Seahawks expect Doug Baldwin (knee) to miss 'a couple of weeks'

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Doug Baldwin (knee) is not expected to play on Monday night against the Chicago Bears, per head coach Pete Carroll.

What It Means:

Baldwin, who suffered a partial tear in his MCL, is not expected to play in Week 3 versus the Dallas Cowboys either. Missing those two games would fall right in line with the initial timeline of 2-to-4 weeks for a knee sprain (Grade 2) of this severity. Tyler Lockett and Brandon Marshall will see a bump in fantasy value with Baldwin out.

Our models project Baldwin for 68.8 catches, 967.1 yards, and 6.5 touchdowns the rest of the season if he is able to return in Week 4.
