Seattle Seahawks are anticipated to be without running back Kenneth Walker for the second week in a row as he battles an oblique injury. The Seahawks have marked Walker as doubtful for their next game after he missed practice both Wednesday and Thursday. Walker sustained the injury during the team's Week 1 victory against the Broncos, where he showcased an impressive performance, rushing 20 times for 103 yards and securing a touchdown.

In addition to Walker, linebacker Uchenna Nwosu will also be absent due to a knee issue. Nwosu has been officially ruled out and has not participated in team practices. Linebacker Jerome Baker and offensive tackle George Fant are facing doubts for Sunday's game, with both players listed as doubtful. Safety K'Von Wallace, tight end Pharaoh Brown, linebacker Boye Mafe, and receiver Laviska Shenault are all marked as questionable as they battle various injuries.

The absence of key players like Walker and Nwosu could pose challenges for the Seahawks as they prepare for their upcoming matchup, testing the depth and adaptability of the team. With uncertainties lingering around the availability of several other players due to injury concerns, the Seahawks will need to rely on their remaining roster to step up and deliver strong performances on the field. The coaching staff will likely implement strategic adjustments to compensate for the missing pieces and ensure a competitive showing in the upcoming game.
