Barner brought in two of five targets for 23 yards in the Seahawks' 34-17 loss to the Bears on Monday night.

Barner was third in receiving yards and targets, although the tight end still finished below 30 receiving yards for the sixth time this season. Barner remained in a minor role despite the fact the Seahawks were down Rashid Shaheed (knee), and with 21 receptions for 203 yards and zero touchdowns, the third-year pro remains behind the pace of his career-best 52-519-6 line from last season. Barner will look to capitalize on a favorable matchup against the Cardinals defense in a Week 9 home matchup on Sunday.

Darnold completed 17 of 34 passes for 188 yards with two touchdowns and one interception while adding two rushes for 20 yards in the Seahawks' 34-17 loss to the Bears on Monday night.

Darnold averaged just 5.5 yards per attempt and took three sacks from a Bears defense that made an impact addition in Jeffery Simmons on Thursday via trade with the Titans. Darnold's 50.0 percent completion rate was a season low for him in non-injury-shortened games, and the veteran signal-caller also threw an interception for the sixth consecutive contest. Darnold did toss multiple touchdowns for the first time since Week 4, connecting with Jaxon Smith-Njigba (43 yards) and Cooper Kupp (seven yards) for his pair of scoring strikes. Darnold will take an unsightly 10:9 TD:INT heading into a Week 9 home matchup against the Cardinals on Sunday.

Charbonnet (knee) rushed six times for 23 yards and brought in three of four targets for six yards in the Seahawks' 34-17 loss to the Bears on Monday night.

Charbonnet took the first carry of the night for Seattle, gaining an encouraging five yards on his first tote since tearing his ACL in a divisional-round win over the 49ers in January. Charbonnet also subsequently rattled off a 13-yard gain in the third quarter, but he was limited on his other touches and ultimately had four fewer rush attempts than Jadarian Price. Charbonnet's snap share and touches should gradually increase, and a Week 9 home matchup against the Cardinals could serve as a good platform for his workload to see a nice bump.

Kupp caught one of three targets for a seven-yard touchdown Monday in a loss to the Bears.

Kupp had another low target share, but he at least made the most of his only catch by hauling in a seven-yard TD early in the fourth quarter. That score probably isn't going to be enough to inspire confidence in him in fantasy, though, given that the veteran wideout has drawn three or fewer targets in six of his eight games this season. Kupp's seven receiving yards Monday also were a season-low mark, and there simply doesn't seem to be much room for any wideout aside from Jaxon Smith-Njigba to regularly find success in Seattle's offense given Smith-Njigba's massive target share. With that said, Kupp at least will have a favorable matchup in Week 9, as he'll face an Arizona defense that has surrendered 11 receiving TDs to wideouts this season, tied for the most in the NFL.

Myers missed his lone field-goal attempt and made one of two PATs in Monday night's 34-17 loss to the Bears.

Myers converted a chip-shot 27-yard field goal in the second quarter but later missed an extra point wide to the left before halftime. He then had a 33-yard field-goal try blocked in the fourth quarter. On the season, the veteran kicker is 14-for-16 on FGAs and 17-for-19 on PATs. He'll be a kicker to stream next Sunday at home against the Cardinals.

Santos made both field-goal tries and all four PATs in Monday night's 34-17 win over the Seahawks.

Santos made 44- and 38-yard field goals in the second quarter. It was a nice bounce-back game for the veteran kicker after he'd missed a field-goal try in each of the previous three games. For the season, Santos is 13-for-17 on FGAs and a perfect 25-for-25 on PATs. Being attached to the Bears offense makes Santos an attractive fantasy kicker.

Price rushed 10 times for 29 yards and brought in two of four targets for eight yards in the Seahawks' 34-17 loss to the Bears on Monday night.

Making his return from a four-game stay on injured reserve due to a chest injury, Price ended up leading the Seahawks' ground attack in carries and rushing yards. Price's return coincided with the season debut of Zach Charbonnet (knee), who logged six carries in his own right in a game whose script eventually turned unfriendly to the running game. Monday may have served as a preview of that might be expected in terms of the division of labor between the two players, but more information will be gleaned during a Week 9 home matchup against the Cardinals on Sunday that should afford both backs more opportunities.

Williams completed 24 of 34 passes for 247 yards with one touchdown and no interceptions and rushed twice for one yard in the Bears' 34-17 win over the Seahawks on Monday night.

Williams helped set the tone for the Bears' statement road victory by leading a 17-play, 80-yard march that absorbed 8:32 of the first quarter, one the third-year signal-caller capped off with a one-yard touchdown pass to Luther Burden. Williams then managed the game effectively from that point forward, avoiding mistakes while leaning on a workhorse performance from D'Andre Swift (27 carries, three touchdowns) and an often dominating effort from his defense. Williams now has a three-game streak of interception-free performances and is up to 1,267 passing yards through five contests heading into a Week 9 home matchup against the Buccaneers on Sunday night.

Raymond finished Monday's 34-17 win against Seattle with two catches for 14 yards on three targets along with one rush for 39 yards.

Raymond's most memorable contribution was a 39-yard dash on a third-down play early in the fourth quarter to take the ball down to Seattle's five-yard line and set up a D'Andre Swift touchdown. Though he didn't put up massive numbers, Raymond's 53 total yards were his most since Week 3 and represented more yardage than he had recorded over his previous four games combined. Raymond remains a shaky fantasy play given his recent numbers, and a Week 9 matchup against a Tampa Bay defense that has been pretty stingy on wideouts doesn't improve his outlook.

Odunze brought in four of six targets for 87 yards in the Bears' 34-17 win over the Seahawks on Monday night.

Odunze's yardage total led the Bears on the night while finishing second in receptions and targets. The third-year wideout's catch and yardage totals both qualified as his second highest of the season, and Odunze now has 156 receiving yards over the last pair of contests for his most productive two-game stretch this season. Odunze is averaging a career-best 16.7 yards per catch and already has a career-high 14 catches of 20-plus yards heading into a Week 9 home matchup against the Buccaneers on Sunday night.
