George Holani George Holani Logs five touches Week 2
Mon, Sep 21, 2026, 10:31 PM
Holani carried four times for 13 yards and caught his only target for two yards Sunday in a 31-7 victory versus the Cardinals.
Analysis: Holani got the third-most offensive snaps (18) among Seattle's running backs, trailing Jadarian Price (24) and Emanuel Wilson (29). Price hurt his shoulder and had to exit the game in the fourth quarter, at which point Wilson took over as the clear lead RB and finished with a strong 21-92-0 rushing line. With that said, if Price is sidelined Week 5 versus Washington, Wilson would likely lead Seattle's backfield, though Holani would stand to see increased opportunities as well. |

Cooper Kupp Cooper Kupp Gains 20 receiving yards Week 2
Mon, Sep 21, 2026, 9:59 PM
Kupp caught both of his targets for 20 yards in Sunday's 31-7 victory versus Arizona.
Analysis: Kupp wasn't very productive, but that was the case for all of Seattle's wideouts aside from Jaxon Smith-Njigba, who dominated with nine catches for 155 yards and one touchdown. The only other Seahawks player to log more than Kupp's two targets was Rashid Shaheed, who put up a 3-35-0 line on six targets. Through two weeks, Kupp has tallied a modest four receptions for 55 yards. With Smith-Njigba dominating the targets in Seattle's passing game, Kupp may struggle to put up consistent production this season. |

Rashid Shaheed Rashid Shaheed Three catches in blowout win
Mon, Sep 21, 2026, 9:47 PM
Shaheed caught three of six targets for 35 yards while also adding a four-yard rush, 29 yards on three punt returns and two kickoff returns for 47 yards during Sunday's 31-7 win over Arizona.
Analysis: Shaheed found himself more involved as a pass-catcher during Week 2, finishing second on the team in both targets and catches behind Jaxon Smith-Njigba both categories. The wide receiver logged 39 snaps on offense, which was nine more than Cooper Kupp (30) in the contest. Shaheed will look to continue to establish himself as the No. 2 option at wide receiver Week 3 versus the Commanders. |

AJ Barner AJ Barner Rushing touchdown in win
Mon, Sep 21, 2026, 9:22 PM
Barner caught his only target for eight yards while also adding a one-yard rushing touchdown during Sunday's 31-7 win over Arizona.
Analysis: Barner was on the field for 56 of the team's 70 total offensive snaps, but he left his mark on the game in the third quarter, punching the ball in from one yard out on a direct snap. The tight end has yet to find his stride as pass-catcher this season, reeling in all three of his targets for 21 yards over the team's first two games. |

Jadarian Price Jadarian Price Dealing with shoulder injury
Mon, Sep 21, 2026, 12:38 PM
Coach Mike Macdonald said Monday that Price suffered a shoulder injury during Sunday's win at Arizona, but "it's intact and nothing serious, it seems like," Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: When Price was accompanied by team trainers to the locker room with his pads off during the fourth quarter Sunday, he was considered questionable to return due to a chest issue. Macdonald told Curtis Crabtree of Fox 13 Seattle afterward that X-rays were returned negative, and additional comments from the head coach one day later indicate the rookie first-round pick may not miss any time. Ultimately, how Price fares in practice Wednesday through Friday will determine his availability for next Sunday's game at Washington. George Holani and Emanuel Wilson are the next players up in the Seahawks backfield. |

Jason Myers Jason Myers Stays perfect in Week 2 win
Mon, Sep 21, 2026, 10:27 AM
Myers converted his lone field-goal attempts and made all four PATs in Sunday's 31-7 win over the Cardinals.
Analysis: Myers' field goal was good from 33 yards in the third quarter. Through two games, he's a perfect 3-for-3 on field goals and has made all five extra-point tries. Following a tumultuous preseason, Myers appears to have put his struggles behind him. He'll be a back-end K1 for next Sunday's road date with the Commanders. |

