TRAVIS HOMER NEWS

Dealing with knee sprain Coach Pete Carroll said Monday that Homer (illness) is dealing with a knee sprain, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Impact Homer missed Sunday's win over the Rams due to an illness, but with Kenneth Walker (ankle) and DeeJay Dallas (ankle) now both also banged up, his status becomes more crucial heading into a Week 14 matchup against the Panthers. Carroll didn't allude to Homer's chances of being available versus Carolina, though he did note Walker hasn't been ruled out yet after undergoing an MRI on Monday.

Out for Sunday Homer (illness/knee) has been downgraded to out and will not play in Sunday's matchup against the Rams, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.

Impact Homer played just 13 offensive snaps last week in Sunday's loss to the Raiders, but he totaled four touches (two carries, two receptions) during his time on the field, so this could be relevant for Seattle's backfield. Expect DeeJay Dallas and Tony Jones to operate in a backup tandem behind Kenneth Walker.

Uncertain for Sunday Homer (illness/knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Rams, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.

Impact Kenneth Walker figures to continue dominating carries in any case, but Homer's absence would have some impact on Seattle's gameplan for third downs and the two-minute drill, with DeeJay Dallas perhaps not as good of a blocker. While he scored a touchdown in last week's overtime contest, Homer typically doesn't get many touches even when he logs a decent number of snaps.

Remains sidelined Thursday Homer (illness/knee) did not participate in the Seahawks' practice Thursday, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.

Impact Homer missed his second practice in a row after popping up with an illness that is making the rounds in Seattle's locker room ahead of Week 13. The 24-year-old was one of eight Seahawks players to not practice due to the ailment, but he'll still have one more chance to improve his status before Friday's final injury report. With Tony Jones (illness) also sidelined Thursday, DeeJay Dallas could stand to see increased usage if he ends up as the only available running back behind starter Kenneth Walker.

Sits out practice Wednesday Homer (illness/knee) was a non-participant during practice Wednesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Impact Homer played 34 total snaps during Sunday's loss to the Raiders, though he appears to have come down with an illness since this contest. While the nature of this ailment is still unclear, the running back will have two more practices to improve his status before taking on the Rams this Sunday. When healthy, Homer will likely continue to split playing time with DeeJay Dallas behind No. 1 running back Kenneth Walker.

Scores in overtime loss Homer rushed twice for eight yards and caught two of three targets for 45 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 40-34 overtime loss to the Raiders.

Impact Late in the fourth quarter, Homer scored on an 18-yard screen pass in which he broke multiple tackles en route to the end zone. He was quite effective with his opportunities, but the fourth-year pro handled just 13 offensive snaps while rookie Kenneth Walker played 46 snaps. Kenneth Walker recorded 39 yards and a touchdown on 15 touches. Homer is a flaky fantasy option, as he has totaled just 12 touches over the last five games.

No touches in loss Homer didn't record a carry or a target in Sunday's 21-16 loss to the Buccaneers.

Impact Homer recorded at least one touch in all five games that he suited up for prior to Week 10. However, the Seahawks mostly abandoned the run after falling behind to the Buccaneers early, and rookie Kenneth Walker proved to be an effective pass-catcher with six receptions for 55 yards in this contest. Going forward, Homer is simply an insurance option.

Snares three passes Homer rushed once for seven yards and caught all three targets for 25 yards in Sunday's 31-21 win over the Cardinals.

Impact Once again, Homer operated as the clear No. 2 back behind rookie Kenneth Walker. Homer logged 20 offensive snaps while DeeJay Dallas was held to just two. A 2019 sixth-round pick, Homer continues to be efficient as a pass-catcher, as he has caught all eight of his targets for 79 yards this year.

NOVEMBER 7, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Registers 31 total yards Homer rushed twice for 10 yards and caught his lone target for 21 yards in Sunday's 27-13 win over the Giants.

Impact Homer returned from injured reserve in Week 8 and immediately claimed the No. 2 role behind rookie Kenneth Walker, as Homer logged 14 offensive snaps (22 percent) while DeeJay Dallas handled five snaps. Walker will be the clearcut lead back as long as he's healthy. Homer is worth a roster spot in deeper leagues as a potential starter if Walker gets hurt.

Set for action Sunday Homer (ribs) was activated off injured reserve Saturday.

Impact Head coach Pete Carroll outright confirmed Homer would be active for Week 8, so this comes as no surprise. It's possible the Seahawks could utilize the fourth-year back more in the passing game with DK Metcalf (knee) and Tyler Lockett (hamstring) both listed as game-time calls in a pivotal battle against the Giants.

Set to be activated Week 8 Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said Friday that Homer (ribs) will be activated from injured reserve ahead of Sunday's game against the Giants, Curtis Crabtree of Fox 13 Seattle r...

Impact Seattle will likely wait until shortly before Saturday's 4 p.m. ET deadline for Week 8 roster moves before formally activating him, but Homer apparently checked out fine following his return to practice Wednesday. Prior to missing each of the Seahawks' last four games while on IR, Homer had served mainly as a pass-catching specialist out of the backfield in addition to having a role on special teams. Homer could immediately supplant DeeJay Dallas on passing downs Week 8, but he's unlikely to see a high volume of touches while top back Kenneth Walker is healthy and available.

Returning to practice Wednesday The Seahawks designated Homer (ribs) for return from injured reserve Wednesday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.

Impact As coach Pete Carroll predicted last Wednesday, Homer is getting back on the practice field this week after missing the minimum four games on IR due to sore ribs. It's unclear if he'll do enough to be cleared to play Sunday against the Giants, but the Seahawks now have a 21-day window in which to evaluate whether or not a return to the active roster is possible for him. If that comes to pass, Homer likely will vie with DeeJay Dallas for complementary touches in Seattle's backfield behind lead runner Kenneth Walker with Rashaad Penny (ankle) out for the season.

OCTOBER 26, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Could practice next week Coach Pete Carroll said Wednesday that Homer (ribs) might be able to practice in about a week, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.

Impact Seattle placed Homer on its injured reserve list ahead of Week 4, and he's required to sit out of Sunday's game at the Chargers as a result, but that could be all the rest of the time he'll need to miss with his rib injury. When he returns, he'll likely play in a change-of-pace role behind Kenneth Walker and DeeJay Dallas.

Should return quickly from IR Seahawks coach Pete Carroll said that Homer (ribs) should return quickly after he becomes eligible to return from IR following Week 7, John Boyle of the team's official site report...

Impact Homer was placed on IR following Week 3, so his earliest chance to return will come during the leadup to Seattle's game against the Giants on Oct. 30. The 24-year-old rushed four times for 18 yards and caught four passes for 33 yards while playing 40 offensive snaps over the first three games of the season. Homer could stand to see increased playing time once he returns, however, as running back Rashaad Penny is set to sit out four months with a broken left fibula.

Impact Homer is ineligible to play in the next four games, with his next possible appearance being Oct. 30 against the Giants in Week 8. His role on passing downs could go to DeeJay Dallas, Rashaad Penny or some combination of the two; both picked up some of Homer's typical snaps in a Week 3 loss to Atlanta.
