Noah Fant, the tight end for the Seattle Seahawks, has been ruled out for the Week 9 game against the Los Angeles Rams due to a groin injury. This absence is particularly impactful as the Seahawks also miss wide receiver DK Metcalf, who is recovering from an MCL sprain.

Fant's injury, which occurred during practice, marks his first missed game since joining the Seahawks. The team is optimistic about his recovery but remains uncertain about his return timeline. With the Seahawks facing a bye week, fans and fantasy managers are eager for updates on his status.

Fant has been a key player in the Seahawks' passing game, contributing significantly with 27 receptions and 285 yards this season. His potential return will be closely monitored as the team navigates through injuries in their receiving corps.
