Baldwin missed Wednesday’s practice and was limited on Thursday with a groin injury, but returned on Friday at full capacity. Baldwin is listed as probable on the injury report and is “ready to roll,“ Head Coach Pete Carroll said.
Fantasy Spin: Baldwin has one of the best matchups a fantasy owner could ask for this week versus a Giants secondary that has been decimated by injuries. Expect an up-tempo attack from the defending champs that should feature Baldwin frequently as they attack the weak spot of their opponent.
The Giants are already allowing the fourth-most yards per game and will now enter an especially hostile environment with their secondary at its most depleted state yet this year. Baldwin can be penned into lineups as a WR3 with considerable upside.
