Career-low receiving yards
Latest Headline: Published 2023-01-16
Fant posted 50 catches (63 targets) for 486 yards and four touchdowns through 17 games during the 2022 season.
While Fant tied his career high of four touchdowns, this was his worst season in terms of receiving yards. The fourth-year tight end split snaps with Will Dissly for the first 15 games, but when Dissly went down with a knee injury, Fant didn't take over the No. 1 job. Instead, Colby Parkinson leapfrogged Fant and operated as the clear top tight end. That setup is concerning for Fant heading into 2023, as both Dissly and Parkinson are under contract for at least one more year.

Set to play Saturday
Latest Headline: Published 2023-01-12
Fant (knee) doesn't have a designation for Saturday's wild-card contest at San Francisco, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Fant's practice limitations stem back to Week 16 prep as he tends to a knee injury, which didn't allow him to participate in Tuesday's walkthrough. But he managed limited sessions Wednesday and Thursday and now is ready to go for the first round of the postseason. While playing through his current health concern, Fant has recorded a cumulative 8-72-1 line on 10 targets over the last three games while operating behind fellow tight end Colby Parkinson.
Returns to limited practice
Latest Headline: Published 2023-01-11
Fant (knee) practiced in a limited capacity Wednesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Fant has had practice limitations since Week 16 prep due to a knee issue, which kept him out of Tuesday's walk-through session entirely. His return to drills one day later bodes well for his chances of suiting up in Saturday's wild-card contest at San Francisco. Thursday's injury report may clear up Fant's status, and if it does, he'll be destined to team with Colby Parkinson as one of the Seahawks' top two tight ends this weekend.
Sits out practice
Latest Headline: Published 2023-01-10
Fant (knee) was listed as a non-participant at Tuesday's walk-through practice, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Due to a lingering knee injury, Fant has sat out the first practice of the week ahead of each of the Seahawks' last three games, but he's proceeded to suit up for each contest while producing a collective 8-72-1 receiving line on 10 targets. Assuming he didn't suffer any sort of major setback during Sunday's 19-16 overtime win over the Rams, he should be good to go for this Saturday's wild-card game in San Francisco. If that's the case, Fant would once again be in line to split snaps at tight end with Colby Parkinson.
Catches four short passes
Latest Headline: Published 2023-01-09
Fant caught all four of his targets for 20 yards in Sunday's 19-16 overtime win versus the Rams.
Fant operated as the No. 2 tight end behind Colby Parkinson for a second straight week. He still managed to play 45 offensive snaps (64 percent) and ranked third on the team in targets, but Fant didn't gain more than eight yards on any of his catches. He has the ability to stretch the field with his speed. However, Fant's current usage is concerning for fantasy purposes as the Seahawks head to the playoffs.
Good to go
Latest Headline: Published 2023-01-06
Fant (knee) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Rams, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Fant was a limited practice participant Thursday and Friday after resting up Wednesday. He's been playing through the knee injury for a few weeks, but it might explain why Colby Parkinson benefited more after Will Dissly went on injured reserve with his own knee injury last week. In the 23-6 win over the Jets, Fant handled his typical snap share (62 percent) but saw only three targets.
Logs limited practice Thursday
Latest Headline: Published 2023-01-05
Fant (knee) was limited in practice Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Fant may be following the same practice regimen as last week, when he was a DNP on Wednesday before capping it with back-to-back limited sessions. In that scenario, he didn't carry a designation into this past Sunday's game against the Jets, when he hauled in two of three targets for 40 yards. Ultimately, Friday's injury report will reveal if Fant is cleared ahead of Sunday's contest versus the Rams.
Sits out practice Wednesday
Latest Headline: Published 2023-01-04
Fant (knee) was a non-participant at Wednesday's practice, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
For a third week in a row, Fant is operating under practice limitations due to a knee injury. He still suited up for both of the last two games, earning a typical snap share (55 percent Week 16, 63 percent Week 17) on his way to a combined four catches (on six targets) for 52 yards and a touchdown. Fant entered last weekend without a designation for Sunday's game against the Jets, and he could do so again this weekend against the Rams if gets in some practice reps Thursday and/or Friday.
Targeted three times in win
Latest Headline: Published 2023-01-02
Fant caught two of three targets for 40 yards in Sunday's 23-6 win over the Jets.
Will Dissly (knee) is on injured reserve, so Fant handled 45 snaps -- his highest mark since Week 8. However, he was surpassed by Colby Parkinson, who logged a season-high 57 snaps (80 percent) and posted five catches for 36 yards and a touchdown. This was a surprising shift, as Fant and Dissly had been running ahead of Parkinson all year. Dynasty managers should keep an eye on Fant's role in the must-win matchup versus the Rams in Week 18.
Cleared for Sunday
Latest Headline: Published 2022-12-30
Fant (knee) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Jets, Curtis Crabtree of Fox 13 Seattle reports.
With fellow tight end Will Dissly (knee) placed on injured reserve this week and WRs Tyler Lockett (hand) and Marquise Goodwin (wrist) both listed as questionable, Fant could be the second or third option for QB Geno Smith this Sunday. The 2019 first-round pick scored touchdowns three of the past four games, but he's reached 50 yards just once all year while sharing snaps/routes with Dissly and Colby Parkinson.
Returns as limited Thursday
Latest Headline: Published 2022-12-29
Fant (knee) was limited in practice Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
The Seahawks appear to have rested a number of key skill-position players this week, with all of Fant, Tyler Lockett (hand) and Kenneth Walker (ankle) going from DNPs on Wednesday to some activity one day later. Fant himself sat out two sessions last week with his knee issue before getting in one limited practice to cap it, so he seems to be a step ahead this time around. Friday's injury report will reveal whether or not the tight end enters the weekend with a designation for Sunday's matchup with the Jets.
