Earns four-year extension Lockett and the Seahawks agreed Wednesday on a four-year, $69.2 million extension, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Impact Lockett's new deal includes $37 million guaranteed, giving the reliable sixth-year wideout a well-deserved pay raise. With 3,076 receiving yards and 28 receiving touchdowns over the last three seasons, Lockett has clearly established himself as one of the league's premier deep-ball threats. His yards per reception fell off a bit in 2020, down to 10.5 from 12.9 in 2019, but he made up for the slight decline in efficiency with a career-high 100 catches. Even if Lockett ends up taking more of a back seat to rising superstar DK Metcalf in the future, his chemistry with Russell Wilson and ability to get open downfield and on short and intermediate routes should position him well for continued strong fantasy production.

Catches two passes in loss Lockett caught two of four targets for 43 yards in Saturday's 30-20 wild-card loss to the Rams.
Impact It was a quiet game overall for Seattle's passing game, as Russell Wilson completed just 41 percent of his passes for 174 yards, two touchdowns and an interception. Lockett caught a pair of long passes, with his two receptions going for 24 and 19 yards. The sixth-year wideout nevertheless put together a remarkable 2020 season, posting a 100-1,054-10 line through 16 regular-season games. Lockett's efficiency has taken a steep dropoff since his 16.9 yards per reception mark in 2018, but he made up for it with a career-high 132 targets this year. He'll have an opportunity for similar success next year with Wilson and DK Metcalf both returning.

Tyler Lockett & DK Metcalf Make History In Seahawks’ Week 17 Win Over 49ers Seahawks receivers DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett both broke franchise records in Sunday’s win over the 49ers.

Goes off for two scores Lockett hauled in 12 receptions (14 targets) for 90 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 26-23 win over the 49ers.
Impact Lockett capped off the regular season with a bang, abusing a battered 49ers secondary that focused its remaining resources on containing DK Metcalf (three catches for 21 yards). The 28-year-old had taken a backseat to the budding superstar across from him in formations down the stretch, averaging just 46.9 yards per game with one total touchdown over his previous nine contests. Despite his monster performance in the season finale, we may see more of the second-half version of Lockett as opposed to the big production we saw early in the season prior to Metcalf's coming-out party. That being said, the veteran of Seattle's receiving corps will finish with strong numbers, catching a team-record 100 receptions for 1,054 yards and 10 touchdowns over 16 games. Lockett could put up a repeat performance in next week's NFC wild-card round, as Metcalf is likely to draw the Rams' top defensive back, Jalen Ramsey, in Sunday's playoff matchup between division rivals.
