2025 Fantasy Outlook
The Seahawks hope Arroyo can overcome his lengthy history of knee injuries to make the most of his impressive physical traits. He had just 11 catches in his first three seasons at the University of Miami, with knee injuries costing him large chunks of the 2022 and 2023 campaigns, before breaking out for a 35-590-7 receiving line in 13 games last year. Arroyo then suffered another knee injury at the Senior Bowl, which prevented him from doing pre-draft testing but didn't stop Seattle from picking him 50th overall. At 6-foot-5, 250 pounds, Arroyo has prototypical size and speed for a NFL tight end, and he'll head to camp as the No. 1 TE on the depth chart after Seattle released Noah Fant in July. Arroyo confirmed in May that he's no longer bothered by his knee injury from the Senior Bowl, potentially setting the stage for full participation in spring practices and training camp.

Generates 44 yards in win
Arroyo caught two of four targets for 44 yards in Thursday's 23-20 win over the Cardinals.
ANALYSIS
Arroyo gained 32 yards on one reception, and he was targeted in the end zone in the second quarter, too. The rookie played 55 percent of the offensive snaps, and while he's still the No. 2 tight end behind AJ Barner, Arroyo's snap counts and usage are rising. He'll look to continue his ascent in Week 5 against the Buccaneers.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Team cuts veteran TE
Arroyo has a clearer path to playing time, as Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that the Seahawks released Noah Fant on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Fant led Seattle's tight ends with 500 receiving yards in 2024 and has at least 414 receiving yards in each of his six NFL regular seasons. His departure will open up significant additional opportunities for Arroyo and AJ Barner. The Seahawks drafted Arroyo in the second round of the 2025 NFL Draft after selecting Barner in the fourth round in 2024.
