Coach Pete Carroll said Wednesday of Chancellor that "He's not here, and he's not playing." Chancellor appears willing to sit out the entire season if his demands are not met, putting Dion Bailey in the starting role for the first time in his career. (Ian Rapoport on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact:
Chancellor is one of the best safeties in the league, and generates tackles and turnovers impressively from a secondary position. Even more importantly, he is the perfect defensive counterpart to Earl Thomas, Bailey physically looks and moves similarly to Chancellor, but it is a lot to ask for him to immediately fill in, and the Seahawks are likely to struggle to replace him entirely
