Should this deal go through, the AFC West is loaded with fantasy-relevant talent and Wilson gets an upgrade in protection. More on details are made available.

Trade talks involving Seahawks QB Russell Wilson are expected to pick back up after the season.

Here we go again. Rumors were swirling during the last offseason and they will only continue, as speculation has only grown with the Seahawks in the midst of a 4-8 season, yet somehow still in the playoff hunt. The rumors even picked back up last week, as Wilson had to refute a story about possible places he could be traded to or waive his no-trade clause for. Wilson is under contract for two more years and, as Rapoport notes, the Seahawks can also franchise-tag him twice. It's a story that's only going to continue to linger, especially if the Seahawks miss the playoffs. Seattle visits Houston today to face the 2-10 Texans.

Saints QB Taysom Hill may have torn a tendon in his middle finger on his throwing hand, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. It is a similar injury to what Russell Wilson had.

UPDATE: Hill has a mallet finger according to Adam Schefter of ESPN, but he will not require surgery like Russell Wilson.

Welcome to QB purgatory, New Orleans! There has been zero injury luck for the Saints at the most important position in sports. Hill will try to play but do not be surprised if Siemian finishes the season as their starter.

The Seahawks had never been shut out with Russell Wilson at quarterback until Sunday night, when Aaron Rodgers and the Packers claimed an ugly 17-0 victory to spoil Wilson's anticipated return from injured reserve. Most discouraging of all might've been Wilson's own performance -- an out-of-sync clunker that saw the Pro Bowler complete just 50 percent of his passes and throw a pair of untimely interceptions. But Wilson told reporters afterward that his finger, surgically repaired during his three-game stint on IR, was not to blame.

"My finger felt fine," he said. "The problem with tonight was I had two bad plays, you know?"

Seems like Wilson escaped Week 10 with no more damage to his finger after a stint on IR. It wasn't the type of fantasy performance Wilson's owners were expecting against the Packers, however. Things won't get easier for Wilson as they take on the Cardinals in Week 11.

During his radio hit on KIRO 97.3 FM Friday, Seahawks HC Pete Carroll said that QB Russell Wilson (finger) will start Week 10 at Green Bay. Carroll also said WR D'Wayne Eskridge (concussion) is likely to play, while RB Chris Carson (neck) is a game-time decision.

The Seahawks offense survived without Russ and appear to be on their way to being full strength for the first time since Week 1.

Russell Wilson is back. The eight-time Pro Bowl quarterback has been sidelined since fracturing a finger in his throwing hand in the Seattle Seahawks' loss to the Los Angeles Rams in Week 5, and has been on injured reserve ever since, working his way back to taking the field. His goal was to be ready for Week 10 when the Seahawks take on the Green Bay Packers, and he's achieved it, being medically cleared to start on Nov. 14, per CBS Sports NFL insider Jason La Canfora.

Wilson has gone through his pregame on-field routine each week the story said. With Smith under center the team went just 1-2 so Wilson is coming back just in time and he should resume his status as a fantasy QB1 starting this week.

Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson‘s recovery from surgery on his right middle finger took a step forward on Monday.

Wilson tweeted a picture of one of the pins that he had removed from his finger and captioned it “No more pin. Time to Win.”

The Seahawks have a bye this week and Wilson will be eligible to return when they face the Packers in Week 10, the story said. Week 10 seems to have been the target date for Wilson since the injury but we likely won't know more until the middle of next week once the team is back from their bye week.

With pins set to be removed from the injured finger within the week, Wilson is progressing along on schedule. If no setbacks, expect Wilson to return after the Week 9 bye to face Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers on the road.

Geno Smith will continue to make starts in Wilson’s absence.

Seahawks QB Russell Wilson (finger) has a chance to return in four weeks.

Four weeks would be earlier than the original thought from doctors that he could miss six weeks. "That's now the hope and, depending on some other factors, that's possible," according to Schefter's article. Four weeks is the best-case scenario for Wilson and the Seahawks. If that's the case, then he would only miss three games. Seattle has their bye in Week 9, so a return off the bye in Week 10 against the Packers is now possible. For now, it'll be Geno Smith against the Steelers, Saints and Jaguars. Smith went 10/17 for 131 yards with one touchdown and one interception on Thursday against the Rams. Week 6 against the Steelers will be the first game Wilson has ever missed since coming into the NFL in 2012, snapping a streak of 149 consecutive games played.

As described in the report, the surgery was "more complicated than expected." Wilson who tore a tendon in his finger on Thursday night, also suffered a fracture and a dislocation as well. The report predicted a timetable of six weeks, but there is a slight chance he returns following Seattle’s Week 8 bye.

Geno Smith will take over the Seahawks offense and displayed the ability to keep things ticking on Thursday Night against the Rams. However, one would expect this knocks down the ceiling of DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett. This is a situation to monitor in the upcoming weeks.
