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.
Impact 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 weeks 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.

Placed on IR Nwosu (thigh) was placed on Seattle's injured reserve list Friday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.
Impact Nwosu will now be out for at least four weeks as he nurses a thigh injury that was suffered during last Sunday's game against the Giants. As a result, linebacker Trevis Gipson should see some elevated opportunities as Seattle takes on the Rams this week.

Expects to go to IR Nwosu is expected to be placed on Seattle's injured reserve list as he nurses a thigh injury, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
Impact The thigh issue Nwosu picked up during Sunday's game versus the Giants is evidently severe enough that it will probably keep him out for at least four weeks. In his stead, Trevis Gipson would be in line for an uptick in reps on the edge.

Impact Nwosu made his 2024 debut in Sunday's loss, playing just 20 defensive snaps before sustaining a new injury that's expected to hold him out of the Seahawks' Week 6 contest. The USC product was able to record three total tackles in his limited time on the field, and both Dre'Mont Jones and Derick Hall (foot) could see increased snaps with Seattle's first-team defense in Nwosu's stead.

Leaves game early Nwosu (thigh) has exited Sunday's game against the Giants.

Past knee injury Nwosu (knee) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Giants, Corbin K. Smith of SI.com reports.
Impact Nwosu appears to be past his knee injury after logging back-to-back limited practice sessions Wednesday and Thursday. However, head coach Mike Macdonald told reporters Friday that Nwosu may not make his debut in Week 5, despite not having an injury designation, per Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune. If Nwosu doesn't suit up Sunday, expect Derick Hall to serve as Seattle's top weakside linebacker.

Limited at walkthrough Nwosu (knee) was estimated to be a limited participant at the Seahawks' walkthrough Wednesday, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Impact Nwosu has been sidelined for the first four games of the season with an MCL sprain that he suffered in late August and he'll look to officially participate at practice Thursday. If he's forced to miss the team's Week 5 matchup with the Giants, Derick Hall and Tyrice Knight would be candidates to see extra snaps at linebacker.

Won't play Week 4 Nwosu (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Monday's game against Detroit, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.
Impact Nwosu has missed the first four games of the regular season due to an MCL sprain he suffered in late August. With Boye Mafe (knee) also ruled out for Monday's game, Derick Hall and Dre'Mont Jones will both see more snaps with the first-team defense.

Doesn't practice Thursday Nsowsu (knee) was listed as a DNP on the Seahawks' injury report Thursday, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.
Impact Nwosu has yet to appear in a regular-season game due to a left MCL sprain he sustained in Seattle's preseason finale. He's at risk of missing a fourth consecutive game unless he's able to see the practice field in at least a limited capacity this week. Derick Hall (hip) has started at linebacker in Nwosu's absence, and the former has accrued nine tackles (five solo), including 3.0 sacks, over the first three games of the regular season.

Still out Week 3 Nwosu (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup with Miami, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Impact Nwosu suffered a left MCL sprain in Seattle's preseason finale and hasn't yet been able to suit up in the regular season. He didn't practice in any capacity this week, so it's not surprising that he's been deemed out for Sunday. Derick Hall has been seeing increased work in Nwosu's stead, but Hall is questionable to play Week 3 due to a hip injury.

Remains absent from practice Nwosu (knee) did not participate at Seattle's practice Wednesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Impact Nwosu has been forced to miss the team's first two games of the season while he continues to recover from an MCL sprain he suffered in the preseason. He'll look to return to practice in some capacity prior to the end of the week.

Impact Nwosu is still recovering from a sprained MCL suffered in the Seahawks' final preseason game against the Browns. He was originally given a 2-to-6-week recovery timeline, which is just over two weeks old. Assuming he doesn't play Sunday, the USC product's next opportunity will be Week 3 against the Dolphins.

Didn't play Sunday Nwosu (knee) was inactive for Sunday's 26-20 win over the Broncos.
Impact Nwosu is still recovering from a sprained MCL, an injury that he'd been given a 2-to-6-week recovery timeline for two weeks ago. If he happens to be on the shorter end of that timeframe, he could return as soon as Sunday against the Patriots. Nwosu's practice status throughout the week should offer more clarity on how realistic of a possibility that is.

Hiring coach, adding players left Seahawks GM John Schneider feeling like the offseason blitzed by

Sustains MCL sprain Nwosu is expected to miss two-to-six weeks after suffering a sprained MCL during Saturday's preseason finale, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Impact Nwosu has been riddled with injuries recently, as the 27-year-old outside linebacker missed the Seahawks' final 11 games last season due to a torn pectoral and will now miss the beginning of Seattle's 2024 campaign. The USC product has been the Seahawks' most productive pass rusher when on the field, recording 9.5 sacks during his last full season in 2022. Expect both Derick Hall and Boye Mafe to see more reps with the Seahawks' first-team defense while Nwosu recovers from his sprained MCL.

Dealing with knee issue Nwosu exited Saturday night's preseason win over the Browns with a knee injury and will undergo further testing, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
Impact "Not sure yet," coach Mike Macdonald said. "We'll probably know more in the next couple days." Following a career-best 9.5 sacks in 2022, Nwosu suffered a torn pec in Week 7 last season and missed the remainder of the year, finishing with just 2.0 sacks across six contests. Losing Nwosu for any length of time would be an issue for Seattle's pass rush.
