Seahawks 2025 Fantasy Football Outlook

Elijah Arroyo, TE

The presence of Arroyo adds serious credence to the idea that Noah Fant's days might be numbered in Seattle. The ex-Bronco veteran is on the last year of his deal, and the Seahawks could save $8.9 million vs. the cap while "only" eating $4.5 million in dead money if they desire.

Even then, AJ Barner figures to maintain at least a part-time role inside a passing game that should continue to heavily flow through Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Cooper Kupp. Solid enough long-term spot for Arroyo, but don't expect a big enough role to make much of an impact in 2025 fantasy leagues.

Jalen Milroe, QB

The Seahawks now boast a QB room featuring Sam Darnold, Drew Lock, and Milroe. ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED?

While Milroe shouldn't be viewed as legit competition for Darnold, the former Viking also is hardly guaranteed to be Seattle's long-term solution under center, considering his career has been filled with far more downs than ups.

It would have been a lot cooler if Milroe landed somewhere with a legit chance to start in 2025, although QB-needy dynasty squads should still take a long look at throwing a mid-round pick on the Alabama product due to the sky-high potential he brings with his electric dual-threat ability.
