Seattle Seahawks star receiver Tyler Lockett appears to have avoided a long-term injury, and is expected to be cleared to play for Week 12 against the Philadelphia Eagles.

Tyler Lockett has left the hospital and made the trip back to Seattle where he will be treated by team doctors. While the injury indeed sounded serious, it appears to only be a short term ailment. This will be a situation to monitor ahead of the team's Week 12 date with the Philadelphia Eagles. If he can log a full practice session prior to the game, Lockett will be WR1 against an Eagles defense surrendering the sixth most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers.

Tyler Lockett sustained a serious leg bruise during Monday’s win over the 49ers. He doesn’t require surgery and will have extra time to recover with the team on Bye in Week 11.

Fantasy owners will need to wait a bit before we can learn more about Lockett’s situation. It is great that surgery isn’t needed for the top WR for the Seahawks. If he were to miss any time DK Metcalf, Josh Gordon, and Malik Turner would be next up for Seattle to replace Lockett.

Tyler Lockett (knee) was hospitalized after Monday’s Week 10 contest against the 49ers due to a lower leg injury. “A pretty severe situation right now,” said Seahawks Head Coach Pete Carroll.

When asked about Lockett’s injury, Carroll also added “Well, I think there is a lot of swelling.” Lockett exited Monday’s game with an apparent lower leg injury and will be evaluated during the week. He hauled in three catches for 33 yards before exiting. The Seahawks are on a bye Week 11 and the extent of Lockett’s injury should be known later in the week.

Fantasy Impact

Lockett was limited at Friday's practice due to a hip injury, but he is all systems go for Sunday's matchup against a stingy 49ers defense. Despite the tough matchup, he is a borderline WR1 in Week 10.

Tyler Locket caught 13 passes for 152 yards and two touchdowns in the Seahawks' 40-34 Week 9 win over the Bucs.

Fantasy Impact

Lockett saw a whopping 18 targets in this gorgeous matchup, which is as many as he had in his previous three games combined. He remains hyper efficient and the bump in volume gave him the big fantasy performance. Things will get tougher next week versus the 49ers but Locket remains a WR1.
