  • Tory Horton WR | SEA

    Seahawks' Tory Horton: Blanked in win

    Horton didn't catch his lone target in Sunday's 20-12 win over the Jaguars.

    Horton scored three offensive touchdowns over the previous four games, but he failed to catch a pass for the first time since Week 1 in this outing. The passing game continues to rely heavily on Jaxon Smith-Njigba, and with Cooper Kupp still healthy, Horton's usage likely will remain volatile moving forward. The rookie remains relevant on special teams, where he has returned 11 punts for 171 yards and a touchdown.

  • Elijah Arroyo TE | SEA

    Seahawks' Elijah Arroyo: Snares one pass

    Arroyo caught one of two targets for six yards in Sunday's 20-12 win over the Jaguars.

    Arroyo continues to work as the No. 2 tight end behind AJ Barner, who has consistently played around 80 percent of the offensive snaps while producing 17 receptions for 205 yards and four touchdowns. Meanwhile, Arroyo has logged more than 50 percent of the snaps just once this season, and he has yet to catch more than two passes in a game. The rookie is an intriguing athlete who could still have a bright future in the league, but it will be difficult to depend on him for fantasy purposes until his usage improves.

  • Ernest Jones LB | SEA

    Seahawks' Ernest Jones: Solid performance in Week 6

    Jones recorded eight total tackles (four solo) and one pass defended in Sunday's 20-12 win over the Jaguars.

    Jones dealt with a shoulder injury heading into the Week 6 contest but still performed well, finishing third on the team with eight total stops. The 25-year-old is having a great start to his first full season as a Seahawk, recording 48 total tackles, including 0.5 sacks, and four passes defended, with two interceptions, over the team's first six games. He's been all over the field for a great Seattle defense and projects to be a viable IDP option in the Week 7 matchup against the Texans.

  • Seahawks' Byron Murphy: Continues to impress in Week 6

    Murphy recorded four total tackles (one solo), including 2.0 sacks, during Sunday's 20-12 win over the Jaguars.

    Murphy tied DeMarcus Lawrence for the team lead in sacks during Sunday's win. The 2024 first-round pick from Texas has had an incredible start to his second NFL season, tallying 23 total tackles, including 4.5 sacks, through Seattle's first six games. He appears to be emerging as one of the league's premier interior pass rushers and will look to build on another strong performance when the Seahawks face the Texans in Week 7.

  • Seahawks' DeMarcus Lawrence: Gets after quarterback in Week 6

    Lawrence recorded five total tackles (two solo), including 2.0 sacks, in Sunday's 20-12 win over the Jaguars.

    The veteran edge rusher from Boise State was one of five Seahawks to take down Trevor Lawrence during Sunday's win, recording his first two sacks of the season. Lawrence has appeared in five games for Seattle in 2025, recording 17 total tackles across 185 defensive snaps. He's expected to continue starting opposite Boye Mafe to form the Seahawks' top edge-rush tandem in a Week 7 matchup against the Texans.

  • Drake Thomas LB | SEA

    Seahawks' Drake Thomas: Does it all vs. Jags

    Thomas recorded nine total tackles (two solo), including 1.0 sacks, and one pass defended in Sunday's 20-12 win over the Jaguars.

    The NC State product played a season-high 63 defensive snaps and made the most of his increased opportunities, tying rookie Nick Emmanwori for the most tackles on the Seahawks' defense in Sunday's win. Thomas has now tallied 27 total tackles, including 2.0 sacks, and two passes defended over Seattle's first six games this season. He's expected to remain an integral part of the team's defense in a Week 7 matchup against the Texans.

  • Packers' Edgerrin Cooper: Another double-digit tackle outing

    Cooper recorded 11 total tackles (four solo) in Sunday's 27-18 win over the Bengals.

    Cooper led the game in total tackles Sunday, brining his season total to 44. The second-year pro from Texas A&M has established himself as one of the Packers' top defensive playmakers, missing just one defensive snap through the team's first five games. He's expected to continue wreaking havoc on opposing offenses when the Packers travel to Arizona in Week 7.

  • Quay Walker LB | LV

    Packers' Quay Walker: Solid effort in win

    Walker tallied eight total tackles (five solo) in Sunday's 27-18 win over the Bengals.

    The 25-year-old linebacker finished second on the Packers in total tackles during Sunday's win, trailing Edgerrin Cooper's 11-stop performance. Through Green Bay's first five games this season, Walker has recorded a team-leading 50 total tackles and two passes defended while playing 100 percent of the defensive snaps. He's expected to remain a viable IDP option when the Packers face the Cardinals in Week 7.

  • Blake Cashman LB | MIN

    Vikings' Blake Cashman: Practice window opens

    The Vikings designated Cashman (hamstring) from return from the injured reserve Monday.

    The veteran linebacker has missed Minnesota's last four games after being placed on IR following Week 1 due to a hamstring injury. After a Week 6 bye, Cashman is ready to practice again, and the Vikings will now have 21 days to evaluate him before he'll need to be added back to the 53-man roster or remain on IR for the rest of the season. Once Cashman returns to full health, he's expected to slot back into a starting role at linebacker.

  • J.J. McCarthy QB | NYG

    Vikings' J.J. McCarthy: Will practice this week

    Vikings coach Kevin O'Connell said that McCarthy (ankle) will practice in some capacity ahead of the Sunday's matchup with the Eagles, Alec Lewis of The Athletic reports.

    McCarthy reportedly took a notable step forward in his recovery during Minnesota's Week 6 bye, but it remains to be seen whether the second-year pro will be healthy enough that his mobility isn't impeded for Week 7, which is a benchmark O'Connell has mentioned he'll need to pass before being cleared for a return to the lineup. Previously, O'Connell had indicated that the Vikings want McCarthy to log a full week of practice before clearing him. Per Ben Goessling of The Minnesota Star Tribune, O'Connell declined to name a starter for Week 7 on Monday but confirmed that veteran Carson Wentz still is recovering from the injury to his left, non-throwing shoulder that he suffered Week 5.
