 season.
Analysis: Eskridge missed seven games with a concussion and played more than 50 percent of the offensive snaps just once, averaging 18.9 snaps per game. The rookie second-round pick basically split the Seahawks' No. 3 wideout snaps with Freddie Swain, and neither player managed to distinguish himself. Head coach Pete Carroll said Monday that he expects Eskridge to be "a really impactful player" next year. Carroll will need to be creative to get Eskridge involved considering Tyler Lockett and DK Metcalf…read more

Flashes on end-around
Eskridge caught one of three targets for seven yards and rushed once for 30 yards in Sunday's 51-29 win over the Lions.
Analysis: Eskridge was relatively quiet all game until about two minutes left in the fourth quarter when the rookie took an end-around 30 yards and fell a half-yard short of the end zone. Still, it's disappointing that he couldn't get seriously involved until garbage time. Eskridge will look to finish his first NFL season strong Week 18 against the Cardinals.

Reels in two passes
Eskridge caught two of three targets for 10 yards and rushed once for seven yards in Sunday's 25-24 loss to the Bears.
Analysis: The rookie second-round pick has struggled to get involved on offense this season, as he missed seven games with a concussion and has played more than 50 percent of the offensive snaps just once. He's worth holding onto in dynasty because of the draft capital used to bring him in, but Eskridge isn't dependable in redraft leagues.

Catchless on four targets
Eskridge didn't catch any of his four targets in Tuesday's 20-10 loss to the Rams.
Analysis: Eskridge handled his biggest snap share of the season (70 percent), largely because Tyler Lockett (illness) missed the game while on the reserve/COVID-19 list. The rookie second-round pick has played in only seven games this season, recording just seven receptions for 47 yards and a touchdown.

Eskridge (foot) was a full participant in Friday's practice, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: After all of Eskridge, DK Metcalf (foot/back) and Freddie Swain (ankle) were withheld from Seattle's first two practices of Week 15, the trio cleared up any concern about their availability for Seattle's upcoming game against the Rams by taking every rep during Friday's session. Even with the NFL announcing that the Seahawks-Rams matchup would be pushed back from Sunday to Tuesday due to ongoing COVID-19-related issues within the Los Angeles organization, Seattle could still be without wideout…read more

Eskridge (foot) was a non-participant at practice Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: All of DK Metcalf (foot/back), Freddie Swain (ankle/personal) and Eskridge haven't stepped on the field during Week 15 prep, while Seattle placed Tyler Lockett (undisclosed) on the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday. Friday's injury report may reveal who potentially may be available for Sunday's game at the Chargers, but for the time being Penny Hart is the only healthy wide receiver on the Seahawks' active roster.

Usage rising
Eskridge failed to catch his lone target in Sunday's 33-13 win over the Texans.
Analysis: Eskridge recorded a season-high 49 percent snap share Sunday, out-snapping Freddie Swain (44 percent) for the first time this year. Unfortunately, the rookie couldn't capitalize on the opportunity. His usage is encouraging, especially in dynasty formats, but he has a long way to go before fantasy managers can rely on him on a weekly basis. Eskridge has recorded seven receptions for 47 yards and a touchdown through six games.

Scores first NFL touchdown
Eskridge caught all three of his targets for 35 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 30-23 win over the 49ers.
Analysis: The rookie saw the same target volume as Freddie Swain, his competition for the No. 3 wideout role, but Eskridge made a bigger impact by catching a seven-yard TD toss from Russell Wilson late in the third quarter. It was the first touchdown of Eskridge's career, and he could be earning Wilson's trust heading into a Week 14 tilt against the Texans.

Hauls in two passes
Eskridge caught two passes on three targets for 10 yards in Monday's 17-15 loss to Washington. He also returned two kicks for 54 yards.
Analysis: The rookie second-round pick suited up for the fourth time this season, recording 13 of 47 possible offensive snaps (28 percent). Eskridge is still getting his feet wet after missing seven games with a concussion, but he appears to be far behind Freddie Swain (66 percent snap share) in the battle for the No. 3 receiver spot. However, Eskridge may continue to contribute as a returner because DeeJay Dallas -- the team's typical kick returner -- is now the primary backup to Alex Collins at running…read more

Wasn't targeted Sunday
Eskridge didn't receive a target in Sunday's 23-13 loss to the Cardinals.
Analysis: Eskridge logged 11 snaps (22 percent) in his second game back from a concussion, but he wasn't targeted on any of Russell Wilson's 26 passes. The rookie second-round pick could start seeing more snaps at some point because Freddie Swain has failed to establish himself as the No. 3 receiver, though there likely isn't much fantasy upside behind Tyler Lockett and DK Metcalf.

Five snaps in return to action
Eskridge recorded minus-4 yards on one reception (two targets) in Sunday's 17-0 loss to the Packers.
Analysis: Eskridge made his first appearance since Week 1 after missing seven games due to a concussion. The rookie second-round pick logged just five offensive snaps, which ranked fifth among Seahawks wide receivers. Considering he had a long layoff, the Seahawks were probably easing him into the mix. Still, Freddie Swain seems to have the No. 3 role locked down, and Eskridge has an uphill battle to overtake him in the second half of the season.

