Seahawks' Uchenna Nwosu: Limited by injuries in 2024
Nwosu finished the 2024 season with 14 total tackles (eight solo), including 1.0 sacks, and a pass defensed across six games.
Nwosu was limited by injuries again in 2024, dealing with a knee issue, a thigh injury and a quadriceps injury throughout the year. His 14 total takedowns this season were a career low, while he went without a forced fumble for the first time since the 2020 campaign. The linebacker has appeared in just 12 games over the last two seasons and he'll enter the final year of his contract with the Seahawks in 2025.

Seahawks' Uchenna Nwosu: Full participant in walkthrough
Nwosu (wrist) was listed as a full participant for Tuesday's walkthrough, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.
Nwosu has opened the week as a limited participant in Monday's walkthrough, but he upgraded to full participant Tuesday as he works through a wrist injury he likely picked up during the Seahawks' Week 16 loss to the Vikings. If Nwosu can log a full practice Wednesday, he would likely avoid an injury designation heading into Thursday's game against the Bears.

Seahawks' Uchenna Nwosu: Estimated as limited Monday
Nwosu (wrist) was a limited participant on Monday's practice estimate, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
The Seahawks played the Vikings on Sunday, so the team didn't actually hold a practice a day later. Nonetheless, the veteran linebacker popped up on the injury report with a wrist injury, which puts him at risk of missing this Thursday's outing against the Bears. Nwosu's participation level in the next two days of actual practice should provide a better indication of his status for the TNF game.

Seahawks' Uchenna Nwosu: Comes back, makes tackle
Nwosu recorded one tackle in Sunday's 30-18 win over the Cardinals, his first action since Week 5.
The linebacker was activated off injured reserve Dec. 5 after missing seven games with a thigh injury. Nwosu also sat the first four games of the year with a knee issue. The seventh-year pro played on 20 snaps Sunday, the same amount that he saw in Week 5 against the Giants.

Seahawks' Uchenna Nwosu: Activated from IR
The Seahawks activated Nwosu (thigh) off injured reserve Thursday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.
Nwosu missed the first four games of the regular season due to a knee injury he suffered in the Seahawks' preseason finale. He returned for Week 5 against the Giants, but his return was short-lived as he suffered a thigh injury that was serious enough to warrant a stint on IR. Nwosu has been able to log full practices as of late, and now that he's off IR, he's on track to play against the Cardinals on Sunday. Nwosu's last full season was in 2022, when he logged 67 tackles (42 solo), including 9.5 sacks, four pass defenses, three forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries across 17 regular-season games.

Seahawks' Uchenna Nwosu: Logs full practice Wednesday
Nwosu (thigh) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Nwosu looked on track to return from injured reserve for this past Sunday's win over the Jets after logging a full practice Friday, but the Seahawks ultimately took a cautious approach with him and didn't activate him from IR. If Nwosu is able to continue to string together full practices this week, he should have a better chance at playing this Sunday at Arizona.

Seahawks' Uchenna Nwosu: Not quite ready
Updating a previous report, Nwosu (quadriceps) will not return in Week 13 against the Jets, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
While Nwosu was a full participant in Friday's practice, he's not ready to return to game action just yet. The veteran does appear to be nearing his first game action since Week 5, and he'll now set his sights on a potential Week 14 return at Arizona.

Seahawks' Uchenna Nwosu: Set to return for Week 13
Nwosu (quadriceps) was a full participant in Friday's practice and does not carry an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Jets, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
Nwosu has been on the Seahawks' injured reserve since straining his quadriceps in Week 5 against the Giants. He was designated to return from IR on Wednesday, and after starting the week with consecutive limited practices, Nwosu finished off strong with a full practice Friday. His lack of an injury designation indicates that the Seahawks will activate Nwosu off IR ahead of Sunday's game.

Seahawks' Uchenna Nwosu: Limited Wednesday
Nwosu (quadriceps) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Nwosu's 21-day practice window to return from injured reserve opened Wednesday, and his limited participation was his first practice since suffering a quadriceps strain in Week 5 against the Giants. Nwosu will likely need to log multiple full practices before being reinstated off IR.

Seahawks' Uchenna Nwosu: Designated to return from IR
The Seahawks designated Nwosu (quadriceps) to return from injured reserve Wednesday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.
Nwosu has been on injured reserve since Oct. 10 after suffering a significant quadriceps strain in Week 5 against the Giants. While he will return to practice this week, head coach Mike Macdonald said Monday that Nwosu is not expected to play this Sunday against the Jets. Nwosu will thus focus on being ready for the Seahawks' Week 14 contest against the Cardinals on Sunday, Dec. 8. Since signing a three-year, $45 million extension with the Seahawks in July of 2023, Nwosu has played in just seven regular-season games due to multiple injuries.

Seahawks' Uchenna Nwosu: Expected to practice this week
Nwosu (quadriceps) is expected to return to practice this week, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
The linebacker has been on injured reserve since suffering the injury in Seattle's Week 5 loss to the Giants. To open Nwosu's 21-day practice window, the Seahawks will need to designate him to return from IR. Even if that happens, Seattle coach Mike Macdonald does not expect him to be ready in time for Sunday's matchup with the Jets, per Curtis Crabtree of Fox 13 Seattle.

Seahawks' Uchenna Nwosu: Dealing with significant injury
Nwosu (thigh) is dealing with a "pretty intense quad strain" according to Seahawks general manager John Schneider, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Nwosu was placed on injured reserve with a thigh injury Thursday, which is now understood to be a quadriceps issue. Schneider added that the linebacker is "going to miss some time here," so it's unclear if the minimum four games on IR will be enough. In the meantime, Trevis Gipson will likely see an increase in workload while Nwosu is unavailable, beginning on Thursday Night Football against the 49ers.

Seahawks' Uchenna Nwosu: Placed on IR
Nwosu (thigh) was placed on injured reserve Thursday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.
Nwosu will now be sidelined for at least the next four games as he nurses a thigh injury that was suffered during Sunday's Week 5 loss to the Giants. As a result, Trevis Gipson should see a bump in opportunity beginning with Thursday night's game against the 49ers.
