 T.J. Houshmandzadeh-WR- SeahawksNov. 15 - 8:11 pm et
T.J. Houshmandzadeh caught nine passes for 165 yards against the Cardinals in Week 10.
While Nate Burleson was getting shut out, Housh enjoyed his best game as a Seahawk. Housh made up for his subpar speed with terrific hands and an incredible 17 targets. Not typically a big-play threat, he came through with gains of 53 and 34 yards against Arizona. He'll have a tougher time against the Vikings next week.

T.J. Houshmandzadeh caught six passes for 34 yards and a touchdown in Week 9.
Houshmandzadeh beat Lions rookie linebacker DeAndre Levy on his two-yard touchdown in the third quarter. On pace for 82 catches for 834 yards and six receiving scores, Houshmandzadeh has merely been a WR3 play in fantasy.

T.J. Houshmandzadeh caught four passes for 24 yards in Week 8.
Housh still isn't making anything happen after the catch. He is a reliable possession receiver, but it's easy to see now why so few teams heavily pursued him in the offseason. He's not worth the $40M contract GM Tim Ruskell gave him.

T.J. Houshmandzadeh caught four balls for 34 yards in Week 6.
Seattle's offense was completely ineffective, so Housh did well just to lead the team in receiving. He was the only Seahawk to catch more than two passes. The Cards had the No. 32 pass defense coming into the game, but Matt Hasselbeck couldn't capitalize behind his swinging gate of an offensive line.

T.J. Houshmandzadeh wants to see the ball thrown his way more in Seattle.
"I've just got to get these coaches to realize, throw me the ball. Maybe I've said it too much," said Housh on Friday. He has 27 catches this season, which isn't all that bad, but for the five-year, $40 million contract he signed, it's disappointing. It's his fewest receptions through five games since 2005. T.J. has picked it up as of late, though.

T.J. Houshmandzadeh caught five passes for 77 yards and two touchdowns against the Jaguars in Week 5.
The Jags came into the game with the league's worst secondary, and Housh spend the afternoon burning their best corner, Rashean Mathis. With 13 catches for 180 yards and two touchdown the past two weeks, he's streaking into next week's matchup against the Cardinals.
 T.J. Houshmandzadeh-WR- SeahawksOct. 4 - 4:25 pm et
T.J. Houshmandzadeh caught eight passes for 103 yards in Week 4 against the Colts.
Houshmandzadeh did a lot of that damage in garbage time, but his owners will take it after he totaled just 145 yards on 14 grabs through three games. He's now on pace for 992 yards on 88 catches, but has yet to reach the end zone.

T.J. Houshmandzadeh didn't take the blame for his four catch, 35 yard performance Sunday against the Bears.
Earlier in the week, Houshmandzadeh said he would win 95 percent of the time against the Bears defensive backs. That clearly wasn't the case Sunday. "But I was open all game. They just didn't throw me the ball," Houshmandzadeh said. Nate Burleson led the Seahawks with nine catches.

 T.J. Houshmandzadeh-WR- SeahawksSep. 27 - 8:44 pm et
T.J. Houshmandzadeh had four catches for 35 yards in Sunday's loss to the Bears.
Houshmandzadeh also lost a critical fumble late in the game. He did leave the game briefly while trainers looked at his hand, but the injury didn't appear to be a factor as he came back in the game and pulled down a jump ball. Housh's value is hurt when Matt Hasselbeck (ribs) doesn't play, as he didn't Sunday.
 T.J. Houshmandzadeh-WR- SeahawksSep. 25 - 5:22 pm et
T.J. Houshmandzadeh (back, probable) practiced fully again Friday.
He'll start Sunday, but may continue to struggle to generate yards-after-catch against Bears CB Peanut Tillman. Housh's QB will also be Seneca Wallace.

T.J. Houshmandzadeh (back) returned to a full practice Thursday, as expected.
Housh could be a safety blanket for Seneca Wallace if Matt Hasselbeck sits against the Bears on Sunday, but the offense will likely produce fewer scoring opportunities.

The Seahawks held T.J. Houshmandzadeh (back) out of practice Wednesday.
"He'll be good to go on Sunday," coach Jim Mora said. Housh showed little in the first two weeks, with just 110 yards. He's only a WR3 against Chicago.

 T.J. Houshmandzadeh-WR- SeahawksSep. 20 - 8:03 pm et
T.J. Houshmandzadeh caught four passes for 62 yards in Week 2.
Housh led Seattle in receiving, but was again no threat after the catch as Nate Clements bottled him up just about every time he got the football. Housh's short-passing game skills won't be a bad fit with Seneca Wallace's dump-off heavy mindset, but Housh will struggle to post big yardage.
 T.J. Houshmandzadeh-WR- SeahawksSep. 20 - 2:42 pm et
T.J. Houshmandzadeh is active for Week 2 against the 49ers.
Houshmandzadeh didn't practice much this past week, but was listed as probable on Friday's injury report and was never in danger of missing a game. The Seahawks' inactives are third QB Mike Teel, CB Travis Fisher, LB LeRoy Hill, C Chris Spencer, T Walter Jones, WR Deion Branch, DT Brandon Mebane, and DT Michael Bennett. Mebane's loss is a blow to Seattle's pass rush.

T.J. Houshmandzadeh (probable, back) returned to practice Friday and is on schedule to start Sunday against San Francisco.
Look for usual LCB Nate Clements to shadow Housh all over the field.

T.J. Houshmandzadeh (back spasms) missed a second straight practice Thursday.
Housh has made it a habit to miss Wednesday and Thursday practices. Just to be sure, check Friday's official report before inserting him into your starting lineup this week.

T.J. Houshmandzadeh was held out of Seahawks practice Wednesday with a "ribs" injury.
Housh routinely was given Wednesday practices off as a Bengal, and this may be precautionary. The 32-year-old's injury almost certainly isn't serious.

T.J. Houshmandzadeh caught six passes for 48 yards in the Seahawks' Week 1 win over St. Louis.
Houshmandzadeh generated very few yards after the catch, but we'll take the effort in PPR leagues. He remains a safe bet to pace Seattle in receptions.
 T.J. Houshmandzadeh-WR- SeahawksAug. 7 - 9:49 am et
Matt Hasselbeck says new No. 1 WR T.J. Houshmandzadeh is standing out when it matters most.
"He really shows up in the red zone and he really shows up on third down," Hasselbeck said. That's Housh's game. He's better off as a red zone and possession receiver. No matter what Houshmandzadeh thinks of himself, it's unlikely he'll suddenly emerge as a deep threat in this offense.

T.J. Houshmandzadeh is boycotting the 2010 version of the Madden NFL video game over his "low" rating this season.
"I understand I averaged 10 yards a catch, but it's the offense, not me. I'm not playing Madden no more until they get my rating right," said Houshmandzadeh. For what it's worth, Housh's 91 rating is sixth best among NFC receivers.
