# Connor J. Benintendi: Benintendi predicts Montorie Foster Jr. will be a legitimate offensive weapon for Seattle in 2026, serving as the presumed WR4 if Tory Horton isn't healthy, and contributing on both offense and special teams. **Claimed:** Sep 3, 2026 **Pundit:** Connor J. Benintendi — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/pundits/connor-j-benintendi **Outlet:** Sports Illustrated — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/outlets/sports-illustrated **How it reached us:** published in writing **Original:** https://www.si.com/nfl/seahawks/onsi/montorie-foster-offensive-weapon-seahawks One checkable claim, graded on its own against what actually happened. It names 2 players and teams, each linked to their own record. Nothing to score yet: this grades once the result is in. Of the 1 unsettled call enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands below the rest of the room. > Foster will be legitimate offensive weapon in 2026 *(their words, quoted for attribution)* ## The claims - **Montorie Foster Jr to be 4th on the depth chart** - Kind: Depth Chart Calls · About: Montorie Foster Jr, Seattle Seahawks - Verdict: not settled yet ## Who this take is about - Montorie Foster Jr — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/players/montorie-foster-jr - Seattle Seahawks — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/teams/seahawks ## What others said about the same people - Michael Hanich on Seattle Seahawks: Hanich argues the Week 2 road game at Arizona is not a true trap game, citing Seattle's long winning streak in the series, Mike Macdonald's preparation and injuries in the Cardinals' secondary, and rates his confidence in the Seahawks at 7.
