Seahawks vs. 49ers: Divisional Round Injury Report Revealed

The Seattle Seahawks have initiated their practice week, gearing up for the divisional round matchup against the San Francisco 49ers. Key players are nearing full health, contributing to an optimistic atmosphere as both teams prepare for the postseason.

Seahawks Injury Report

During Tuesday’s practice, the Seahawks nearly showcased their entire 53-man roster. Two players were notably absent: linebacker Tyrice Knight, sidelined due to a shoulder injury, and tackle Josh Jones. Jones stepped in at left tackle for the last three games of the regular season due to an injury to Charles Cross, and managed to play through knee and ankle issues in Week 18.

Returning Players

  • Charles Cross: Full participant after missing three games with a hamstring injury.
  • Coby Bryant: Full participant, having missed the last two games due to a knee injury.
  • Elijah Arroyo: Full participant, designated to return last week.
  • Chazz Surratt: Limited participant, designated to return on Tuesday.

Both Cross and Bryant’s returns align with Coach Mike Macdonald’s earlier predictions, as he had expressed confidence in their availability for the playoffs.

New Developments

New additions to the injury report include cornerback Riq Woolen, who is dealing with an oblique issue, and outside linebacker DeMarcus Lawrence, affected by an Achilles injury. Both were limited participants during practice.

49ers Injury Report

The 49ers, fresh off a wild card victory against the Eagles, conducted a walkthrough practice. Their injury report serves as an estimation of participation had they engaged in a full practice session.

Injury Status

  • Ricky Pearsall: Limited participation due to a knee injury.
  • Trent Williams: Limited participant, having returned from a hamstring injury.
  • Ji’Ayir Brown: Did not participate; suffering from a hamstring issue.
  • Luke Gifford: Did not participate due to a quadriceps injury.

As both teams prepare for this exciting divisional round clash, the health and readiness of key players will be pivotal in determining the outcome of the game.
