Monday Injury Report
The Seahawks did not practice today as they were given the day off to recover from Sunday's loss to the Vikings but released an estimated injury report had the team participated today. Five players were listed as non-participants, two due to injury and three for resting purposes. Kenneth Walker III would not have been able to participate today because of an ankle injury that he sustained in Sunday's loss to the Vikings. Walker has been battling an ankle and calf injury in recent weeks and was forced to miss two games because of his injuries. He returned to game action on Sunday but had to exit the game in the fourth quarter and was not able to return. "There are no updates right now on him but he's getting the tests done," said head coach Mike Macdonald in Monday's press conference. "We'll have a good idea on what it looks like over the next day or two."
Tight end Brady Russell remains out due to a foot injury that has kept him from playing in four games this season. Russell sat out two games in November and the last two after re-injuring his foot. Three players, Abraham Lucas, Ernest Jones IV, and Leonard Williams were given injury/NIR-rest designations which has been a common occurrence in recent weeks, but they have been able to play in every game.
Five players would have been limited participants due to injuries on Monday. Zach Charbonnet, who was listed with an oblique injury last week, saw limited snaps in Week 16 and is now listed with an elbow injury. When asked about Charbonnet on Monday afternoon, head coach Macdonald was confident that he will be okay. "It seemed like he was limited during the game, but signs are positive with Zach right now." Linebackers Derick Hall and Uchenna Nwosu are listed with shoulder and wrist injuries respectively. Two starters on the offensive side of the ball, Noah Fant and Olu Oluwatimi, would have been limited with knee injuries.
Safety K'Von Wallace is the lone Seahawk who was listed as a full participant. Wallace was designated to return from practice earlier this month after spending four weeks on injured reserve but has yet to be activated for gameday since returning.
