Seahawks' AJ Barner: On field at camp
Barner (undisclosed) is participating in the start of Seattle's training camp, Curtis Crabtree of Fox 13 reports.
Barner's availability to open camp is a positive early sign after he missed offseason workouts due to a pair of undisclosed surgeries. The 2024 fourth-rounder is looking to defend his role as the Seahawks' clear top tight end in a room that also includes second-year option Elijah Arroyo. Barner started all 17 regular-season games in 2025, totaling 52 catches (on 68 targets) for 519 yards and six touchdowns.

Seahawks' AJ Barner: Expected to be ready for camp
Barner (undisclosed) is expected to be ready for training camp, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
The team has been vague on what Barner underwent his pair of surgeries for, but the tight end dealt with hip, elbow, shoulder, knee, ankle and calf injuries in the latter half of last season and into the playoffs. Despite the nagging issues, Barner started all 17 regular-season games, producing a 52-519-6 line on 68 targets. He added another six catches for 67 yards and one touchdown across three playoff contests.

Seahawks' AJ Barner: Sidelined at OTAs
Barner (undisclosed) is not participating in OTAs on Wednesday while recovering from what Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald alluded to as offseason procedures, Bob Condotta of the Seattle Times reports.
Barner played through shoulder and ankle injuries last season, but he nonetheless suited up for all 17 regular-season games while totaling a 52-519-6 line on 68 targets. The 2024 fourth-rounder also operated as the TE1 for all three of the Seahawks' postseason games. Macdonald said Barner will "probably" be available for training camp and is "itching to get out there." With Barner sidelined for OTAs, however, 2025 second-round pick Elijah Arroyo has reportedly impressed and begun taking a step forward in his development. While Barner remains No. 1 tight end for Seattle's offense entering the 2026 campaign, it's possible Arroyo will earn an increased target share in Year 2.

Seahawks' AJ Barner: Scores lone offensive touchdown
Barner caught all four targets for 54 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 29-13 win over the Patriots in the Super Bowl.
All four of Barner's catches went for first downs, and he finished second on the team in receiving yards behind Cooper Kupp (61). Barner's first postseason touchdown -- a 16-yard reception where he was wide open -- essentially put the game away for the Seahawks in the fourth quarter. The Seahawks trusted the second-year tight end with blocking and pass-catching duties all season, and he finished with 58 receptions for 586 yards and seven touchdowns across 20 games, including the postseason. He should be the leader for the No. 1 TE role in 2026 despite the addition of Elijah Arroyo -- a second-round pick in 2025.

Seahawks' AJ Barner: Quiet in win
Barner caught two of three targets for 13 yards in Sunday's 31-27 win over the Rams in the NFC Championship Game.
Barner didn't record a catch in the NFC divisional-round win over the 49ers, and he had a limited role in this contest despite playing 64 of 67 offensive snaps. The second-year tight end reeled in six touchdown passes over 17 regular-season games, so he'll have some upside due to his role in the Super Bowl versus the Patriots.

Seahawks' AJ Barner: No catches in blowout win
Barner wasn't targeted in Saturday's 41-6 win over the 49ers in the divisional round.
QB Sam Darnold attempted just 17 passes because the Seahawks' defense and special teams were so effective to start the game, and Barner was unable to draw his attention. However, he did rush once for two yards to pick up a first down. The second-year tight end out of Michigan is reliant on touchdowns for his fantasy value. He found the end zone six times during the regular season.

Seahawks' AJ Barner: Snares two passes in win
Barner caught two of three targets in Saturday's 13-3 win over the 49ers.
Barner finished the regular season second on the Seahawks in receptions (52), third in receiving yards (519) and second in receiving touchdowns (six). He also added one rushing score. Barner is an intriguing player with weekly touchdown upside, and he'll get a week of rest before the Seahawks begin their playoff run in the NFC divisional round.
