The Seattle Seahawks are set to face the Washington Commanders in Week 3, with an encouraging offensive lineup thanks to the return of quarterback Sam Darnold. Darnold, who missed the previous game due to a glute injury, has been fully cleared and is expected to start. However, the Seahawks will be without starting safeties Julian Love and Ty Okada, both of whom are out with calf and hamstring injuries, respectively.
Nose tackle Brandon Pili's status is still unclear, as he is listed as questionable. Rookie running back Jadarian Price is also cleared for action, providing an opportunity for higher-upside production. Meanwhile, the Commanders will be without their starting offensive tackle Sam Cosmi, who is dealing with a leg injury. Seattle's defense will be without both starting safeties, with AJ Finley and Rodney Thomas II set to start in their place.
Despite the defensive absences, the Seahawks' defense remains a solid Week 3 fantasy option. Managers should start Jaxon Smith-Njigba at wide receiver, view Sam Darnold as a QB2, use Cooper Kupp as a low-end flex, and approach Jadarian Price cautiously as a risky flex.
