The Seattle Seahawks are less than two hours away from kicking off against the Chicago Bears on Thursday Night Football. The inactives list for both teams have dropped, and as expected running back Kenneth Walker III will not be competing Walker was added to the injured reserve list on Thursday. Unless the Seahawks somehow find their way to the NFC Championship game, Walker’s 2024 campaign is concluded.
Joining Walker on the sideline will be a few others, such as tight end Brady Russell who has missed several weeks due to his injury. While he is inactive, quarterback Jaren Hall will be listed as an emergency third-string quarterback. Given Geno Smith’s knee injury, having a little extra insurance at the most important position in all of sports isn’t a bad idea.
On the other side of the ball, 12’s should recognize another familiar name. Running back Travis Homer for the Bears is inactive. Homer was originally drafted by the Seahawks in the 6th round of the 2019 NFL draft, and Seattle is where he spent the first four years of his career. After his rookie contract expired, Homer signed a two-year deal with Chicago in 2023.
