The Seattle Seahawks are struggling with turnovers, having given the ball away 10 times in six games, which is tied for the third-worst differential in the NFL. Quarterback Geno Smith and wide receiver DK Metcalf have both taken accountability for recent interceptions, highlighting a need for better ball security and execution. Coach Mike Macdonald emphasized the importance of improving their turnover situation as they prepare for a matchup against the Atlanta Falcons.

The San Francisco 49ers secured a crucial 36-24 victory over the Seattle Seahawks, regaining the lead in the NFC West. Despite facing injuries and special teams issues, the 49ers showcased resilience, with quarterback Brock Purdy delivering a strong performance. The Seahawks, now on a three-game losing streak, struggled to maintain their early-season momentum, plagued by turnovers and a faltering run game.

In a thrilling comeback attempt, Laviska Shenault Jr. of the Seattle Seahawks electrified the crowd with a 97-yard kickoff return for a touchdown against the San Francisco 49ers. This play not only cut the 49ers' lead to 23-10 but also marked a significant moment for the Seahawks, as it was their first kickoff return for a touchdown since 2021. Shenault's earlier fumble had put the Seahawks in a tough spot, but his remarkable return reinvigorated the team and the fans. Following this, Geno Smith orchestrated a 94-yard drive, culminating in a touchdown run by Kenneth Walker III, bringing the score to 23-17.

As the Seahawks head into a challenging schedule, they remain unbeaten at 3-0, largely due to Macdonald's defensive strategies and player commitment to the new system.

Miles Sanders, running back for the Carolina Panthers, will be out for Sunday's game against the Dolphins due to a shoulder injury. Sanders had been dealing with a groin injury and picked up the shoulder injury last week. With Sanders out, Chuba Hubbard will step in as the lead back for the Panthers. Sanders and Hubbard have been averaging a combined 19.2 carries and 7.6 targets per game this season. While Hubbard won't take on all of Sanders' workload, he is expected to receive enough work to be a solid RB2 option in fantasy lineups.

Carolina Panthers running back Miles Sanders will not play against the Miami Dolphins due to a shoulder injury. In addition to Sanders, the Panthers will also be without both starting safeties Vonn Bell and Xavier Woods, starting cornerback Jaycee Horn, left guard Chandler Zavala, and tight end Gio Ricci. Chuba Hubbard and Laviska Shenault Jr. will handle the running game in Sanders' absence.

Miles Sanders lost a fumble and took a backseat to teammate Chuba Hubbard in Week 5's loss vs. the Lions. Sanders still has a groin injury and only logged 7 carries for 32 yards, while Hubbard had 9 attempts for 35 yards. Both RBs struggled against the Lions' run defense. However, they could be viable options in a better matchup against the Dolphins in Week 6.

Adam Thielen, wide receiver for the Carolina Panthers, is listed as questionable for Sunday's game in Atlanta due to an ankle injury.

Panthers wide receiver Laviska Shenault has been cleared from the concussion protocol and is expected to be ready for Week 1. However, despite the possibility of being used out of the backfield by new head coach Frank Reich, Shenault is not projected to be a significant fantasy option.
