The Seahawks lost a couple of young play-makers to injuries just before the preseason started. One was rookie running back Kenny McIntosh, who’s only now returning from the leg injury he suffered during that game. Another was second-year wide receiver Dareke Young, who had to have surgery for a hip abductor issue in September.
Good news there: Young has been designated to return to practice by the Seahawks.

Seattle now has three weeks to activate Young from the injured reserve list and put him on the active 53-man roster.
Young (6-foot-2, 224 pounds) appeared in 13 games as a rookie, working primarily on special teams. He caught two passes and totaled 12 receiving yards. When he returns to the lineup Young projects as the fifth wide receiver on the depth chart beneath DK Metcalf, Tyler Lockett, Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Jake Bobo.
