2025 Fantasy Outlook
Woolen is heading into the final year of his rookie contract. The UTSA product has started 46 games through three seasons, producing 162 tackles and 11 interceptions, including a pick-six. The 6-foot-4, 210-pound corner needs to improve as a consistent tackler, but he's a natural coverage corner with elite athleticism who's impossible to keep off the field. In the end, his fantasy numbers will likely lag behind his real-life value. Read Past Outlooks

Woolen (oblique) does not carry an injury designation into Saturday's NFC divisional-round game against the 49ers, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Woolen was limited in the first two practices of the week due to an oblique issue, but he faded an injury designation for Saturday's game after logging a full practice Thursday. The fourth-year pro ended the 2025 regular season with 41 tackles (33 solo) and 12 pass defenses (one interception) across 16 games.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
Woolen was once again a full-time starter for the Seahawks in 2023 and generated 53 tackles (42 solo), 11 pass breakups and two interceptions through 16 games. The 2022 fifth-round pick continued to impress in coverage, but he lacks consistent tackling skills that can make him exploitable against certain schemes. Woolen's starting role should be safe nonetheless, as his coverage ability and athleticism are sufficient, and the team didn't bring in competition this offseason anyway.
The Seahawks selected Woolen in the fifth round last year, and he was their second cornerback taken in the draft. However, his athleticism shined as he won a starting job and thrust himself into the Defensive Rookie of the Year conversation with 63 tackles, 16 pass breakups and six interceptions through 17 starts. The Seahawks drafted CB Devon Witherspoon fifth overall this year, but Woolen's starting spot on the other side still is secure for 2023.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Strong chance of being dealt
CBSeattle Seahawks
October 28, 2025
Woolen is a strong trade candidate ahead of the deadline, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Woolen was mentioned early in the season as a player on the block, and that doesn't seem to have changed. The cornerback isn't seen as a good fit for coach Mike Macdonald's scheme, though Woolen has played over 90 percent of the defensive snaps in five of his six games this season. Nehemiah Pritchett and Derion Kendrick have played only sparingly behind him, so a trade in the offseason could be more realistic for Woolen, particularly with the Seahawks in the running to win the NFC West.
