Baldwin caught eight of 10 targets for 164 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 37-18 win over the 49ers.
EDGE Analysis
Baldwin gutted it out Sunday, after suffering a knee injury in Week 2, and made a number of big plays in the first quarter, including a gorgeous catch on the sideline and a 34-yard reception. He later had a 59-yard grab and a fourth-quarter touchdown from backup Trevone Boykin, who replaced an injured Russell Wilson (ankle). Assuming Baldwin didn't suffer any setbacks Sunday, he'll face CB Darrelle Revis and the Jets in Week 4, with Wilson's health something to monitor.

Baldwin (knee) doesn't have an injury designation on the final injury report of the week.
EDGE Analysis
After returning to a full practice Thursday, the Seahawks' top receiver didn't seem to be in any danger of missing Sunday's game against San Francisco. Friday's injury report merely confirms that Baldwin will indeed take the field.

Baldwin (knee) practiced fully Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Baldwin's underwhelming Week 2 performance at Los Angeles could be explained away by the knee injury sustained during that contest. After an MRI was returned negative Monday, he proceeded to practice in a limited capacity Wednesday, but both Baldwin and head coach Pete Carroll have expressed consistant optimism regarding his Week 3 availability. On Thursday, the wideout even told Curtis Crabtree of Sports Radio KJR that he will play Sunday versus the 49ers, "barring a setback."

Baldwin (knee) practiced in a limited fashion Wednesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Baldwin was in a great deal of pain following Sunday's loss at Los Angeles, but a subsequent MRI revealed no structural damage in his knee. During media availability prior to practice Wednesday, head coach Pete Carroll said that Baldwin "had a little knee twist" in Week 2. "He did well in the walk thru today," Carroll continued. "He looked fine. He thinks he's going to be fine and he'll practice throughout the week." Whether Baldwin is able to log a full practice remains to be seen, but barring a setback, he's setting himself up to play this Sunday against the 49ers.

Baldwin's (knee) MRI taken Monday returned negative, ESPN's Josina Anderson reports.
EDGE Analysis
Baldwin expressed discomfort with the way his knee felt following Sunday's loss to the Rams, but gave a more positive update just a day later. Regardless of how tolerable Baldwin's knee condition is or isn't, the fact that Monday's MRI revealed no damage is encouraging. That being said, after also dealing with back spasms Sunday, it wouldn't be surprising if Baldwin is limited in some capacity during practice this week, as the Seahawks will surely want to have him as healthy as possible as they hope to fix their offense in Week 3 against the 49ers.

Baldwin, who recorded three catches for 20 yards during Sunday's loss in Los Angeles, will have an MRI on his knee Monday, Sheil Kapadia of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
In the aftermath of the contest, Baldwin described the knee as feeling "like crap" to Jayson Jenks of the Seattle Times. As if the knee concern wasn't bad enough, Baldwin contended with back spasms, yet he still tied for the team lead in targets with six. Head coach Pete Carroll all but confirmed the severity of the injury, noting that Baldwin will land on the injury report in advance of next Sunday's game against the 49ers.

Baldwin caught 9-of-11 targets for 92 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 12-10 win against Miami.
EDGE Analysis
Baldwin was having a decent game, but helped out Seattle and fantasy owners with a short touchdown in the final minute of the game. Russell Wilson was shaken up in the second half with an apparent ankle injury, but never missed any action. Assuming Wilson is fine, Baldwin should remain his top target in the passing game. Next up for Baldwin and the Seahawks will be the Rams.

Baldwin secured four of six targets for 29 yards in Thursday's 27-17 preseason victory over the Cowboys.
EDGE Analysis
Russell Wilson's favorite target actually gained 27 of his 29 yards on a single play, a nifty grab on a late first-quarter crossing pattern. Baldwin is one of the more intriguing fantasy options heading into 2016, given his impressive second-half statistical explosion last season that led to career highs in receptions, targets, yardage and touchdowns.

Baldwin hauled in both of his targets for 23 yards in Saturday's preseason debut at Kansas City.
EDGE Analysis
Baldwin immediately renewed his rapport with quarterback Russell Wilson, coming down with catches on each of Seattle's first two offensive plays. The veteran receiver didn't see much action in this one, but he should play a major role in the passing game after finding the end zone on 14 of his 78 receptions in 2015.

Baldwin returned to full participation in practice with a touchdown reception after missing about a week with a sore Achilles' tendon, the Tacoma New Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Baldwin got the TD pass from Russell Wilson out of the slot on the last play of practice. He was injured when a teammate stepped on the back of his foot, but it was never serious.
