Seahawks list Thomas Rawls as RB1

Sep 05, 2017

Teams are always quick to point out that the depth charts they release are unofficial and the Seahawks may illustrate just how unofficial they can be this week.

The team has listed Thomas Rawls as the top running back on their depth chart for the season opener against the Packers, but it’s not clear that Rawls is going to play at all this week let alone serve as the first running back in the game. Rawls has been dealing with an ankle injury.

HC Pete Carroll said at his Monday press conference that “we will find out during the week here” if Rawls can play, the story went on to say. Of course, Lacy would be the top back if Rawls can't go.

“I will be playing on Sunday. Very excited, can’t pass up playing the Packers. I will be out there for sure.”

George Kittle says he’s good to go for Sunday

Related Players: Eric Saubert

Fantasy Impact:

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
