Seahawks WR Doug Baldwin anticipates playing Week 4

Sep 26, 2017

Doug Baldwin sat out late with a groin issue that does not appear serious. Baldwin, who has played in 73 straight games — the fourth-longest active streak of any receiver in the NFL — said he anticipates being able to play Sunday against Indianapolis in a 5:30 p.m. kickoff at CenturyLink Field.

“That’s the plan,’’ Baldwin said. “We’re putting together the best plan possible for me to get back on the field as quickly as possible.’’

Fantasy Impact:

The problem for fantasy owners is it's a Sunday night game so those wanting to play him will need to have a backup plan in place for Baldwin. But this seems to at least be good news he's hopeful to play.

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.
