Seahawks WR Tory Horton Out With Fractured Shin: Survivor Read

Tory Horton's rookie season cut short

Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald confirmed that receiver Tory Horton will be "out for a period of time" after undergoing surgery to repair a fractured shin. The injury ends what had been a promising rookie campaign for Horton, taking one of Seattle's young pass-catchers off the board indefinitely.

What it means for your survivor pick

One injury to a rotational rookie receiver isn't reason to overhaul your board, but it does thin Seattle's depth at a spot where the Seahawks were counting on Horton's development. If you're weighing Seattle as a survivor pick, treat this as a small negative rather than a dealbreaker — the offense doesn't hinge on a first-year wideout, but losing him removes a piece of the upside. Keep an eye on how the rest of the receiving corps absorbs the snaps before committing, and match Seattle against the strength of that week's opponent.
