DeMarcus Lawrence DE | SEA
Seahawks' DeMarcus Lawrence: Notches another sack
Lawrence recorded two solo tackles, a sack and a forced fumble in Sunday's 31-27 win over the Rams in the NFC Championship Game.
Lawrence has 2.0 sacks and three forced fumbles through two postseason games. The 33-year-old's leadership has been a key part of this defense's success, and he draws a fantastic opportunity in the Super Bowl versus the Patriots, as QB Drake Maye has been sacked 15 times through three playoff games.

Jason Myers K | SEA
Seahawks' Jason Myers: Another perfect outing
Myers hit a 27-yard field goal and all four extra-point tries in Sunday's 31-27 win over the Rams in the NFC Championship Game.
Myers has hit all three field-goal attempts and all nine extra-point tries through two postseason games. During the regular season, he connected on 41 of 48 field-goal tries, including 22 of 27 (81.3 percent) from beyond 40 yards. The Seahawks will face the Patriots in the Super Bowl on Sunday, Feb. 8.

Jordan Whittington WR | LAR
Rams' Jordan Whittington: Returned to Sunday's game
Whittington (chest) was cleared to return to Sunday's NFC Championship Game loss to the Seahawks.
Whittington suffered a chest injury late in the third quarter of Sunday's 31-27 loss to Seattle but was given the green light to return in the fourth quarter. The second-year pro played 19 snaps (three on offense, 16 on special teams) and returned five kickoffs for 116 yards. Whittington ended the 2025 regular season with 18 catches (on 25 targets) for 171 yards along with 434 yards on 17 kickoff returns across 17 games.

Dareke Young WR | LV
Seahawks' Dareke Young: Key special-teams play
Young recovered a fumble and made a tackle in Sunday's 31-27 win over the Rams in the NFC Championship Game.
Young played just one offensive snap as the team's No. 5 wide receiver, but he made a massive play on special teams, recovering a muffed punt in the third quarter. Seahawks WR Jake Bobo caught a 17-yard touchdown pass on the next play. Young has been an outstanding gunner on special teams this season and will look to make a similar impact in the Super Bowl versus the Patriots.

Eric Saubert TE | SEA
Seahawks' Eric Saubert: No targets in win
Saubert wasn't targeted in Sunday's 31-27 win over the Rams in the NFC Championship Game.
Saubert served as the No. 2 tight end behind AJ Barner, handling 38 of 67 offensive snaps (57 percent). His workload could get reduced if Elijah Arroyo is active for the Super Bowl versus the Patriots, but regardless, he's not a dependable fantasy option with just 41 receiving yards through the regular season and postseason.

AJ Barner TE | SEA
Seahawks' AJ Barner: Quiet in win
Barner caught two of three targets for 13 yards in Sunday's 31-27 win over the Rams in the NFC Championship Game.
Barner didn't record a catch in the NFC divisional-round win over the 49ers, and he had a limited role in this contest despite playing 64 of 67 offensive snaps. The second-year tight end reeled in six touchdown passes over 17 regular-season games, so he'll have some upside due to his role in the Super Bowl versus the Patriots.
-
Jake Bobo WR | SEA
Seahawks' Jake Bobo: Scores in title game
Bobo caught a 17-yard touchdown in Sunday's 31-27 win over the Rams in the NFC Championship Game.
Bobo handled just 13 offensive snaps as the team's No. 4 wide receiver, but he made it count with an impressive touchdown catch on the Seahawks' second drive of the third quarter. His role will remain limited in the Super Bowl, and it's worth noting that he has just four receptions through 13 games this year.

George Holani RB | SEA
Seahawks' George Holani: Six touches in return
Holani rushed three times for four yards and caught three of four targets for 27 yards in Sunday's 31-27 win over the Rams in the NFC Championship Game.
Holani's return from a hamstring injury he suffered Week 12 came just in time, as Zach Charbonnet suffered a torn ACL in the team's divisional-round win over the 49ers. Thus, Holani served as the No. 2 running back behind Kenneth Walker and handled a 34 percent snap share. The second-year running back out of Boise State previously handled kick-return duties, too, but the Seahawks traded for Rashid Shaheed, who has that job locked down heading into the Super Bowl versus the Patriots.

Velus Jones Jr. WR | SEA
Seahawks' Velus Jones: Reverts to Seattle's practice squad
Jones reverted to the Seahawks' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Jones and Cam Akers were both elevated to the Seahawks' active roster Saturday, though the former ended up being a healthy scratch for Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the Rams. Super Bowl LX against the Patriots on Sunday, Feb. 8 will be Jones' last opportunity to be elevated to Seattle's active roster this season.

Cam Akers RB | SEA
Seahawks' Cam Akers: Back to practice squad
Akers reverted to the Seahawks' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Akers and Velus Jones were elevated from the practice squad to the active roster for Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the Rams, though only the former was active. Akers served as Seattle's RB3 behind Kenneth Walker and George Holani, with Akers logging three snaps (one on offense, two on special teams) while not showing up on the box score otherwise in Sunday's 31-27 win. Akers could be elevated to the Seahawks' active roster for Super Bowl LX against the Patriots on Sunday, Feb. 8.
