Friday's Injury Report
When the Seahawks close out their season in Arizona, they will be without linebacker Bobby Wagner, who sprained his knee in last weekend's win over the Lions. Wagner, who last missed a game in 2018, was holding out hope that he could make it back, but he was ruled out on Friday. Wagner has already established a new franchise single-season record for tackles in a season with 170, breaking his own mark of 167 set in 2016, but with him missing the finale, fellow linebacker Jordyn Brooks, who currently has 163 tackles, has a shot to top that record. Cody Barton, who took over for Wagner last week, is expected to make the start in Wagner's place.
Also ruled out for Sunday's game are tackle Brandon Shell, who between a shoulder injury and a stint on the COVID-19 list, will close out the season missing the final five games. Cornerback John Reid was also ruled out due to a concussion.
The Seahawks have three players listed as questionable: tight end Will Dissly (heel), defensive end Carlos Dunlap (ankle) and right guard Gabe Jackson (knee).
The Cardinals will be without one and possibly both of their top two running backs, with Chase Edmonds ruled out due to rib and toe injuries, and with James Conner questionable due to a heel injury. The Cardinals will also be without starting defensive lineman Jordan Phillips, starting receiver Rondale Moore and starting cornerback Marco Wilson.

Thursday's Injury Report
The Seahawks had six players not practice due to injury for a second day in a row, including three who left last week's game with injuries: linebacker Bobby Wagner, tight end Will Dissly and linebacker Carlos Dunlap II. Safety Quandre Diggs, who didn't practice Wednesday, was a full participant on Thursday, while three linemen who were listed as non-participants due to illness a day earlier were all off the injury report and practicing on Thursday, including starting center Ethan Pocic.
DK Metcalf, who was limited Wednesday, was a full participant Thursday, meaning he practiced each of the first two days of the week, something he hasn't often been able to do this season while managing a foot in jury.

Wednesday's Injury Report
The Seahawks had a handful of key players sit out due to injury, including linebacker Bobby Wagner, who sprained his knee last weekend but who has not yet ruled out playing in Sunday's season finale, and two other players who left Seattle's Week 17 game with injuries, linebacker Carlos Dunlap II (ankle) and tight end Will Dissly (heel). Also not practicing was safety Quandre Diggs, who has been on the injury report for several weeks with a knee injury, but has not yet missed game action.
The Seahawks also appear to have a non-COVID-19 illness going around their offensive line group, with five linemen listed as not practicing, including starters Gabe Jackson, Ethan Pocic and Brandon Shell, though Shell is also dealing with a shoulder injury that Seahawks coach Pete Carroll said last week could keep him out for the rest of the season.
