Chiefs

Kyle Terada-USA TODAY Sports
Player Injury Participation* Designation
TE Noah Gray Shoulder FP
DT Derick Nnadi Achilles FP
OT Lucas Niang Knee FP
RB Isiah Pacheco Shoulder FP
WR Kadarius Toney Hamstring FP
DB Nazeeh Johnson Hamstring FP
CB L’Jarius Sneed Calf FP
TE Jody Fortson Elbow DNP Out
DT Chris Jones Illness FP
DT Khalen Saunders Illness DNP Doubtful
DE Mike Danna Illness FP Questionable
S Deon Bush Illness FP Questionable

* DNP = Did not participate | LP = Limited participation | FP = Full participation | NIR = Not injury related

  • The illness bug spread throughout the Chiefs’ defensive line and and hit Mike Danna and Khalen Saunders who both might not play Saturday. It looks like the illness bug has moved to the defensive back squad as well as Deon Bush is also questionable with illness.
  • Jody Fortson didn’t practice all week so it’s no surprise that he’ll miss this game with an elbow injury. Fortson has been relatively quiet on offense with no catches since Week 13, though Patrick Mahomes did target him once in Week 15.

Seahawks

Player Injury Participation* Designation
LB Jordyn Brooks Neck FP
WR Marquise Goodwin Wrist FP Questionable
LB Bruce Irvin Knee/Heel FP
OT Abraham Lucas Elbow FP
S Quandre Diggs Shoulder FP
LB Tanner Muse Ankle FP
RB Deejay Dallas Ankle DNP Questionable
LB Darrell Taylor Illness DNP

S Ryan Neal Knee DNP Out
RB Kenneth Walker Ankle DNP Questionable
DE Quinton Jefferson Foot FP
LB Uchenna Nwosu Elbow FP

* DNP = Did not participate | LP = Limited participation | FP = Full participation | NIR = Not injury related

  • The biggest blows to the Seahawks are the designations for Tyler Lockett, Ryan Neal and Al Woods, all starters for Seattle. Lockett is the team’s leading receiver with 964 yards and eight touchdowns.
  • The “questionable” designations for Kenneth Walker and Noah Fant will definitely be worth monitoring. Walker has been one of the league’s best offensive rookies this season with 696 yards and nine touchdowns on the ground, while Fant is the team’s third leading receiver.
