More teams have reached out about Russell Wilson, but the #Seahawks have shown no inclination to trade their star QB, whose media tour continues. @nflnetwork

Russell Wilson is under contract with Seattle for three more seasons, and does not have a trade clause in his contract. The Seahawks seem to not be taking any of these inquiries seriously, so unless we see a 180 from the organization, Wilson should be under center for Seattle in 2021.

The Seahawks elevated RB Alex Collins from the practice squad for tomorrow's playoff game against the Rams.

The Seattle RB room is kind of crowded, but Alex Collins did get to do one Irish touchdown dance in Week 17. He could be a cheap contrarian option in DFS for Saturday's contest.

Seahawks RB Carlos Hyde is questionable with a non-COVID related illness, according to John Boyle of the Seattle Seahawks.

Hyde has been the primary backup for Seattle and would be a schematic loss while the Seahawks try to lock in the top seed in the NFC.

Josh Gordon is officially again a Seahawk.

The seventh-year veteran receiver was removed from the commissioner’s exempt list Monday and added to the team’s active 53-player roster with coach Pete Carroll saying the expectation is that he will play Sunday against the Los Angeles Rams.

Carroll also said veteran tight end Greg Olsen “is returning this week’’ after having practiced last week.

Carroll said the team is planning the week like Gordon has a chance to contribute. For fantasy purposes, he's probably a bit of a risk especially since it's the finals for most leagues, but the story said Gordon could resume his role as the team's WR3. That would mean passing Moore in the pecking order. Moore has played about 46% of the snaps this year and is having a career year as far as receptions go. Gordon has not played since last Dec 15 at Carolina.

As for Olsen, he practiced last week but wasn't activated so one can assume he was close. Carroll said via the story, assuming Olsen makes it through the practice week that “he’ll be back in, ready to go.’’ Olsen suffered a plantar fascia injury on Nov. 19 against Arizona and was then placed on injured reserve.

Seahawks WR Josh Gordon is set to rejoin the team on Monday.

Gordon was reinstated a few weeks ago but has adhered to the terms of his conditional reinstatement and is now set to rejoin the team on Monday and is on track to practice and potentially play in Week 16 against the Rams. Pelissero reports Gordon weighed in at 238 pounds with 7% body fat, which is incredible. It's a noteworthy add to the Seahawks, but he likely won't eat much into D.K. Metcalf or Tyler Lockett to be a fantasy factor, especially in Championship Week.

Seahawks RB Rashaad Penny (knee) is set to make his season debut in Week 15 against the Washington Football Team.

Penny is finally back after tearing his ACL near the end of last season, but coach Pete Carroll has been very happy with how Penny has been looking recently in practice. Penny will likely work in with Carlos Hyde backing up and spelling Chris Carson, but it will still be good to see him on the field in any capacity.
