2024 Fantasy Outlook
Following an underwhelming rookie campaign, Mafe came out of the gate firing in 2023 with 7.0 sacks, two pass breakups and a forced fumble through the first eight outings. Although he cooled off towards the end of the year, he consistently played more than 80 percent of the defensive snaps and totaled 9.0 sacks by the end of the season. The 25-year-old should maintain a premium role in 2024 in new DC Aden Durde's system, and he'll have high upside as a pass rusher once again, though his floor is low for a LB with a mere 2.8 tackles per game in two years as a pro.

Ready for Week 11
Mafe (knee) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the 49ers, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
The third-year linebacker from Minnesota opened the Seahawks' week of practice with consecutive limited sessions, but Dugar's report Friday suggests he'll play through the issue in the Week 11 divisional matchup. Mafe has recorded 23 total tackles, including 4.0 sacks, and one pass defended through seven appearances this season. Now that Mafe has returned to full health, he's expected to serve as Seattle's top edge rusher Sunday.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
A 2022 second-round pick, Mafe underwhelmed as a rookie with 41 tackles and three sacks through 17 games while averaging 24 snaps per game. Mafe has convincing athletic tools, but he will need to show immediate improvements through training camp and the preseason to maintain his role in 2023. The Seahawks still have Darrell Taylor, and they signed Uchenna Nwosu long term and drafted Derick Hall in the second round.
