Everett caught all five of his targets for 54 yards in Sunday's 30-17 loss to the Vikings.
EDGE Analysis
After managing only three catches for 23 yards on four targets through his first two games as a Seahawk -- albeit with a touchdown -- Everett was more involved as a receiver in Minnesota. DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett are entrenched as Russell Wilson's top options, but the tight end could emerge as a reliable No. 3 target for Seattle. The 1-2 squad will face another test in Week 4 on the road against the 49ers.

Everett caught one of two targets for three yards in Sunday's 33-30 loss to the Titans.
EDGE Analysis
Everett logged 43 offensive snaps (80 percent) while fellow tight end Will Dissly finished with 26 snaps (48 percent). Dissly didn't receive a target, as Week 2 was the latest example of how difficult it is to trust a Seattle pass-catcher besides Tyler Lockett or DK Metcalf.

Everett caught both of his targets for 20 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 28-16 win over the Colts.
EDGE Analysis
Everett caught a quick slant for a nine-yard touchdown on the second drive of the game. The former Ram wasn't targeted the rest of the day, while fellow tight end Will Dissly finished with three catches for 37 yards. The Seahawks lost two of their five wide receivers -- Dee Eskridge and Penny Hart -- to concussions in the season opener, so Everett may be counted on more in Week 2 against the Titans if neither player is cleared in time.

Everett brought in his only target for two yards in the Seahawks' 27-0 preseason win over the Chargers on Saturday night.
EDGE Analysis
The offseason acquisition saw minimal action come his way after not playing in the loss to the Raiders last Saturday. Despite not having shown much yet in a Seahawks uniform, Everett is expected to serve as the top tight end on a depth chart that also includes Will Dissly, who's shown flashes in his first three seasons, and 2020 fourth-round pick Colby Parkinson (foot).

Everett didn't suit up for Saturday's preseason loss at Las Vegas, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Coach Pete Carroll held out the team's presumed top four tight ends -- also, Will Dissly, Colby Parkinson (foot) and Tyler Mabry -- in this contest, so there's not much to gather from the situation. Still, Everett was brought in on a one-year $6 million contract to help account for the loss of the retired Greg Olsen. Everett didn't really impress during for seasons with the Rams, topping out at 41 catches, 417 yards and three TDs in any of those campaigns. Expect Everett and Dissly to vie for the No. 1 and 2 spots on the depth chart.

Coach Pete Carroll, when asked about a potential breakout candidate for 2021, named Everett on Thursday, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Per Liz Matthews of USA Today, Carroll indicated that Everett has brought some added speed and route running ability to the position the Seahawks have been lacking. Everett will have to contend with Will Dissly for reps at tight end but will likely be the favorite to stay on the field in single tight end sets given the team's investment in him this offseason.

Seattle signed Everett to a one-year contract Wednesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Seahawks have had plenty of opportunities to evaluate Everett over the last four years, as he spent that time with a division rival over in Los Angeles. Everett was never quite able to establish himself as a consistent fantasy option with the Rams while sharing reps with Tyler Higbee, though he did flash potential -- including a career game against Seattle back in 2019 with seven catches for 136 yards on 11 targets. Everett should have an easier path to No. 1 reps at his new landing spot, though Will Dissly is around to offer competition.

Everett isn't expected to sign an extension with the Rams, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Selected in the second round of the 2017 NFL Draft, Everett never established himself as a reliable contributor in the Los Angeles passing attack. The 26-year-old tight end flashed big-play potential with 17 of his 127 career receptions going for over 20 yards, but he still never fully capitalized on his opportunities or took advantage of his athletic gifts. Everett did post career-high marks in receptions (41), receiving yards (417) and offensive snaps (636) this season, though, and it often takes tight ends longer to establish themselves as serviceable fantasy assets. A change of scenery could be helpful for Everett.

Everett failed to catch his lone target during Saturday's 30-20 win over Seattle.
EDGE Analysis
The fourth-year tight end's only target came on Los Angeles' opening drive, and it was a bit surprising to see him so uninvolved after receiving seven targets last week against Arizona. However, the Rams only attempted 25 passes all game, so there weren't a lot of looks to go around. Everett has also been quiet of late with just seven receptions for 75 yards over the past five games. L.A. may need to attack vertically more frequently against the Packers in Saturday's divisional-round matchup, so there's potential for Everett to have a solid showing. Still, fantasy managers probably will want to keep expectations in check given his recent form.

Everett caught just two of seven targets for 25 yards during Sunday's 18-7 win over Arizona.
EDGE Analysis
The fourth-year tight end finished the season with a career-high 41 receptions, 417 receiving yards and 587 offensive snaps. However, Everett still wasn't able to take the next step and become a reliable fantasy asset in most settings, and he's a long shot to make a major statistical impact in the wild-card matchup against Seattle.
