Tyler Lockett Sees Team-High Nine Targets

Tyler Lockett Sees Team-High Nine Targets

11 months ago

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett led the team with nine targets in Monday's 20-17 win over the Philadelphia Eagles. His 28% target share on the night resulted in just three catches for 21 yards, however. It was a disappointing turnout considering that coming into Week 15 the Eagles were allowing the most fantasy points per game to wide receivers and were missing their top cornerback Darius Slay (knee). Lockett started out 2-for-2 in the first quarter but was not targeted again until late in the third when he had his defender beat but was badly overthrown. The 31-year-old drew four targets during the Seahawks' game-winning two-minute drill but came up empty-handed on each attempt directed his way. Lockett has a potential rebound game in Week 16 when the Seahawks face the Tennessee Titans, especially if quarterback Geno Smith (groin) is cleared to return to his starting role.