Back on active roster
The Seahawks activated Eskridge (concussion) from injured reserve Friday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports. "He had a great week," coach Pete Carroll said. "He did everything to be included in the plan. We can use him as we want to. He really had a great week and looked terrific."
Analysis: As did Russell Wilson (finger), getting Seattle closer to full health than it has been in some time. Chris Carson (IR/neck) won't be activated in advance of Sunday's contest at Green Bay, but Eskridge nonetheless will make his second appearance of the season. Back in Week 1 before suffering the concussion that forced seven absences, Eskridge hauled in his only target for six yards and had two carries for 22 yards on fly sweeps.

Trending in right direction
Eskridge (concussion) is expected to suit up for Sunday's game against the Packers, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.
Analysis: Eskridge hasn't seen any NFL action since sustaining a concussion Week 1, but it looks like both he and quarterback Russell Wilson (finger) will be back on the field versus Green Bay. The rookie second-round pick could be eased back into action, but he doesn't have many significant barriers in his way for the No. 3 wideout role behind DK Metcalf (foot) and Tyler Lockett. Neither Freddie Swain nor Penny Hart were targeted in Seattle's most recent game, a Week 8 win over the Jaguars.

Analysis: Prior to the session, Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll noted Eskridge was "ready to go full speed" as the rookie closes in on his first game action since suffering a concussion Week 1. In the meantime, Eskridge paid a visit to a concussion specialist in Florida twice, and the Seahawks designated him to return Monday. According to Carroll, Eskridge fared well in his return to practice earlier this week, which allowed him to participate Wednesday, too. Because he's on IR, there's no telling where…read more

Analysis: Following Seattle's Week 9 bye, Eskridge will join the Seahawks for practice Monday for the first time in more than a month. Assuming he doesn't incur any setbacks in his recovery from the concussion and doesn't need extended time to regain conditioning, he could be a candidate to return from injured reserve ahead of Sunday's game against the Packers. If not, the Seahawks still would have an additional two weeks to evaluate Eskridge for a return to the 53-man roster. He's played in just one…read more

Eskridge (concussion) may return to action in the Seahawks' Week 10 visit to Green Bay, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Eskridge has been sidelined since Week 1 due to a concussion that has impacted his vision, among other things. He thus visited a specialist in Florida recently to participate in a visual training program. While he's back in Seattle, the fact the team hasn't designated him to return from IR indicates he has yet to get back on the practice field.

Analysis: Eskridge has been away from the team recently to take part in a visual training program in Florida, after experiencing some side effects of the concussion he sustained Week 1. The rookie second-round pick apparently is in "great shape and ready to go," per head coach Pete Carroll, but it's unclear where Eskridge currently stands in the NFL's concussion protocol.

Analysis: Since he sustained a concussion in the season opener, Eskridge has been listed as a DNP on 10 of 12 injury reports over the last four weeks. And on one of those two occasions in which he wasn't, his LP showed up on a practice estimate, meaning the Seahawks didn't even take the field that day.

Coach Pete Carroll said Monday that it's unclear whether Eskridge (concussion) will be able to return for Thursday's game against the Rams, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Analysis: Eskridge returned to practice in a limited capacity last week, but he was held out for a third consecutive game. Because the Seahawks face a short week ahead of their matchup against the Rams, it's not certain whether he'll be cleared to return Week 5. Freddie Swain should continue to serve as Seattle's No. 3 receiver if Eskridge is sidelined once again.

It's unclear when Eskridge will get past his head injury, but Freddie Swain figures to handle the No. 3 WR role in the Seahawks offense behind starters DK Metcalf (foot) and Tyler Lockett (hip) for the foreseeable future.

Analysis: Carroll specifically mentioned Wednesday as the day in which Seattle will have more information on Eskridge and his recovery from a Week 1 concussion. Perhaps the rookie second-round pick has made some progress through the protocol for head injuries, but he has yet to practice since the diagnosis. With Eskridge on the sideline, DK Metcalf, Tyler Lockett and Freddie Swain have acted as the Seahawks' clear-cut top three wide receivers.

Analysis: The rookie hasn't practiced or played since suffering a concussion Week 1.

Carroll's comments make it sound like the rookie second-round pick will make his NFL debut against the Vikings if he doesn't suffer a setback during practice this week.

Analysis: A toe injury from the offseason program lingered into training camp, limiting Eskridge to one appearance in the exhibition season (two touches for 28 yards from scrimmage against the Chargers on Aug. 28). While he kicked off Week 1 prep with a limited practice Wednesday, he was unhindered one day later and is set to face the Colts in a road matchup Sunday. Eskridge likely will vie with Freddie Swain for reps as the Seahawks' third wide receiver behind DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett.

