Seahawks' Elijah Arroyo: One snag in victory
Arroyo caught his only target for 17 yards during Sunday's 31-7 win over Arizona.
Arroyo was on the field for just 15 of the team's 70 offensive snaps, but he was at least able to secure his first catch of the year in the victory. The tight end logged 13 snaps with the special-teams unit, and at this point, he doesn't have any fantasy appeal unless something happens to AJ Barner.

Seahawks' Elijah Arroyo: Non-factor in Week 1 win
Arroyo wasn't targeted in Wednesday's 13-10 win over the Patriots.
Arroyo was on the field for 11 of Seattle's 50 snaps on offense while AJ Barner played 44 snaps and caught two passes, suggesting there is still a substantial gap between the Seahawks' top two tight ends. After flashing some receiving upside during the preseason, it looks like Arroyo may not get enough playing time to make much of an impact on offense, at least while Barner is healthy.

Seahawks' Elijah Arroyo: Another chunk play Friday
Arroyo secured his only target for a 24-yard reception in the Seahawks' 9-9 preseason tie with the Chiefs on Friday.
The second-year tight end had recorded a 36-yard touchdown grab in Sunday's exhibition against the Titans, and Arroyo followed that up with another big play Friday on his 24-yard grab during Seattle's second possession. Arroyo is expected to operate as the No. 2 pass-catching option at tight end behind AJ Barner, but veteran Eric Saubert is expected to see his fair share of snaps as well thanks to his blocking prowess.

Seahawks' Elijah Arroyo: Scores 36-yard TD in preseason loss
Arroyo caught two of four targets for 50 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 19-16 preseason loss to the Titans.
Arroyo capped Seattle's opening drive with a 36-yard touchdown reception from Drew Lock. After producing only 179 receiving yards in his rookie regular season, Arroyo is trying to earn a larger role in his second NFL campaign. The 2025 second-round pick is set to open his sophomore season as the team's No. 2 TE behind AJ Barner.

Seahawks' Elijah Arroyo: Chance for larger Year 2 role
Arroyo will enter training camp as a candidate to secure an expanded role on offense with the Seahawks, Justin Melo of USA Today reports.
Arroyo is expected to see more opportunities in 2026 after catching 15 passes for 179 yards and one touchdown across 13 regular-season games as a rookie. AJ Barner remains atop Seattle's depth chart, but Arroyo's athleticism gives him a path to increased usage in passing situations and two-tight end sets. Injuries limited Arroyo's involvement last season, so better health could be all the 2025 second-rounder requires to take a notable step forward.

Seahawks' Elijah Arroyo: Plays depth role in rookie season
Arroyo caught 15 of 26 targets for 179 yards and one touchdown across 13 regular-season games in 2025.
The 2025 second-round pick from Miami operated as Seattle's No. 2 tight end for most of the season but missed the team's final four regular-season games due to a knee injury. Arroyo's offensive role diminished as the season progressed. He caught 11 of 17 targets for 140 yards over his first seven games but totaled 39 yards and a touchdown on four receptions (nine targets) during his final six regular-season contests. Despite this late-season dip in production, the 22-year-old is expected to compete for a larger offensive role this offseason.

Seahawks' Elijah Arroyo: Sitting out NFC Championship
Arroyo (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Rams.
Arroyo was activated injured reserve Friday after he was a full participant in practice for the second week in a row, but the Seahawks apparently weren't comfortable making the rookie second-round pick one of their three active tight ends Sunday. With Arroyo sitting out, Eric Saubert and Nick Kallerup will serve as the reserve options at tight end behind AJ Barner.

Seahawks' Elijah Arroyo: Activated Friday
Arroyo (knee) was activated from IR on Friday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Arroyo has been sidelined for the Seahawks' last five contests due to a knee injury sustained in Week 14, but it now appears he's ready to return for the NFC Championship game against the Rams. The 2025 second-round pick from Miami has had a solid rookie campaign, catching 15 of 26 targets for 179 yards and a touchdowns across 13 regular-season appearances. Now fully healthy, Arroyo is expected to operate as Seattle's No. 2 tight end Sunday, playing behind AJ Barner.

Seahawks' Elijah Arroyo: Logs full practice Wednesday
Arroyo (knee) was a full participant at practice Wednesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Arroyo has been on Seattle's injured reserve list for the past five games due to a knee injury he suffered in Week 14 at Atlanta, but his activity at practice signals he could return to game action for the NFC Championship. With any limits on his reps apparently behind him, the Seahawks would just need to officially activate him from IR prior to Sunday's game versus the Rams.

Seahawks' Elijah Arroyo: Staying on IR for divisional round
Arroyo (knee) has been ruled out for Saturday's NFC divisional-round game against the 49ers, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Arroyo was a full participant in all three practices this week, but he hasn't recovered quite enough from a knee injury to be activated from injured reserve. The rookie second-rounder's next chance to play would be in the NFC Championship Game if the Seahawks emerge victorious Saturday.
