The Seattle Seahawks will visit the Los Angeles Rams in Week 11. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, specifically regarding QB Sam Darnold.
Is Sam Darnold Playing in Week 11?
Darnold is not on the injury report, and barring a surprise, he is expected to play.
We’ll continue to monitor the Seahawks’ injury report leading up to kickoff for any changes. You can also visit and bookmark our Fantasy News Tracker for the latest updates.
Should You Start or Sit Darnold in Week 11?
Darnold continues to impress, and this team has a Rashid Shaheed card to play when they are comfortable.
Could they unleash the deep threat in this huge game?
I was impressed with Darnold scrambling to extend an early play last week, keeping his eyes downfield and allowing Cooper Kupp to position himself in the perfect spot for what turned into a 67-yard gain.
You could run away because of the three turnovers last week, but I’m not too worried on that front. The Rams allowed Mac Jones to eclipse 22 fantasy points for a second time last week, and I like the chances of Darnold posting top 15 numbers this week.
In Week 11, Dak Prescott (at Raiders) and Matthew Stafford are the only two true pocket passers that I have ranked ahead of Seattle’s leading man.
