Seahawks WR DK Metcalf (knee) week to week

Oct 21, 2024

After Sunday’s win over the Falcons, Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald said receiver DK Metcalf’s knee injury “doesn’t look too bad.”

There’s now some more clarity on Metcalf’s situation.

Per Adam Schefter of ESPN, Metcalf suffered a Grade 1 MCL sprain and is considered week-to-week.

Fantasy Impact:

Metcalf, 26, has recorded 35 receptions for 568 yards with three touchdowns so far this season. The Seahawks host the Bills in Week 8 and the Rams in Week 9 before their Week 10 bye. Seattle will issue its first injury report of the week on Wednesday, the story said. Generally, week to week really puts into doubt a players status, so owners may want to begin thinking about another plan in the event Metcalf can't go. The looming bye week could easily mean the team at least sits him out one, if not two, weeks. But, as the story said, the injury report could give us a better idea. Metcalf is a later Sunday game so it could get tricky for adjusting lineups.

Vikings downgrade T.J. Hockenson (knee) to out for Week 7

The Vikings downgraded TE T.J. (knee) to out for Sunday’s game against the Lions. Hockenson was limited at practice so the Vikings will wait one more week to activate him. He returned to practice October 4, meaning the Vikings will have to activate him by the end of next week or he will miss the rest of the season. In all likelihood, Hockenson will be activated next week and make his season debut in Week 8 against the Rams.

The Seahawks added RB Kenneth Walker III to the injury report with an illness.

Fantasy Impact:

Walker is now listed as questionable for Sunday’s game against the Falcons. Seattle plays in the early window Sunday so we’ll know by about 11:30 in the morning if Walker will be able to play. If not, it’ll be another opportunity for Zach Charbonnet to carry the load on offense.

Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) is set to practice this week and could play in Week 8 against the Cardinals.

Fantasy Impact:

Tagovailoa is eligible to return to practice this week following his stint on injured reserve. The Dolphins have struggled on offense without Tagovailoa. Tyler Huntley will start Sunday against the Colts. Tagovailoa reportedly has no lingering effects from the concussion he suffered in Week 2.
