Team news: Seattle Seahawks

Packers are listing RB Josh Jacobs and WR Christian Watson as questionable for Saturday night’s game in Chicago.

Related Players: Emanuel Wilson, Jayden Reed, Romeo Doubs, Matthew Golden

This is a great sign for Watson, considering how serious the injury looked immediately after the play. With how the Packers rotate all their receivers, Reed would still be in the fantasy conversation, even if Watson returns to the field. Watson himself might be a little more of a stay-away unless he's back to 100% earlier in the week; a "snap count" might be on the horizon for the deep threat.

If Jacobs does suit up, he'll be a must-start, but if he unexpectedly gets ruled out, Wilson will be a nice plug-in as an RB2 option.

Seahawks kicker Jason Myers made six field goals, including the 56-yard game-winner with 18 seconds remaining, in Sunday’s 18-16 win over the Colts. And he’s now on pace to kick more field goals in a season than any kicker, ever.

The all-time record for field goals in a season is 44, set by David Akers of the 49ers in 2011. Myers had made 37 field goals so far this season, putting him on pace to finish the season with 45.

Overall, Myers is 37-for-42 on field goals this season, a success rate of 88.1 percent, with a long field goal of 57 yards. He’s also 42-for-42 on extra points, the story said. The story also talked about how the Seahawks would rather be scoring touchdowns, but if Myers is your fantasy kicker, he's likely been helping you win games.

Packers coach Matt LaFleur said RB Josh Jacobs (knee) likely will miss his second straight day of practice, and they will see where he’s at tomorrow.

“He’s been battling through it. We’ll see.”

Wilson would more than likely get the RB1 treatment if Jacobs misses Week 15, and he delivered a huge 25.5-point performance last time that happened. Make sure he's not available on your waiver wires as a potential fantasy spot-start option.

Packers RB Josh Jacobs is off the injury report and will return to action Thursday at Detroit.

We might temper our expectations for a full "normal" Jacobs role after Wilson played so well in his steed. Consider Jacobs in more of an RB2, with Wilson hanging around as an RB4 role with more usage than before Jacobs' injury.

Josh Jacobs will not practice today but LaFleur isn’t ruling him out for Sunday just yet.

Related Players: Emanuel Wilson, Chris Brooks

Still early in the week, but we're expecting this to be the Emanuel Wilson show if/when Jacobs is ruled out. Wilson out-snapped Brooks 39-to-5 in the Week 11 game Jacobs missed, putting the former in RB2 territory.

Lost in the interceptions and the frantic comeback by the Seahawks on Sunday was another strong game for running back Kenneth Walker III.

That led to this comment Monday from head coach Mike Macdonald, one that could also have reverberations for the future.

“I think Ken’s showing that he’s earning more opportunities to get the ball,” Macdonald said.

Macdonald reiterated that wasn’t necessarily a statement on Charbonnet, who has been sharing playing time with Walker — Walker has 284 snaps to Charbonnet’s 279 — but more a reflection of how Walker has been playing of late. Walker went 16-67-0 and added 44 yards receiving. He had a 15-yard rushing TD called back on a penalty. The story added Walker has 19 runs of 10 yards or better, which is ninth in the NFL according to PFF. He's just 18th in carries however, so it seems the Seahawks are hoping a few more touches will produce even better numbers. Charbonnet had 11 carries for 37 yards vs. the Rams.

Josh Jacobs has a left knee contusion and could play against the Vikings on Sunday, LaFleur said.

“Potentially. We’ll see where he’s at,” Matt LaFleur said, via Weston Hodkiewicz of the team website. “It’s a contusion. It’s more or less trying to get the swelling down. Unfortunately, that’s a pretty hard surface over there [at MetLife Stadium], and that’s a byproduct of that.”

Jacobs avoided a major knee injury, which is the most important news. Jacobs left the game in the first half after rushing for 40 yards on seven carries in the win over the Giants. Wilson may be some extra work this week even if Jacobs plays, but the injury reports should give us a better idea of his chances. It's a big divisional game against the Vikings in Week 12.

Packers standout RB Josh Jacobs’ knee is structurally sound.

Good news for the Packers and Jacobs' fantasy owners. Rapoport went on to say Jacobs is considered day to day, and that tag gives him a shot to suit up in Week 12. But, Rapoport added in his post Jacobs could end up missing Week 12's game against the Vikings. The good news is no surgery is needed. We'll keep an eye on the injury report this week, but the Vikings-Packers game is an early Sunday game which should give owners time to adjust lineups if he's a game-time call. Wilson should get a bulk of the workload if Jacobs can't play. Brooks has seen limited time this season while Lloyd has been questionable to play that past three weeks with a hamstring injury, but has yet to play and see a snap this season.

Seattle’s already strong passing game has just picked up another big-play threat.

The Saints are trading wide receiver Rashid Shaheed to the Seahawks, according to NFL Network.

Related players: Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Cooper Kupp, Tory Horton, Chris Olave, Brandin Cooks, Devaughn Vele, Juwan Johnson

Shaheed was a strong trade candidate by many before the deadline and he's now a deep threat for the Seahawks. This likely pushes Horton to the team's WR4 assuming Kupp is back healthy at some point. Horton was just coming off an impressive game against the Commanders with Kupp out. Meanwhile for the Saints, Olave remains at least for now and is the team's WR1, but behind him there are lots of questions as Cook and Vele seem to be next up. Johnson, the Saints TE, looks to be the second target overall in the passing game.

LaFleur on if MarShawn Lloyd (IR-DTR) will be back anytime soon: "I wouldn't count on that, anytime soon."

Dontayvion Wicks won't practice today.

Related Players: Emanuel Wilson

Looks like Wicks is in jeopardy of missing his second-straight game, while the injury bug won't be leaving Lloyd, who has hardly seen an NFL field since going in the third round of the 2024 Draft. Neither significantly impacts the rest of the Packers' fantasy options.
