2024 Fantasy Outlook
Fant re-signed with Seattle on a two-year, $21 million contract in the offseason, while fellow tight ends Will Dissly and Colby Parkinson both left in free agency. Dissly and Parkinson cut into Fant’s production substantially in 2024, combining for 419 yards and three touchdowns while Fant posted career lows with 414 yards and no TDs despite starting all 17 games. Fant had 486 yards and four TDs with Seattle in 2022 and averaged 635 yards and 3.3 touchdowns in three years with the Broncos before that, so he’s set up well for a rebound campaign now that blocking tight end Pharaoh Brown and fourth-round pick AJ Barner are the main competition for snaps/targets. Fant broke a bone in his hand in last season’s finale, but he's missed only three games through five seasons and should be healthy long before training camp. Read Past Outlooks

ANALYSIS
When Fant was ruled out ahead of the Seahawks' Week 9 overtime loss to the Rams, head coach Mike Macdonald relayed that it was "going to be some time" regarding the tight end's recovery from a groin injury, according to Colin Gunther of the Seahawks' official site. Fant's lack of activity coming out of the team's Week 10 bye is worrisome for his availability for Sunday's game at San Francisco. Another absence from Fant would allow AJ Barner to continue to feature as Seattle's primary tight end.

Past Fantasy Outlooks

2020
2019
Fant had at least 562 yards in each of his first three seasons after Denver drafted him 20th overall in 2019, but he then dropped to career lows for targets (63) and yards (486) in his first year with the Seahawks despite playing all 17 games. Seattle used a rotation at tight end, with Will Dissly and later Colby Parkinson -- both still on the team -- subbing in frequently. Fant played at least half the offensive snaps in every game but exceeded 65 percent only three times. When he was on the field, Fant was the third choice in a top-heavy passing game, behind WRs DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett. Seattle then drafted WR Jaxon Smith-Njigba 20th overall in April, likely adding another player above Fant in the pecking order.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Officially sidelined in Week 9
Fant has been ruled out for Sunday's Week 9 clash against the Rams due to a groin injury, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Fant will be one of two key pass catchers unavailable for Geno Smith, as DK Metcalf has also been ruled out with his knee injury. In Fant's case, the injury occurred during practice this week, and head coach Mike Macdonald noted Friday it was "going to be some time" before the veteran tight end returns, although an IR stint isn't expected.
