  • Two targets in win

    Arroyo didn't haul in either of his two targets in Sunday's 26-0 win over the Vikings.

    Analysis: Arroyo continues to run behind second-year tight end AJ Barner, as the former recorded a 39 percent snap share in the blowout win. We've seen some flashes from the rookie tight end, but he won't be a dependable fantasy option moving forward barring an injury to Barner.

  • Quiet in win

    Arroyo caught one pass for five yards in Sunday's 30-24 win over the Titans.

    Analysis: Arroyo played just 18 offensive snaps (38 percent), his lowest total since the season opener. The Seahawks' offense was quite efficient and didn't spend a ton of time on the field, but it will be difficult to trust Arroyo in nearly any fantasy setting considering he has just 15 catches for 179 yards and a touchdown through 11 games.

  • Reels in one pass

    Arroyo caught his lone target for five yards in Sunday's 44-22 win over the Cardinals.

    Analysis: It was a quirky game in which the Seahawks scoring two defensive touchdowns, and they threw the ball just 12 times. Arroyo handled a 47 percent snap share, which has been fairly consistent all season. He still profiles as the No. 2 tight end behind AJ Barner ahead of a Week 11 matchup versus the Rams.

  • Scores first TD

    Arroyo caught two passes on two targets for 29 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 38-14 win over the Commanders.

    Analysis: Arroyo notched his first career touchdown on a 26-yard pass in the second quarter. Despite the blowout, the starters played nearly the entire game, and Arroyo played just 22 of 51 offensive snaps (43 percent), which has his standard workload this season with AJ Barner handling a nearly every-down role. Arroyo's touchdown provided an intriguing flash of athleticism and upside, but he'll be tough to depend on until he secures an increased role.

  • Reels in four passes

    Arroyo caught four of five passes for 42 yards in Monday's 27-19 win over the Texans.

    Analysis: Arroyo finished with a 38 percent snap share but out-produced fellow tight end A.J. Barner, who caught just one pass for seven yards. A rookie second-round pick, Arroyo continues to showcase his upside, but his snap count will remain low unless he can overtake Barner as the superior run blocker. In the long run, it's worth holding Arroyo in dynasty formats due to his superb athleticism.

  • Snares one pass

    Arroyo caught one of two targets for six yards in Sunday's 20-12 win over the Jaguars.

    Analysis: Arroyo continues to work as the No. 2 tight end behind AJ Barner, who has consistently played around 80 percent of the offensive snaps while producing 17 receptions for 205 yards and four touchdowns. Meanwhile, Arroyo has logged more than 50 percent of the snaps just once this season, and he has yet to catch more than two passes in a game. The rookie is an intriguing athlete who could still have a bright future in the league, but it will be difficult to depend on him for fantasy purposes until…read more

  • One grab in loss

    Arroyo secured his lone target for 10 yards in Sunday's 38-35 loss to the Buccaneers.

    Analysis: Arroyo played 26 of the Seahawks' 61 offensive snaps, behind fellow tight end AJ Barner (49) and ahead of Eric Saubert (17). The rookie has recorded just six catches for 92 yards across Seattle's first five games this season. Arroyo's limited usage makes him very difficult to trust for fantasy purposes. The Seahawks visit the Jaguars in Week 6.

  • Generates 44 yards in win

    Arroyo caught two of four targets for 44 yards in Thursday's 23-20 win over the Cardinals.

    Analysis: Arroyo gained 32 yards on one reception, and he was targeted in the end zone in the second quarter, too. The rookie played 55 percent of the offensive snaps, and while he's still the No. 2 tight end behind AJ Barner, Arroyo's snap counts and usage are rising. He'll look to continue his ascent in Week 5 against the Buccaneers.

  • Cleared to play Thurdsay

    Arroyo (groin) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice and does not carry an injury designation into Thursday's NFC West clash against the Cardinals, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

    Analysis: Arroyo failed to haul in his lone target during Sunday's 44-13 win over the Saints and tweaked his groin in the process. He was estimated as limited on the first two practice reports of the week, but he has been given the green light to play in Arizona. The rookie second-rounder has opened the season with three catches (on five targets) for 38 yards while operating as the Seahawks' TE2 behind AJ Barner.

  • Deemed limited for walkthrough

    Arroyo (groin) was estimated as a limited participant in Tuesday's practice walkthrough, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

    Analysis: Arroyo was was also estimated as a limited participant Monday, so his status for Thursday's Week 4 matchup against Arizona is very much up in the air. The rookie tight end logged a season-high 28 offensive snaps in Sunday's win over New Orleans, but he came away from that contest with a groin injury. If he's unable to suit up Thursday, Eric Saubert would presumably work as Seattle's No. 2 tight end behind AJ Barner.

