Seahawks say Chris Carson (foot) will return Week 12

Seattle Seahawks running back Chris Carson (foot) will return for Week 12 against the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday night, according to head coach Pete Carroll.

What It Means:

Carson hasn't played since Week 7. Carlos Hyde returned from a hamstring issue Thursday night and produced 95 yards on 16 touches with a touchdown in a victory over the Arizona Cardinals. Carson's return will make Hyde unusable in most fantasy formats but it should be a boost for a Seahawks team that went 2-3 with him banged up.

Carson is averaging 17.9 FanDuel points in his five healthy games this season. He also ranks third in numberFire's rushing efficiency metric out of 52 running backs with at least 50 carries this season.