Eskridge (toe) practiced in a limited capacity Wednesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Eskridge picked up a toe issue in mandatory minicamp in mid-June and kicked off training camp on the PUP list. Since Seattle activated him Aug. 17, he made one preseason appearance Aug. 28, recording one catch (on one target) for 19 yards and one nine-yard carry. The team still appears to be managing Eskridge's health, perhaps to keep him as fresh as possible for game action. He'll have two more chances to bump up to full participation before week's end.

Garners 28 total yards in win
Eskridge secured his only target for 19 yards and rushed once for nine yards in the Seahawks' 27-0 preseason win over the Chargers on Saturday night.
Analysis: The rookie's pro debut went well when considering Eskridge was highly efficient yardage-wise with his two opportunities. The second-round pick came into the contest with a chance of unseating Freddie Swain for the No. 3 receiver job, and considering the latter failed to bring in his only target, Eskridge may have done enough to ascend into that role ahead of Week 1.

Eskridge has been healthy and productive at practice this week, according to Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times.
Analysis: Condotta Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times that the rookie second-round pick prefers to be called "Dee" rather than "D'Wayne", though the Seahawks still have him listed under the latter name on their official website. He's making a late push for the No. 3 receiver role in Seattle, perhaps able to overcome a three-week stint on the PUP list given that Freddie Swain is his main competition. The Seahawks under Pete Carroll have sometimes used a rotation for that No. 3 role, but the decision to use…read more

Out for Saturday's game
Eskridge was seen working on the field before Saturday's preseason game against the Broncos but will not play, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Analysis: Eskridge was activated from the PUP list Aug. 17 but will have to wait to make his professional debut. He's expected to be ready for Week 1 against the Colts, and his ability to return to practice in recent days is a positive sign in that regard. Eskridge will be competing for the third receiver role with Freddie Swain.

Comes off PUP list
Eskridge (toe) was activated from the PUP list Tuesday after he passed a physical, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Eskridge will have nearly four weeks to prepare for Seattle's regular-season opener Sunday, Sept. 12 at Indianapolis. Coach Pete Carroll told John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site that the rookie will be "ready" for Week 1 and may even be able to suit up for the team's third preseason game Aug. 28 versus the Chargers. For the time being, Eskridge will continue to improve his conditioning with an eye toward suiting up for that contest.

Should practice next week
Coach Pete Carroll said Friday that Eskridge (toe) will come off the PUP list next week, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: The second-round pick was limited at June minicamp and still hasn't been cleared to practice at training camp. The Seahawks expect that clearance to happen within the next few days, and while Eskridge still has time to prepare for Week 1, the missed time could impact his standing on the depth chart. Then again, the Seahawks don't have much else behind DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett, seemingly relying on Freddie Swain as their No. 3 at the moment.

Continues to ramp up conditioning
Coach Pete Carroll said Tuesday that Eskridge (toe) has put together five "really good days" of running in a row as he improves his conditioning, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Eskridge remains on the preseason PUP list, the result of a toe injury that has lingered since mandatory minicamp back in June. Considering Carroll's comments however, Eskridge may be closing in on a return to the field, which would give him a chance to get in some exhibition action before Week 1. The 2021 second-round pick is a long shot to suit up Saturday in Las Vegas, but the Seahawks have a pair of contests after that in which Eskridge could make an impact.

Ramping up conditioning
Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said Wednesday that Eskridge (toe) will start to increase his conditioning in the near future, Curtis Crabtree of Sports Radio 950 KJR Seattle reports.
Analysis: A toe injury followed Eskridge into training camp, resulting in the rookie second-rounder residing on the PUP list so far during training camp. Carroll relayed the Seahawks' equipment staff made adjustments to Eskridge's shoes, which have alleviated discomfort in his foot while running. There's no telling when Eskridge will be cleared to practice, but Seattle can activate him from the PUP list at any point before Week 1.

Attempting to get past toe issue
Head coach Pete Carroll said Eskridge is tending to a nagging toe injury, but he's resumed running as the Seahawks attempt to get him healthy, Curtis Crabtree of Sports Radio 950 KJR Seattle reports.
Analysis: A 2021 second-round pick, Eskridge dealt with the same issue during mandatory minicamp back in June, so it's a bit concerning that it lingers more than a month and a half later. Currently residing on the PUP list, he'll enter the sweepstakes for the No. 3 wide receiver role in Seattle once he's able to join his teammates at practice. Eskridge's primary competition in camp and the preseason will be incumbent Freddie Swain.

Placed on PUP
The Seahawks placed Eskridge (toe) on the PUP list Wednesday, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Analysis: With the toe injury also limiting him in June minicamp, Eskridge isn't off to a great start in his quest to win the No. 3 receiver role. Granted, he still has a month and a half to prepare for Week 1, and competition isn't exactly fierce with Freddie Swain being the likely top alternative.

Dealing with toe injury
Eskridge is limited at mandatory minicamp this week while managing a toe injury, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: The rookie second-round pick has been able to catch passes while jogging, so he's still been able to work out in at least a small capacity. Eskridge will have more than a month to get healthy before the start of training camp in late July.
