  • Seahawks' Noah Fant: Questionable but 'trending well'

    Coach Mike Macdonald said Friday that Fant (groin), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game versus the Cardinals, is "trending well," and a decision on his upcoming availability will be made Saturday, Curtis Crabtree of Fox 13 Seattle reports.

    Fant has been sidelined for three weeks and two games due to a groin injury, but after he went from no activity Wednesday to some Thursday and full participation Friday, Macdonald's comments indicate the tight end has a decent chance to return to action this weekend. The Seahawks have a 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff Sunday, so a good portion of the Week 12 slate will be underway once the team posts its list of inactives about 90 minutes prior. AJ Barner would take on most of the TE reps for Seattle if Fant is inhibited or sidelined.

  • Seahawks' Noah Fant: Questionable to play Week 12

    Fant (groin) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Arizona, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.

    Fant missed the past two games, sandwiched around a Week 10 bye, and just returned to practice Thursday as a limited participant. The Seahawks are giving him at least some chance to play ahead of a 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff Sunday, with rookie AJ Barner on hand to fill in again if needed. Barner drew 11 targets the past two games while playing 91 and 85 percent of snaps, but the big uptick in opportunities yielded just six catches for 42 yards.

  • Seahawks' Noah Fant: Returns to practice Thursday

    Fant (groin) practiced in a limited capacity Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

    This marks Fant's first notable on-field work since Oct. 30 as he recovers from a groin injury that has sidelined him for Seattle's last two games. He may have to log a full practice Friday in order to emerge from Week 12 prep without a designation. In any case, if Fant is inhibited or sidelined Sunday against the Cardinals AJ Barner would be the biggest beneficiary among Seahawks tight ends.

  • Seahawks' Noah Fant: Still not practicing

    Fant (groin) was a non-participant at Wednesday's practice, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.

    Fant hasn't practiced since Oct. 30 due to a groin injury, resulting in a pair of absences (Weeks 9 and 11) sandwiched around a Week 10 bye. Reserve tight end Brady Russell (foot) also was held out of practice Wednesday, which leaves AJ Barner and Pharaoh Brown (elbow) as the healthy options at the position on the Seahawks' active roster at the moment. Fant will have two more sessions this week to put himself on a path to return to action Sunday against the Cardinals, but until he steps back on the practice field, his odds to suit up will be slim.

  • Seahawks' Noah Fant: Won't play this week

    Fant (groin) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the 49ers, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.

    Fant missed Seattle's final game before a Week 10 bye and now will sit out at least one more contest after failing to practice this week. With fourth-string tight end Brady Russell (foot) also ruled out, the Seahawks will rely on AJ Barner and Pharaoh Brown, likely giving the former most of the snaps and routes. Barner played 91 percent of snaps in a 26-20 loss to the Rams in Week 9, catching four of seven targets for 27 yards in his first career game with more than three targets or 48 percent snap share.

  • Seahawks' Noah Fant: Still not practicing

    Fant (groin) was a non-participant at Thursday's practice, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

    Fant is expected to miss time on either side of the Seahawks' Week 10 bye due to a groin injury, and the team can confirm has lack of availability for Sunday's game at San Francisco as soon as it posts its final Week 11 practice report Friday. Assuming that comes to pass, AJ Barner will be the primary beneficiary at tight end for Seattle.

  • Seahawks' Noah Fant: Doesn't practice Wednesday

    Fant (groin) didn't participate in practice Wednesday, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.

    When Fant was ruled out ahead of the Seahawks' Week 9 overtime loss to the Rams, head coach Mike Macdonald relayed that it was "going to be some time" regarding the tight end's recovery from a groin injury, according to Colin Gunther of the Seahawks' official site. Fant's lack of activity coming out of the team's Week 10 bye is worrisome for his availability for Sunday's game at San Francisco. Another absence from Fant would allow AJ Barner to continue to feature as Seattle's primary tight end.

  • Seahawks' Noah Fant: Status after bye in question

    Fant (groin) won't play Sunday against the Rams, and per coach Mike Macdonald, the tight end's status after a Week 10 bye isn't certain, Colin Gunther of the Seahawks' official site reports.

    In particular, Macdonald said Friday, "It's going to be some time. We don't anticipate him being on IR, but we are unsure of his availability after the bye right now." After injuring his groin at Wednesday's practice, Fant was a non-participant both Thursday and Friday before the Seahawks ruled him out for Week 9 action. In Fant's stead, the trio of AJ Barner, Pharaoh Brown and Brady Russell will man TE for the Seahawks.

  • Seahawks' Noah Fant: Out for Week 9

    Fant (groin) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Rams, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.

    Fant will miss a game for the first time this season right ahead of Seattle's Week 10 bye. His absence leaves more playing time for fellow tight ends AJ Barner, Pharaoh Brown and Brady Russell, with Barner being most likely of the bunch to have significant involvement in the passing game.

  • Seahawks' Noah Fant: Doesn't practice Thursday

    Fant (groin) didn't practice Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

    Considering Fant was listed as limited on Wednesday's practice report, he may have suffered the groin injury in the session that preceded its posting. In any case, his status will be one to monitor Friday to see if he enters the weekend with a designation ahead of Sunday's game versus the Rams. AJ Barner, Pharaoh Brown and Brady Russell would stand to benefit this weekend if Fant is inhibited or sidelined.

  • Seahawks' Noah Fant: Dealing with groin issue

    Fant practiced in a limited capacity Wednesday due to a groin injury, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

    Through eight games this season, Fant has surpassed a 50 percent snap share on seven occasions, resulting in a cumulative 27-285-0 receiving line on 32 targets. With receiver DK Metcalf (knee) sitting out Wednesday and wideout Tyler Lockett (oblique) being a limited participant due to a new health concern, three of the Seahawks' top pass catchers are banged up at the moment. Thursday's and Friday's sessions thus will be key to how the team's receiving corps will break down Sunday versus the Rams.

  • Seahawks' Noah Fant: Gains 22 yards in defeat

    Fant had three receptions (on four targets) for 22 yards in Sunday's 31-10 loss to Buffalo.

    Fant finished in a tie for third in terms of targets in a game during which Seattle could do little on offense. The veteran tight end was coming off a pair of 60-plus yard performances, so there is some deep-league value to be had. Fant shouldn't be considered much more than that heading into a Week 9 matchup against the Rams next Sunday.

  • Seahawks' Noah Fant: Elevated usage in win

    Fant brought in all four targets for 65 yards in the Seahawks' 34-14 win over the Falcons on Sunday.

    Fant finished tied for first in receptions and was second in receiving yards on the afternoon for the Seahawks. The veteran tight end was able to set a new season high in yardage in the process and now has three outings of 60-plus yards for the first time since the 2021 season. Fant could be involved at an elevated level again in a Week 8 home matchup against the Bills if DK Metcalf is forced to miss any time with the knee injury that prompted his exit from Sunday's game.
