May return to practice Thursday Metcalf (knee) won't practice Wednesday, but coach Mike Macdonald said he's optimistic the wideout will return Thursday and then play in Sunday's game against the Rams, Curtis Crab...

Impact Metcalf didn't practice last week and ended up missing a 31-10 loss to the Bills after suffering an MCL sprain the week before. It isn't thought to be an especially severe sprain, but Macdonald's optimism should probably be taken with a grain of salt, especially with a bye week coming up after Sunday's game and then two more divisional games scheduled on the other side of the bye (Week 11 at SF, Week 12 vs. ARZ).

Impact The Seahawks plan to see how Metcalf looks when he's able return to practice, and then go from there, but at this stage it looks like the wideout has a chance to play this weekend after being inactive in Week 8. In his absence in Seattle's loss to the Bills, Jake Bobo saw added snaps alongside Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Tyler Lockett.

Inactive in Week 8 Metcalf (knee) is inactive for Sunday's Week 8 matchup against the Bills.

Impact The star wideout was trending toward an absence throughout the week, having missed every practice of Week 8 prep after he sustained an MCL sprain late in the Week 7 win over the Falcons. With Metcalf's inactive status now official, Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Tyler Lockett are set to operate as the top two wide receiver targets for Geno Smith, while Kenneth Walker and Noah Fant could also be the beneficiaries of a slight bump in targets. Meanwhile, Metcalf will turn his attention toward a potential return to action in a key Week 9 divisional matchup against the Rams next Sunday.

Doubtful for Week 8 Metcalf (knee) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game versus the Bills, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Impact Metcalf emerged from this past Sunday's win in Atlanta with a minor MCL sprain that didn't allow him to practice Wednesday or Thursday. With an absence seemingly looming for Metcalf, Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Tyler Lockett should experience corresponding increases in target share this weekend, while Jake Bobo, Dareke Young and Laviska Shenault will be the other candidates to garner reps at the wide receiver for the Seahawks.

Impact Metcalf's chances of suiting up Week 8 will rest largely on the extent of his participation level at Friday's practice, but it sounds like the Seahawks won't have any updates on the star wide receiver's health until then. It's been reported that Metcalf suffered a Grade 1 MCL sprain during Seattle's win over the Falcons in Week 7, an injury of lesser severity, but there's no guarantee he'll be able to avoid missing any time. Tyler Lockett and Jaxon Smith-Njigba will lead Geno Smith's wide receiver room if Metcalf can't go versus Buffalo, with Jake Bobo also stepping up in three-wide sets.

MCL sprain confirmed by coach Coach Mike Macdonald confirmed Monday that Metcalf has a "minor MCL" sprain, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Impact Per the report, it doesn't look like a long-term injury for Metcalf, with Macdonald noting that the wideout will do everything he can to try to play Sunday against the Bills. In any case, added context regarding Metcalf's Week 8 status will arrive no later than Wednesday when the Seahawks resume practice.

Week-to-week with MCL sprain Metcalf (knee) suffered a sprained MCL in Sunday's win over Atlanta and is week-to-week, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Impact Schefter reports it's a Grade 1 MCL sprain for the wideout. Metcalf exited Sunday's win over the Falcons early in the fourth quarter, finishing the day with a 4-99-1 receiving line on seven targets. He was carted to the locker room, and coach Mike Macdonald said afterward that Metcalf's injury "doesn't look too bad," John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports. If forced to miss game action, Jake Bobo would be next up for snaps in three-wide sets for Seattle and would be worth keeping an eye on in fantasy playing in one of the most pass-heavy offenses.

Impact Metcalf exited this Week 7 matchup in the fourth quarter and eventually needed a cart to get to the locker room. Prior to his departure, he reeled in four of seven targets for 99 yards and one touchdown. Considering Macdonald's comments, Metcalf likely isn't in danger of missing any time, but Seattle likely will do its due diligence to ensure the health concern won't impact his availability moving forward.
