Seahawks' Eric Saubert: No targets in win
Saubert wasn't targeted in Sunday's 31-27 win over the Rams in the NFC Championship Game.
Saubert served as the No. 2 tight end behind AJ Barner, handling 38 of 67 offensive snaps (57 percent). His workload could get reduced if Elijah Arroyo is active for the Super Bowl versus the Patriots, but regardless, he's not a dependable fantasy option with just 41 receiving yards through the regular season and postseason.

Seahawks' Eric Saubert: Handles increased workload
Saubert caught two of three targets for 10 yards in Saturday's 13-3 win over the 49ers.
Saubert logged a season-high 72 percent snap share, pacing ahead of AJ Barner, who handled a 60 percent share. This likely won't continue in the playoffs, as Saubert has recorded just four receptions for 31 yards through 11 games this season.

Seahawks' Eric Saubert: Blanked in win
Saubert didn't catch either of his two targets in Sunday's 27-10 win over the Panthers.
Saubert handled 52 percent of the offensive snaps, a season high for the veteran tight end, but he mostly stuck to a blocking role. The 2017 fifth-round pick has been targeted just four times over 10 games.

Seahawks' Eric Saubert: Game-winning catch
Saubert wasn't credited with a target in the box score in Thursday's 38-37 overtime win versus the Rams. He caught a two-point conversion in overtime.
Saubert's first look was on the last play of the game, when he caught the two-point conversion to seal a crucial win over the Seahawks' division rival. This was a memorable moment, but it has been a slow season for the veteran tight end, as he has been targeted just twice over nine games.

Seahawks' Eric Saubert: One target in win
Saubert caught his lone target for nine yards in Sunday's 18-16 win over the Colts.
Saubert handled a 36 percent snap share even though rookie TE Elijah Arroyo (knee) is on injured reserve. With just two catches through eight games, it's clear that Saubert is considered a blocking tight end in the Seahawks' system.

Seahawks' Eric Saubert: Cleared to play Week 15
Saubert (calf) is active for Sunday's game against the Colts.
Saubert was activated from injured reserve Saturday, and the veteran tight end has been cleared to return Sunday from a six-game absence due to a calf injury. With Elijah Arroyo (knee) on injured reserve, Saubert and Nick Kallerup will serve as the backup tight ends behind AJ Barner for Sunday's game.

Seahawks' Eric Saubert: Inks new deal
The Seahawks signed Saubert (calf) to a one-year contract extension Saturday, NFL reporter Jordan Schultz reports.
Saubert joined Seattle on a one-year contract in March after spending the previous campaign with the division-rival 49ers. The veteran tight end has never figured into a significant role as a pass catcher during his 10-year career, and he's now on his ninth team in Seattle. He's been well regarded for his value as a blocker, and that's been the basis of his role with the Seahawks, as he's tallyed just one catch over seven appearances this season. Saubert has been dealing with a calf injury that's kept him on IR over the last six games, and he was designated to return to practice Wednesday.

Seahawks' Eric Saubert: Potential Week 15 return
Saubert (calf) was activated from injured reserve Saturday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Saubert has been sidelined since Week 9 and has been practicing all week. It remains to be seen if he'll be active for a Week 15 matchup against the Colts, as he will officially head into Sunday questionable. Saubert will primarily serve as a blocker and on special teams, if active.

Seahawks' Eric Saubert: Questionable for Sunday
Saubert (calf) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Colts, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.
Saubert was placed on injured reserve after suffering a calf injury in the Seahawks' Week 7 win over the Texans. The tight end has been working his way back and was able to log enough practice sessions in some capacity to be considered questionable for Sunday's matchup. If Saubert can suit up, he will likely slot in as the No. 2 tight end behind 2024 fourth-round pick AJ Barner.

Seahawks' Eric Saubert: Practice window opens
The Seahawks announced Wednesday that Saubert (calf) has been designated for return from IR, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
Saubert has missed Seattle's last six games due to a lingering calf injury, but he's now ready to resume practicing and will have a 21-day window wherein he can ramp up his activity level without counting against the active roster. The Seahawks can activate him from IR at any point in that span, his health permitting. Once ready to return, Saubert will stand to contribute as a depth option at tight end.
