Seahawks coach Pete Carroll said Geno Smith‘s knee is “fine” heading into the team’s Week 6 matchup with the Bengals.
Fantasy Impact
Smith briefly left the last Seahawks game in Week 4 against the Giants before returning. With Seattle being on bye last week, Smith should be fully healthy for Sunday’s game against the Bengals.

Diontae Johnson (hamstring) targeting a Week 7 return
Steelers WR Diontae Johnson (hamstring) is targeting a Week 7 return.
Fantasy Impact
Johnson was placed on injured reserve after suffering a mild hamstring injury in Week 1. His return should be a boost for a struggling Steelers’ offense. Once Johnson returns, fantasy managers can expect him to help boost Kenny Pickett‘s fantasy value.
