Seahawks WR Tyler Lockett posted a modest 4-75 receiving line in Sunday's loss to the Giants. But that was enough to lead the team in receiving yards and tie for second in receptions, behind RB Kenneth Walker III. Lockett's 6 targets trailed Walker (8) and WRs D.K. Metcalf and Jaxon Smith-Njigba (7 apiece). Metcalf posted a 4-55 receiving line. Smith-Njigba went 4-31-1.
Lockett ran third among Seahawks WRs in pass routes, as usual, but just narrowly trailed JSN (44-42, according to Pro Football Focus).
The game marked just the second time through five weeks that Lockett has fallen short of 5 receptions, though. Seattle's league-leading passing volume has helped keep all three WRs relevant in PPR.
Next comes a challenging matchup with the 49ers, who entered Sunday as the No. 5 pass defense by DVOA. Despite losing to the Cardinals, they limited Kyler Murray to 195 passing yards at 6.5 per attempt.