  • Working through groin injury

    Arroyo was listed as a limited participant in Monday's estimated practice report due to a groin injury, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.

    Analysis: The rookie second-rounder played 30 snaps (28 on offense, two on special teams) and failed to haul in his lone target during the Seahawks' 44-13 win over the Saints on Sunday. Arroyo appears to have come out of that contest worse for wear with a groin injury, and his practice participation over the next two days will determine his status heading into Thursday's NFC West clash against the Cardinals in Arizona. Eric Saubert and Nick Kallerup would be in line for more snaps at tight end behind AJ…read more

  • Gets more snaps in blowout win

    Arroyo didn't catch his only target in Sunday's 44-13 win over the Saints.

    Analysis: Arroyo played 50 percent of the offensive snaps, his highest mark of the year. There's no indication that he's encroaching on AJ Barner's workload at this point, but if the trend continues in Thursday's matchup versus the Cardinals, it will be worth keeping an eye on.

  • Two catches in win

    Arroyo caught two of three targets for 31 yards in Sunday's 31-17 win over the Steelers.

    Analysis: Arroyo handled a 39 percent snap share and is the clear No. 2 tight end behind second-year AJ Barner, who logged 89 percent of the offensive snaps. The rookie showed his explosiveness in the first quarter, scooping a short pass from Sam Darnold and taking it 34 yards into Pittsburgh territory. While he caught just one pass the rest of the game, it's an encouraging start for the youngster.

  • Quiet debut

    Arroyo caught his lone target for seven yards in Sunday's 17-13 loss to the 49ers.

    Analysis: The rookie second-round pick played just 16 of the team's 52 offensive snaps (31 percent) while AJ Barner finished with 44 snaps (85 percent). Arroyo should have the highest long-term upside because of his athleticism and pass-catching abilities, but Barner has established himself as a dependable run blocker that may fit better with the Seahawks' scheme.

  • Logs two receptions Friday

    Arroyo brought in both of his targets for 19 yards in Friday's 33-16 preseason win over Kansas City.

    Analysis: AJ Barner lined up with Seattle's first-string offense Friday, hinting that he has the early lead over Arroyo in the competition for the No. 1 tight end job. The 22-year-old Arroyo hasn't done anything to hurt his stock this preseason, catching all four of his targets for 33 yards across two contests. The rookie would have to leapfrog Barner in the Seahawks' final preseason game against Green Bay on Saturday, Aug. 23 in order to avoid starting the regular season as the backup option.

  • Competing with AJ Barner

    Arroyo is thriving as a pass catcher early in training camp, but AJ Barner's blocking makes him the favorite to replace Noah Fant as Seattle's starting tight end, according to Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune.

    Analysis: Barner, a 2024 fourth-round pick, was Seattle's No. 2 tight end for most of his rookie season. Fant's recent release gives both Barner and Arroyo a big opportunity, especially because new Seahawks offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak is expected to shift the team toward more heavy packages with multiple tight ends and/or a fullback. Arroyo, a rookie second-round pick, could earn a role as the top tight end for passing situations even if he isn't a starter, given that he's faster and more…read more

  • Door to starting job opens

    Arroyo will compete with AJ Barner for the starting tight end job after the Seahawks released Noah Fant on Sunday, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.

    Analysis: A rookie second-round pick, Arroyo was going to be in the mix for the starting job regardless, but Fant's departure opens the door further. Arroyo (6-foot-5, 254 pounds) struggled with knee injuries during his second and third seasons at Miami before reeling in 35 passes for 590 yards and seven touchdowns in his final collegiate campaign. He didn't test at the NFL Combine or pro day due to a knee injury, but he's considered a standout athlete anyway. Barner is considered a better blocker and…read more

  • Inks deal with Seahawks

    Arroyo signed his four-year rookie deal with the Seahawks on Friday, Bob Condotta of the Seattle Times reports.

    Analysis: Per Adam Schefter of ESPN, Arroyo's $8.81 million deal includes $6.87 million fully guaranteed. While Condotta notes that the tight end, who was taken in the second round of the 2025 NFL Draft, 50th overall, is expected is expected to earn substantial playing time as a rookie, steady volume may be an issue for the 6-foot-5, 254-pounder out of Miami with veteran returnees Noah Fant and AJ Barner also in Seattle's TE mix.
