Seahawks Injury Report: Details on RB Walker and a long DNP list

The Seattle Seahawks’ first injury report of the week ahead of a Sunday Night Football meeting with Green Bay is long – especially the “did not practice” list.

Luckily for the Hawks, it’s not as bad that may sound.

Rost: This is the recipe for Seahawks making the playoffs

Of the nine players who did not practice Wednesday, the reason for all but three was non-injured related (NIR).

The Seahawks aren’t completely out of the woods, though. Running back Kenneth Walker III was out Wednesday with the same calf injury that kept him from playing in last Sunday’s win over the Arizona Cardinals.

Walker’s injury is likely the biggest concern, but head coach Mike Macdonald said during a press conference that he does not have a long-term injury and is day-to-day, per ESPN’s Brady Henderson.

Cornerback Tre Brown also didn’t practice due to a hamstring issue that prevented him from playing in Arizona, as well. The third player who sat out due to injury was safety Jerrick Reed II (quadricep).

Punter Michael Dickson continues to be limited in practice with a back injury, though he played against the Cardinals.

In terms of good news, some big names with lingering injuries were all listed as full participants: wide receiver DK Metcalf, tackle Abraham Lucas, and outside linebacker Uchenna Nwosu.

As for the Packers, they had just one player miss practice Wednesday: rookie safety Javon Bullard (ankle).
