Seahawks Week 1 injury report: 2 players ruled out

Happy first Blue Friday of the year, 12’s! With the NFL officially kicking off last night in Kansas City, we are merely hours away from Seahawks football being back. Seattle will start their 2023 campaign at Lumen Field like they did last year.

Fortunately for the Seahawks, Friday’s injury report looks a lot better than it did on Thursday. The good news is a few key starters do not have game time designations. Running back Kenneth Walker III appeared on the list in limited action at practice, but is set to be fine for the game. Rookie receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba has been a full participant and is in a similar boat as Walker.
