The Seattle Seahawks are having a solid season under new head coach Mike Macdonald. The franchise has compiled a 4-4 record entering Week 9. The Seahawks have won against the Denver Broncos, New England Patriots, Miami Dolphins, and Atlanta Falcons while losing games against the Detroit Lions, New York Giants, San Francisco 49ers, and Buffalo Bills.
Let's take a look at the Seahawks' injury report ahead of the showdown against the Los Angeles Rams.
Seattle Seahawks injury report
DK Metcalf's injury update
According to the Seattle Seahawks injury report, DK Metcalf missed Wednesday and Thursday's training sessions. The veteran wide receiver has a Grade 1 MCL sprain.
According to ESPN, Metcalf's injury is currently considered a week-to-week issue. He'll need to play in Friday's session to have an outside chance of playing against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday.
Noah Fant's injury update
According to CBS Sports, Noah Fant did not practice on Thursday. The tight end is dealing with a groin issue.
It's important to note that Fant was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice session. It's likely that he tweaked his groin during the session, which made him miss all of Thursday's practice. Fant must now pass a late fitness test to play against the Rams on Sunday.
Cameron Young's injury update
According to the Seattle Seahawks injury report, Cameron Young did not practice with the team on Thursday. The nose tackle is dealing with a knee injury.
It's important to note that Young has missed significant time this season due to injuries. If he's unable to play on Sunday, then expect Roy Robertson-Harris and Byron Murphy to step up in his absence.
Riq Woolen's injury update
According to the Seattle Seahawks injury report, Riq Woolen has been a full participant in both Wednesday and Thursday's training sessions. The cornerback has dealt with ankle issues this season but looks to have put them behind him.
Woolen will likely start against the Los Angeles Rams and cover either Cooper Kupp or Puka Nacua.
