Tory Horton Fantasy Stats

Seattle Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald said that wide receiver Tory Horton (shin, groin) probably won't be at full strength for the start of the offseason program this spring, but he is expected to be ready for training camp in late July, per John Boyle of Seahawks.com. Horton, a fifth-rounder last year out of Colorado State, got off to a great start in his first year in the NFL, catching 13 passes for 161 yards and five touchdowns in eight games while also averaging 14.9 yards per punt return, including a 95-yard touchdown. But the 23-year-old pass-catcher only ended up playing in eight games for Seattle. Horton should be healthy for the start of his sophomore season in the NFL, and he should have a bigger role on offense in Year 2, but he will still open the 2026 season as at least the WR4 behind Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Rashid Shaheed, and veteran Cooper Kupp. Horton is primarily a big-play wideout to stash in dynasty/keeper leagues.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tory Horton (shin, groin) continues to face plenty of competition for targets, forcing dynasty managers to exercise additional patience. Horton was an exciting name to watch last year, largely due to his fifth-round price tag and the Seahawks' willingness to trade away DK Metcalf. He certainly flashed some intriguing production, including four touchdowns over the first five games of his rookie season. However, even in the post-Metcalf era of Seahawks football, Horton faces stiff competition for targets. Jaxon Smith-Njigba is one of the best players in the entire NFL, and Rashid Shaheed figures to have a sizable role after signing an extension. Cooper Kupp is also under contract, leaving Horton in line for the No. 4 receiver role -- and that's only if he's healthy. Horton had surgery and won't be ready for the start of offseason programs. It seems like there's a decent chance he's ready for Week 1, but even so, his somewhat discouraging role on the depth chart makes him tough to trust in fantasy football. He's worth holding in dynasty leagues and will likely require significant patience from his fantasy managers.

Seattle Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald said that wide receiver/kick returner Tory Horton (shin, groin), who missed the entire second half of his rookie campaign last year, will not "do anything in the spring," according to Brady Henderson of ESPN. The 23-year-old fifth-rounder out of Colorado State was starting to see a bit more usage in the offense at the time of his injury, and he scored five times in eight games, but he caught just 13 passes on 22 targets for 161 yards as a wideout. Horton underwent surgery for his lower-body injuries, but he should have enough time to recover to be ready for Week 1 of the 2026 regular season this fall. In addition to his five TDs as a receiver, Horton returned a punt for a touchdown on special teams. He appears to have a nose for the end zone, but going into Year 2, Horton probably won't be on the fantasy radar for managers in standard 12-team leagues.

Before a shin injury cut his rookie season short, Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tory Horton made five touchdown grabs over his final seven games of 2025 while complementing Offensive Player of the Year Jaxon Smith-Njigba's route-running precision with explosive downfield speed. Perhaps not coincidentally, once Horton was lost for the year, the second half of Smith-Njigba's season, while still dominant, fell off the record-setting pace with which he opened 2025. Seattle made a mid-season trade for speedster Rashid Shaheed, but he wasn't able to recreate Horton's success. With Shaheed headed toward unrestricted free agency, and Cooper Kupp turning 33 before the start of the 2026 season, Horton could be given every opportunity to earn a spot in two-wide sets and is likely to see his value steadily increase as the season nears.

Seattle Seahawks rookie wide receiver Tory Horton (shin) is not expected to return for the rest of the season, according to head coach Mike Macdonald. Horton was placed on Injured Reserve on Nov. 22 with a shin injury. "It just needs time and rest. It's unfortunate, but these things happen. We're with him, he's doing a great job. We're just not going to have him right now," Macdonald said. In his last game played in the Week 9 win over the Washington Commanders, the 23-year-old fifth-rounder had his best game of the year, catching all four of his targets for 48 yards and two touchdowns with Cooper Kupp out due to injury. Rashid Shaheed has replaced Horton as an electric kick returner on special teams and as a deep threat down the field on offense after being acquired in a midseason trade with the New Orleans Saints. Horton should be fully recovered for offseason workouts.

The Seattle Seahawks don't have an answer on whether rookie wide receiver Tory Horton (shin) will be able to make it back this year, according to Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic. "We'll see about Tory. He's taking it as he improves right now. He's got some hurdles he's got to get over. We'll wait to see him get over those hurdles, but if he gets over them, we can get him back," head coach Mike Macdonald said. The 23-year-old is eligible to return for the team's Week 16 contest against the division-rival Los Angeles Rams on Thursday night, but that's unlikely to happen, and Horton could end up missing the rest of the regular season. If he cannot play in the next three weeks, it's unclear if he'd be ready to return for the postseason. The fifth-round selection out of Colorado State wasn't involved all that much in his first eight NFL games, but he did score five touchdowns on 13 receptions. Horton is unlikely to be on the fantasy radar in the next couple of weeks.

Seattle Seahawks rookie wide receiver Tory Horton (shin) is eligible to come off Injured Reserve for the team's crucial Week 16 divisional game against the Los Angeles Rams next Thursday night, but head coach Mike Macdonald made it sound like Horton could need more time. "It's still a process right now. We got some tests going on, not as we speak, but in the last day or two, and that'll be indicative of how fast we can accelerate everything," Macdonald said. The 23-year-old fifth-rounder out of Colorado State caught all four of his targets for 28 yards and two touchdowns in his last game on Nov. 2 against the Washington Commanders, which might end up being the last game that Horton plays in the regular season in his first NFL season. Any chances of Horton being a fantasy asset to close out the year also likely went out the window when Seattle acquired deep threat Rashid Shaheed from the Saints at the trade deadline.

The Seattle Seahawks have placed wide receiver Tory Horton (shin) on injured reserve before Sunday's Week 12 matchup against the Tennessee Titans. Horton will now be sidelined for a minimum of four games with a shin injury. The 22-year-old rookie has been held out of the previous two games due to this shin injury before landing on injured reserve. The former Colorado State standout has shown flashes in the first half of his rookie season. We last saw Horton reeling in four catches for 48 yards with two touchdowns in Week 9 against the Washington Commanders. The earliest Horton could return this season is Week 16 against the Los Angeles Rams. Fantasy managers with an IR spot can hang onto him in deep leagues.

Seattle Seahawks rookie wide receiver Tory Horton (shin) missed the entire week of practice and has been ruled out for the Week 12 game this Sunday against the Tennessee Titans, according to Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic. Horton will miss his third straight game. The Seahawks have suggested that the 22-year-old wideout could be a candidate for Injured Reserve, which would require him to miss at least four games. If Horton lands on IR, there's a chance he won't be back with the Seahawks before the end of the regular season. He was injured at a bad time after catching all four of his targets for 48 yards and two touchdowns in the win over the Washington Commanders on Nov. 2. Horton hasn't played since. Although he has scored five times in his first eight NFL games, Horton will most likely be the WR4 in Seattle whenever he returns behind Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Rashid Shaheed, and Cooper Kupp.

Seattle Seahawks rookie wide receiver Tory Horton (groin, shin) has yet to practice this week, according to Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic. Horton last played in a Week 9 win over the Washington Commanders, when he had four catches on four targets for a season-high 48 yards and two touchdowns. Since the 22-year-old was injured, veteran Cooper Kupp returned from an injury of his own, and the team acquired receiver Rashid Shaheed from the New Orleans Saints. The fifth-round pick will need to practice in some capacity on Friday to have a shot at playing on Sunday on the road against the Tennessee Titans. Horton has caught five touchdown passes on 13 receptions in his first year in the NFL, but it's going to be more difficult for him to stand out on offense in Seattle whenever he returns from his injuries.
