Travis Homer Fantasy

Seattle Seahawks running back Travis Homer (ribs) was placed on injured reserve. The fourth-year back suffered the rib injury last week in Seattle's 27-23 loss to the Atlanta Falcons. He hasn't played much of a role in the backfield, scoring only 7.1 half-point PPR fantasy points this season. However, the loss of Homer opens up more snaps and opportunities for Rashaad Penny and Kenneth Walker III. Over the first two weeks of the year, Homer played 39.4% of the snaps. With him out for at least the next four games, Penny and Walker should earn most of those snaps.

Seattle Seahawks running back Travis Homer (ribs) sustained an injury early in the team's Week 3 loss to the Atlanta Falcons and did not return. Head coach Pete Carroll stated after the game that Homer has bruised ribs. The fourth-year pro only handled four carries so far this season, but has been utilized for pass protection and did get involved as a receiving option in Week 2. In Homer's absence, DeeJay Dallas saw three carries and two targets and should see the field on passing downs going forward if Homer misses time.

Seattle Seahawks running back Travis Homer (ribs) is questionable to return to Sunday's meeting against the Atlanta Falcons. Homer only had one carry for seven yards before going down, with Rashaad Penny currently outpacing the backfield. If he doesn't make it back in Week 3, Kenneth Walker III, who has only one carry for negative yardage, may be even more involved.
