Is Seahawks RB George Holani a fantasy football sleeper in Week 2?

George Holani may put together a performance in Week 2 that services fantasy football team managers well.

Seattle Seahawks running back George Holani is reportedly emerging as a fantasy football sleeper for Week 2, according to Bleacher Report's Moe Moton. Holani did not see much action on passing downs in Week 1, but this could change with backup quarterback Drew Lock set to start for injured Sam Darnold. Holani is expected to get a decent number of carries (eight to 10) and targets in the short passing game as Lock gets into a rhythm.

He recorded 29 rushing yards on eight carries in Seattle's Week 1 win over the New England Patriots. With meaningful carries despite being behind rookie Jadarian Price, Holani could potentially score a touchdown and rack up solid yardage, making him a player worth adding off the waiver wire this week.