Emanuel Wilson Emanuel Wilson Notches 21 carries in victory
Sun, Sep 20, 2026, 8:07 PM
Wilson rushed 21 times for 92 yards and failed to catch his only target in Sunday's 31-7 win over Arizona.
Analysis: Wilson stepped into a larger workload Week 2 and it was partially due to rookie running back Jadarian Price exiting the game with a chest injury in the fourth quarter. The 92 rushing yards were Wilson's highest total since he notched 107 yards and two scores on 28 totes in Week 12 of the 2025 campaign while with the Packers. Wilson could handle the lion's share of touches in the backfield against the Commanders in Week 3 if Price is forced to miss the contest. |

Drew Lock Drew Lock Tosses three touchdowns in win
Sun, Sep 20, 2026, 7:59 PM
Lock completed 19 of 26 passes for 235 yards with three touchdowns and no interceptions in Sunday's 31-7 victory over Arizona.
Analysis: Lock didn't make it too hard on himself, looking for superstar wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njiba early and often. The duo connected for an 82-yard score in the first quarter before later adding touchdowns of seven and 12 yards in the second half. Lock has now tossed four touchdowns over the first two weeks, all of which have been to Smith-Njigba. The quarterback has now completed 35 of 48 passes for 422 yards with four scores so far this season, and he could be asked to start another contest Week 3 versus the Commanders while Sam Darnold (hip) continues to recover. |

Sam Darnold Sam Darnold Ahead of schedule in recovery
Sun, Sep 20, 2026, 7:25 PM
Darnold (glute) is ahead of schedule in his recovery and has a chance to practice ahead of Seattle's Week 3 road game against the Commanders, head coach Mike Macdonald said after Sunday's 31-7 victory over the Cardinals, Curtis Crabtree of Fox 13 Seattle reports.
Analysis: Macdonald added that "the timetable has shifted quite drastically" for Darnold's recovery. It sounds like Darnold has a chance to return as soon as next Sunday, though the Seahawks have little reason to rush his return with backup QB Drew Lock having led the team to a 2-0 record. Darnold's first step toward a return would be a return to practice, and his first chance to do so will come Wednesday. |

Jadarian Price Jadarian Price X-rays on chest negative
Sun, Sep 20, 2026, 7:03 PM
Head coach Mike McDaniel said after Sunday's 31-7 win over the Cardinals that X-rays came back negative on Price's chest injury, Curtis Crabtree of Fox 13 Seattle reports.
Analysis: Price didn't check back in after being deemed questionable to return in the fourth quarter, though he managed to rejoin his teammates on the sideline, per Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times. Emanuel Wilson finished the game with a team-high 92 rushing yards on 21 carries, while Price posted 13 carries for 52 yards and caught one of two targets for eight yards prior to exiting. It remains to be seen if Price will have to miss any time or has any limitations Wednesday when the Seahawks resume practicing ahead of a Week 3 road game at Washington. |

Jaxon Smith-Njigba Jaxon Smith-Njigba Trio of scores in dominant performance
Sun, Sep 20, 2026, 6:58 PM
Smith-Njigba caught nine of 11 targets for 155 yards and three touchdowns during Sunday's 31-7 win over the Cardinals.
Analysis: Smith-Njigba started off his day with a bang, connecting with Drew Lock for an 82-yard touchdown on Seattle's opening possession of the game. The wide receiver later added a seven-yard score in the third quarter before notching a third touchdown in the final period, scoring from 12 yards out to cap off his day. Smith-Njigba has now caught 17 of 22 targets for 277 yards and four touchdowns over two contests to open the 2026 campaign, and he'll have a strong chance to continue his hot start Week 3 against Washington's feeble secondary. |

Jadarian Price Jadarian Price Exits game with chest injury
Sun, Sep 20, 2026, 6:01 PM
Price (chest) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Cardinals.
Analysis: Price was accompanied by trainers to the locker room with his shoulder pads off during the fourth quarter of Sunday's game. If the Seahawks hold onto their large lead, it wouldn't be surprising to see Price sidelined for the rest of the game even if he's cleared to return. If that's the case, then the rookie first-rounder would finish with 13 carries for 52 yards and one catch (on two targets) for eight yards. George Holani and Emanuel Wilson will both see an uptick in snaps on offense for as long as Price is out of the game. |

