Seahawks Face Key Injuries Ahead Preseason Opener

News summary

The Seattle Seahawks enter the 2024 preseason with optimism about their potential under head coach Mike Macdonald, who former star Shaun Alexander praises as the right leader for the team's future. Alexander highlights offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak's impact and the addition of quarterback Sam Darnold as key factors for improvement over last year's 10-win season. However, the team faces several injury concerns ahead of their preseason opener against the Las Vegas Raiders, including running back Kenneth Walker III returning from a sore foot and linebacker Tyrice Knight dealing with a knee injury that has yet to be fully diagnosed. Knight's injury is particularly concerning due to the team's thin depth chart at linebacker, with backup options relatively unproven. Other players such as cornerback Shaquill Griffin, center Olu Oluwatimi, and long snapper Chris Stoll are also dealing with various injuries, most described as day-to-day. Coach Macdonald emphasized a cautious approach to player returns, with several players undergoing testing and gradual reintegration into practice to ensure readiness.
