KANSAS CITY, Mo.—Seahawks coach Pete Carroll expressed optimism on Thursday that all four players listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Chiefs would be available, and Kenneth Walker III, Noah Fant, Marquise Goodwin and DeeJay Dallas are all active.
Walker has been dealing with an ankle injury that kept him out of practice all week, but will play for the second week in a row after missing Seattle's Week 14 game with the injury. Dallas will be making is return after missing two games with a high ankle sprain.
Goodwin, who injured his ankle in practice this week, is expected to take on a bigger role this week with Tyler Lockett out due to a hand injury. Also out due to injury are nose tackle Al Woods and safety Ryan Neal. Carroll said both Teez Tabor and Johnathan Abram will see playing time at safety in place of Neal.
With Walker and Dallas both active, running back Wayne Gallman Jr. is inactive after being elevated off the practice squad, while running back Godwin Igwebuike is active after being elevated for the third straight game.
Here are the inactives for both teams:

WR Tyler Lockett
