Seahawks injury updates: Who’s sitting out for first preseason game?

The Seahawks are facing the Vikings this evening in their first preseason game of the 2023 campaign. Unlike during the regular season, teams are not required to share injury reports throughout the week during the preseason. So, we don’t have any official word on who’s playing and who’s not in tonight’s game against Minnesota.

However, we do have the word of head coach Pete Carroll, who updated the media on several injured players during yesterday’s session. Here’s who fans should not expect to see on the field tonight and what they’re dealing with.
