Seattle Seahawks tight end Noah Fant has come alive in recent weeks. Fant has ten receptions in his last two games combined and he has at least 63 receiving yards in both games. He has a chance to deliver numbers like that once again in Week 8 when the Seahawks host the Buffalo Bills. The Seahawks are likely going to hand the ball off quite a bit given the Bills' poor rushing defense. However, the Bills offense is potent and should force the Seahawks to air it out at least a fair amount. Top Seahawks target DK Metcalf (knee) does not look like he will play in this game. The Seahawks are very top-heavy in the wide receiver room and Fant would likely be the next man up in line for targets. He should be a safe play this week, especially in the tight end landscape we currently find ourselves in.
Seattle Seahawks tight end Noah Fant (knee) stayed limited in practice on Thursday for the second straight day this week. Fant should be fine to play this Sunday against the visiting Buffalo Bills and could once again see increased targets if top wideout DK Metcalf (knee) is unable to suit up. The 26-year-old tight end caught all four of his targets for a season-high 65 yards in the team's Week 7 victory over the Atlanta Falcons in a game in which Metcalf was injured and did not return. The Bills have been a middle-of-the-pack matchup for opposing tight ends in 2024, allowing 40 catches, 316 yards and one touchdown to the position in seven games. Fant now has three games with 60-plus receiving yards in 2024 and should be treated as a TE2 with upside in fantasy if Metcalf is inactive on Sunday.
Seattle Seahawks tight end Noah Fant (knee) was listed as a limited practice participant in the first practice of the week on Wednesday due to a knee injury. It's something to monitor, but as long as Fant doesn't suffer a setback later this week, we feel good about his chances of being active this Sunday versus the Buffalo Bills. The 26-year-old had a team-high four catches for 65 yards in the Week 7 win over the Atlanta Falcons. Fant still has yet to find the end zone this year, but he has a total of 10 catches on 10 targets for 128 yards over the last two weeks. He could be another good bet for sneaky production this weekend against the Bills if receiver DK Metcalf (knee) is unable to play. Even if Metcalf is active on Sunday, Fant should be viewed as a worthwhile TE2 streaming target for fantasy managers.
Seattle Seahawks tight end Noah Fant had another good day for fantasy in the Seahawks' Week 7 win over the Atlanta Falcons. Fant caught all four of his targets for 65 yards. Fant has been inconsistent in 2024. However, when he hits, he hits for double-digit fantasy points. Fant now has two straight games with at least 63 receiving yards. It could indicate that the Seahawks are committed to feeding him the ball more in 2024. Fant is undeniably a talented tight end. The Seahawks have simply preferred to feed their talented trio of wide receivers in the passing game. For now, it is likely worth rostering Fant just in case his consistency sticks. Additionally, fantasy managers should monitor the status of wide receiver DK Metcalf (knee). If Metcalf were to miss time, then Fant could be a main beneficiary in the passing game.
Seattle Seahawks tight end Noah Fant is coming off his best game of the season. In Week 6 against the San Francisco 49ers, Fant caught six passes for 63 yards. It was only Fant's second game of the season with double-digit fantasy points. In fact, it was only his second game of the season with more than 5.4 fantasy points. Fant enters the Seahawks' Week 7 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons with major question marks in fantasy football. While Fant could see solid target volume in a potentially high-scoring game, he could also fall to the back burner as the Seahawks continue to feature their talented wide receivers. Fant is likely already on your waivers and he should stay there. He would not be a consistent fantasy option unless multiple of the Seahawks' preferred weapons were to go down due to injury.
