Noah Fant - Page 5 - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Competition arrives via draft Fant could face competition for the starting job after the Seahawks selected Elijah Arroyo (knee) in the second round of the 2025 NFL Draft.

Impact A 2019 first-round pick, Fant's career has never truly taken off, as his best marks for receiving were in 2020 when he posted a 62-673-3 line, and he has scored just one touchdown over the past two seasons with the Seahawks. Thus, it's not surprising that the Seahawks addressed tight end early in the draft after also taking AJ Barner in the fourth round last year. Arroyo may take some time to develop, but he looks like the Seahawks' long-term plan at the position.

Scores first TD in Week 18 Fant corralled five of six targets for 63 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 30-25 win over the Rams.

Impact Fant saved his best for last in 2024 after scoring his first touchdown in the Seahawks' season finale. The veteran tight end finishes the season with a modest 53-563-1 receiving line in 14 starts for Seattle, with his lack of touchdowns being the biggest drawback. Fant remains under contract for the 2025 season, but he will have to fend off 2024 fourth-round pick AJ Barner for the starting job after the latter also hit pay dirt in Sunday's victory.

Team-high receiving yardage in win Fant secured four of five targets for 43 yards in the Seahawks' 6-3 win over the Bears on Thursday night.

Impact Fant led the Seahawks in receptions and receiving yards, contributing his highest catch total since Week 6 in the process. Half of the veteran tight end's catches and 25 of his receiving yards were sandwiched around the two-minute warning during the Seahawks' final drive of the first half, a march that culminated in a Jason Myers field goal. Fant has at least three catches in nine consecutive contests heading into a Week 18 road matchup against the Rams on Sunday, Jan. 5 that could decide the NFC West champion.

'TNF' Prime Vision Breaks Down Noah Fant's Delayed Route Reception Seattle Seahawks tight end Noah Fant catches a 12-yard reception from quarterback Geno Smith Thursday against the Chicago Bears.

DECEMBER 27, 2024 • SEAHAWKS.COM

Full participant Tuesday Fant (knee) was estimated to be a full participant at the Seahawks' walkthrough Tuesday, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.

Impact Fant was a limited participant at the team's first walkthrough of the week Monday, so his increase in participation Tuesday seems to suggest he's all set to play in Thursday night's matchup with Chicago. The tight end has been dealing with a knee issue for a couple of weeks, but it hasn't forced him to miss any action. Fant has caught 12 of 21 targets for 109 yards over the last four contests following a three-game absence with a groin injury.

DECEMBER 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Deemed limited Monday due to knee Seattle estimated Fant (knee) as a limited practice participant Monday, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.

Impact The Seahawks didn't actually practice Monday, so Fant's status was an estimation of his level of participation had a practice been held. The veteran tight end dealt with a knee injury last week as well, so he's likely still working through the same issue. Fant was able to suit up Sunday versus Minnesota and logged 75 percent of Seattle's offensive snaps, and unless he's had a setback it's likely that he'll be able to take the field this Thursday against Chicago.

DECEMBER 23, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Gains 50 yards in Sunday's loss Fant (knee) brought in three of six targets for 50 yards in Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Vikings.

Impact Fant finished the contest with his third highest receiving total of the season after being limited in the practice week with a knee injury. The veteran tight end did suffer a theoretical loss when rookie backup A.J. Barner (2-13-1) vultured a potential touchdown in Sunday's loss. Fant is still the preferred fantasy option in terms of Seattle options at tight end, but the split in production limits his usage to deep formats in Thursday's tilt against Chicago.

Full practice Thursday Fant (knee) practiced in full Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Impact This follows a limited showing at Wednesday's session for Fant. Since sitting out three games from Weeks 9-12 due to a groin injury, he's had only modest results in Seattle box scores, accounting for a 9-59-0 line on 15 targets over the last three contests.

DECEMBER 20, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Limited by knee injury Fant practiced in a limited capacity Wednesday due to a knee injury, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.

Impact Fant has exactly three catches in four straight contests, compiling a 12-81-0 line on 19 targets during that stretch. He's now enduring some practice restrictions to kick off Week 16 prep, but there's been no indication he's in danger of sitting out Sunday against the Vikings.

Minimal output on seven targets Fant had three receptions on seven targets for 15 yards in Sunday's 30-13 loss to Green Bay.

Impact Fant struggled mightily despite seeing a season-best seven targets in Sunday's lopsided loss. Much of the blame can be placed on backup quarterback Sam Howell's poor play (5-14, 24 yards, INT), who was forced into action early in the second half after Geno Smith (knee) was injured. If the former is asked to start in Week 16, Fant's marginal fantasy value may evaporate completely against the Vikings next Sunday.

Gains 18 yards Sunday Fant had three receptions on four targets for 18 yards in Sunday's 30-18 win over the Cardinals.

Impact Fant grabbed three catches in consecutive games since returning from a layoff due to a groin injury. The veteran tight end has averaged 22.0 yards in those two contests with no touchdowns scored, resulting in mediocre fantasy production. Rookie tight end AJ Barner remained in the mix with a 13-yard reception Sunday, further cutting into Fant's fantasy value. The 27-year-old is only a deep-league option heading into next Sunday's tilt against Green Bay.

Three catches in return Fant caught three of four targets for 26 yards in Sunday's 26-21 win over the Jets.

Impact Fant returned to the lineup after a three-game absence due to a groin injury. He was still the clear No. 1 tight end with a 68 percent snap share, but AJ Barner is gaining some ground with a 40 percent share. Fant is still seeking his first touchdown of the season, and he has yet to post more than 65 yards in a game.

Logs full practice Wednesday Fant (groin) practiced fully Wednesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Impact Going back to last week, Fant has put together back-to-back uncapped sessions, indicating he's past the groin injury that has sidelined him the last three games. Prior to his absence, he regularly paced Seahawks tight ends en route to a 27-285-0 line on 32 targets during the first eight contests of the campaign. Fant likely will retain such a role Sunday at the Jets.
