Mychal Kendricks – Important – Injury – Transaction
LB Mychal Kendricks (broken tibia) was placed on reserve/injured by the Seahawks Wednesday (Dec. 12). He will miss the remainder of the 2018 season.
Simeon Thomas – Noteworthy – Transaction
CB Simeon Thomas was signed by the Seahawks to the practice squad Wednesday (Dec. 12). He had been released by the Seahawks from the practice squad Dec. 5.
George Fant – Noteworthy
LT George Fant, a former college basketball standout at Western Kentucky, added a new wrinkle to the Seahawks aerial attack by catching his first career pass as an eligible receiver against Minnesota. He stumbled before he could get to the first-down marker, but it wouldn’t be a surprise to see him targeted again before the season wraps up.
Jacob Martin – Noteworthy
DE Jacob Martin, seldom-used early in the season, has found his niche as a situational edge rusher for Seattle. In 12 snaps against the Vikings, he recorded two quarterback hits and a forced a key fumble on a sack against Kirk Cousins that cornerback Justin Coleman returned for a touchdown.
Jordan Simmons – Noteworthy
RG Jordan Simmons will likely earn his third start for the Seahawks because D.J. Fluker is still working his way back from a hamstring injury. Simmons impressed in his first two outings, holding his own against the likes of Rams defensive tackle Aaron Donald and Vikings defensive tackle Sheldon Richardson.
Rashaad Penny – Important – Injury
RB Rashaad Penny missed Wednesday’s practice with a new knee injury, though head coach Pete Carroll doesn’t sound overly concerned about his status for Sunday. If he somehow can’t play, Mike Davis will see an increased workload behind starter Chris Carson.
