2024 RTSports Outlook

Shenault missed some time with an ankle injury last year but was playing sporadically even when on the field. He had just 10 receptions for 60 yards. Shenault actually had more rush attempts than receptions, running 12 times for 55 yards. Last season was the first of his career with fewer than 20 receptions. Shenault should play a similar reserve this season with the Seahawks, getting some catches and rush attempts throughout the season. Shenault can be an explosive player that makes plays with the ball in his hands. He does well to turn a short catch into a big play. He has very good size and strength for the position, making him a tough cover, especially out of the slot. He will drop some passes, though, and isn't the most polished route runner.

FANTASY OUTLOOK: Shenault does not have a very high ceiling in his current situation. He might get some catches and rush attempts, but his lack of scores and big yardage games are a concern.. He can get around 20 receptions and 400 total yards with a touchdown or two.

Player Notes

Dynasty | The Seahawks have signed wide receiver Laviska Shenault. Dynasty Analysis: Amazingly, Shenault's career has turned into that resembling nothing more than a kick returner at this point. It looks like he'll serve in that capacity for the Seahawks after failing to develop as a wide receiver in Jacksonville or Carolina. More name than game at this point, Shenault should not be on dynasty waiver wires moving forward unless Seattle gets buried with injuries.

Free-agent wide receiver Laviska Shenault Jr. is signing with the Seattle Seahawks, according to ESPN reporter Brady Henderson. Shenault was originally a second-round pick in 2020 by the Jacksonville Jaguars out of Colorado, but he has not found his footing over the first four seasons of his career. The 25-year-old posted at least 600 receiving yards in each of his two seasons with the Jagaurs but totaled just 332 yards in 21 games during his two-year stint with the Carolina Panthers. With DK Metcalf, Tyler Lockett, and Jaxon Smith-Njigba on the roster, it'd be a big surprise if he's a fantasy-relevant player in 2024. Assuming he makes the 53-man roster, he'll likely be utilized as a depth player and a special teamer.

The Carolina Panthers placed wide receiver Laviska Shenault Jr. (ankle) on Injured Reserve on Thursday, which means he'll have to miss at least the next four games. With just six games remaining in the regular season, there's a good chance Shenault has played his last game in 2023. The 25-year-old suffered a high-ankle sprain in Week 6 but only missed three games with a bye mixed in. However, Shenault suffered a new ankle injury in the Week 12 loss to the Tennessee Titans and will now miss at least the next four games. He hasn't been on the fantasy radar this year with only 10 receptions for 60 yards while adding 12 carries for 55 yards. With Shenault out, Terrace Marshall Jr. has the clearest path to WR4 duties in Carolina behind Adam Thielen, DJ Chark Jr. and rookie Jonathan Mingo.
