Kenneth Walker III Out for Seahawks vs. Cardinals

The Seattle Seahawks will be without their leading running back, Kenneth Walker III, for their crucial NFC West matchup against the Arizona Cardinals due to calf and ankle injuries. Walker, who has contributed 542 rushing yards and seven touchdowns this season, was downgraded to out after not practicing on both Thursday and Friday. Zach Charbonnet will start in his place, having previously filled in effectively during Weeks 2 and 3, while rookie George Holani has been elevated from the practice squad. Additionally, cornerback Tre Brown is inactive due to a hamstring injury, which allows rookie Nehemiah Pritchett to suit up as backup. The Seahawks, sitting atop the division at 7-5, face the 6-6 Cardinals, making this game pivotal for their playoff positioning. On the opposing side, the Cardinals have also listed key players as inactive, including outside linebacker BJ Ojulari and Dennis Gardeck, who are both out for the season due to injuries.
