The Seattle Seahawks will face the Arizona Cardinals in Week 12. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, especially regarding WR Tyler Lockett.
Is Tyler Lockett Playing in Week 12?
The Seattle Seahawks gave veteran wideout Tyler Lockett the day off on Wednesday. He returned to practice in full on Thursday.
On Friday, Lockett was limited, but the Seahawks listed his injury as rest/foot. Regardless, he was removed from the club’s injury report and is good to go against the Cardinals in Week 12.
We’ll continue to monitor the Seahawks’ injury report. You can also visit and bookmark our NFL Injury Tracker and Fantasy News Tracker for the latest updates.
Should You Start or Sit Tyler Lockett in Week 12?
Tyler Lockett entered this season trending in the wrong direction, and the recent emergence of Jaxon Smith-Njigba has all but ended any realistic hope of him projecting as a Flex option moving forward.
Chemistry with Russell Wilson on those deep passes was what made Lockett special for years, but the connection with Geno Smith simply isn’t the same and Father Time is a natural concern for a 32-year-old.
If you’re rounding out your roster with Lockett, I think you’re betting off streaming options that show sparks on a weekly basis. For me, Jalen Coker is a nice option for this weekend, and I’d make that move to see where the rookie goes as opposed to holding onto past production from Lockett.
