Purdy faces Seattle's elite pass defense; avoid despite strong season start.

Purdy is a landmine start in Week 5 against Seattle despite averaging 25.1 fantasy points per game over the first four weeks. The Seahawks have held quarterbacks to 11.6 fantasy points per game (second-fewest in NFL), with opposing QBs averaging only 161.3 passing yards and totaling 189 or fewer yards in every contest. Purdy specifically has struggled against Seattle historically, averaging only 175.8 passing yards, 0.8 touchdowns and 11.4 fantasy points per game in his past four matchups against the divisional rivals, scoring 5.3 or fewer points twice. His Week 4 performance against Denver (19.6 points) signals vulnerability against elite defenses.