Enters concussion protocol
Sun, Sep 20, 2026, 5:11 PM
Pili (concussion) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Cardinals, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Pili has entered the league's concussion protocol and will miss the rest of Sunday's game. The defensive tackle will need to progress through the five-step protocol and be cleared by an independent neurologist to return to the field. Rylie Mills is now the sole reserve defensive tackle for the Seahawks in Sunday's game. |

Exits with potential concussion
Sun, Sep 20, 2026, 3:56 PM
Pili (head) is being evaluated for a potential concussion after exiting Sunday's game against the Cardinals.
Analysis: Pili exited the first quarter of Sunday's game with a head injury. The defensive tackle will be evaluated by the Seahawks' coaching staff as well as an independent neurologist to determine if Pili has suffered a concussion or if he is safe to return to the game. |

Good to go against Arizona
Sun, Sep 20, 2026, 2:04 PM
Emmanwori (ankle) is active for Sunday's game against the Cardinals.
Analysis: Emmanwori was unable to play against the Patriots in Week 1 due to an ankle injury, but the second-year pro has been given the green light by medical staff to play in Sunday's NFC West tilt. He played a key role in the Seahawks' run to the Super Bowl last year and finished the 2025 regular season with 81 tackles (56 solo), including 2.5 sacks, and 11 pass defenses (including one interception) across 14 games. |

Sam Darnold Sam Darnold Could practice this week
Sun, Sep 20, 2026, 8:30 AM
Darnold (glute), who has been ruled out for Sunday's game in Arizona, is "recovering faster than anyone had anticipated" and has a "pretty good chance" of practicing at some point during Week 3 prep, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Drew Lock will get the starting nod for Seattle in Week 2 while Darnold tends to the right glute injury he sustained in the Sept. 9 season-opening win over the Patriots, but Darnold looks like he'll be back under center for the Seahawks sooner rather than later. Rapoport relays it might be "a little bit of a stretch" for Darnold to play Week 3 against the Commanders, but the 29-year-old's outlook could change depending on how extensively he's able to practice leading up to that contest. At this time, the Seahawks' Week 4 matchup with the Chargers appears to be a likelier target for Darnold's return to the lineup. |

Ruled out for Sunday
Sat, Sep 19, 2026, 4:32 PM
Bradford (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Cardinals, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Bradford was unable to practice on Friday, downgrading his participation level after two limited sessions earlier in the week. The starting right guard will be unable to suit up to defend Drew Lock, leaving Christian Haynes as the most likely option to start Sunday's game. |

Questionable for Sunday's game
Fri, Sep 18, 2026, 8:57 PM
Bradford (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Bradford was limited in the Seahawks' Wednesday and Thursday practice sessions before being unable to participate Friday. The starting right guard's downgrade in participation is an unfortunate marker that he will likely not be able to suit up for Sunday's divisional contest. If Bradford is indeed inactive on game day, Christian Haynes is set to start at right guard. |

Won't play Sunday
Fri, Sep 18, 2026, 7:37 PM
Okada (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Cardinals, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Okada has missed a second straight week of practice and will not suit up for Sunday's divisional contest with the Cardinals. The strong safety remains sidelined due to a hamstring injury and appears no closer to returning to the field. Rodney Thomas will likely be elevated in consecutive weeks to assist the Seahawks' secondary as they continue to deal with the loss of Okada. |

Questionable for Sunday's contest
Fri, Sep 18, 2026, 7:30 PM
Emmanwori (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Emmanwori logged limited practices throughout Week 2. The versatile slot cornerback is not healthy enough to avoid an injury designation heading into the weekend, but there is a good chance the second-year player could suit up for the Seahawks' first divisional opponent. If Emmanwori is still a week away, Nehemiah Pritchett will likely handle the slot cornerback role when the Seahawks play nickel defense. |
