Seahawks' Uchenna Nwosu: Limited at walkthrough
Nwosu (knee) was estimated to be a limited participant at the Seahawks' walkthrough Wednesday, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Nwosu has been sidelined for the first four games of the season with an MCL sprain that he suffered in late August and he'll look to officially participate at practice Thursday. If he's forced to miss the team's Week 5 matchup with the Giants, Derick Hall and Tyrice Knight would be candidates to see extra snaps at linebacker.

Seahawks' Uchenna Nwosu: Doesn't practice Thursday
Nsowsu (knee) was listed as a DNP on the Seahawks' injury report Thursday, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.
Nwosu has yet to appear in a regular-season game due to a left MCL sprain he sustained in Seattle's preseason finale. He's at risk of missing a fourth consecutive game unless he's able to see the practice field in at least a limited capacity this week. Derick Hall (hip) has started at linebacker in Nwosu's absence, and the former has accrued nine tackles (five solo), including 3.0 sacks, over the first three games of the regular season.

Seahawks' Uchenna Nwosu: Still out Week 3
Nwosu (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup with Miami, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Nwosu suffered a left MCL sprain in Seattle's preseason finale and hasn't yet been able to suit up in the regular season. He didn't practice in any capacity this week, so it's not surprising that he's been deemed out for Sunday. Derick Hall has been seeing increased work in Nwosu's stead, but Hall is questionable to play Week 3 due to a hip injury.

Seahawks' Uchenna Nwosu: Not expected to play Sunday
Nwosu (knee) won't play Week 2 against the Patriots, Corbin K. Smith reports.
Nwosu is still recovering from a sprained MCL suffered in the Seahawks' final preseason game against the Browns. He was originally given a two- to six-week recovery timeline, which is just over two weeks old. Assuming he doesn't play Sunday, the USC product's next opportunity will be Week 3 against the Dolphins.

Seahawks' Uchenna Nwosu: Didn't play Sunday
Nwosu (knee) was inactive for Sunday's 26-20 win over the Broncos.
Nwosu is still recovering from a sprained MCL, an injury that he'd been given a 2-to-6-week recovery timeline for two weeks ago. If he happens to be on the shorter end of that timeframe, he could return as soon as Sunday against the Patriots. Nwosu's practice status throughout the week should offer more clarity on how realistic of a possibility that is.

Seahawks' Uchenna Nwosu: Sustains MCL sprain
Nwosu is expected to miss 2-to-6 weeks after suffering a sprained MCL during Saturday's preseason finale, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Nwosu has been riddled with injuries recently, as the 27-year-old outside linebacker missed the Seahawks' final 11 games last season due to a torn pectoral and will now miss the beginning of Seattle's 2024 campaign. The USC product has been the Seahawks' most productive pass rusher when on the field, recording 9.5 sacks during his last full season in 2022. Expect both Derick Hall and Boye Mafe to see more reps with the Seahawks' first-team defense while Nwosu recovers from his sprained MCL.

Seahawks' Uchenna Nwosu: Dealing with knee issue
Nwosu exited Saturday night's preseason win over the Browns with a knee injury and will undergo further testing, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
"Not sure yet," coach Mike Macdonald said. "We'll probably know more in the next couple days." Following a career-best 9.5 sacks in 2022, Nwosu suffered a torn pec in Week 7 last season and missed the remainder of the year, finishing with just 2.0 sacks across six contests. Losing Nwosu for any length of time would be an issue for Seattle's pass rush.

Seahawks' Uchenna Nwosu: Taking part in OTAs
Nwosu (pectoral) participated in OTAs Wednesday, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
Nwosu suffered a torn pec in Week 7 and missed the remainder of the season. He's already stated he expects to be a full participant for the start of training camp, and the veteran appears to be on track in his recovery. Nwosu tallied a career-best 9.5 sacks in 2022 and inked a three-year, $45 million extension last summer. He'll be counted on to help key Seattle's pass rush in his third season with the team in 2024.

Seahawks' Uchenna Nwosu: Expects to be ready for camp
Nwosu (pectoral) indicated Wednesday that he "absolutely" expects to be ready for the start of training camp, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.
Nwosu is coming off a season-ending torn pectoral that he suffered this past October, but the edge rusher appears to be progressing well -- barring any setbacks, the 27-year-old is poised to reclaim his key role in the Seahawks defense this coming season. Prior to his injury, Nwosu -- who racked up a career high 9.5 sacks in 2022 -- recorded 16 tackles and 2.0 sacks in six regular-season games last year.

Seahawks' Uchenna Nwosu: On track for Week 1
Nwosu (pectoral) is expected to be ready for the start of the regular season, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Nwosu missed all but the first six games of the 2023 campaign due to a torn pectoral, and while it's unclear whether he'll be ready for the start of training camp, there seem to be no concerns about his Week 1 availability. When healthy, Nwosu's presence should provide Seattle's pass rush with a boost it sorely missed last year, as the 27-year-old recorded 9.5 sacks over 17 games in 2022.
