The Seahawks released their second injury report of the week on Thursday. Check out the details.
The Seattle Seahawks, who face the Arizona Cardinals at State Farm Stadium on Sunday, released their second injury report of the week on Thursday. They had a couple of changes.
One player was added, three were downgraded from what they dod on Wednesday and two were upgraded.
The details of their Thursday injury report are below.
Take a look at the Cardinals’ Thursday injury report in Week 18.
The Arizona Cardinals began the week of practice on Wednesday in Week 18 with a pair of rookie defensive starters out. That was the case again on Thursday as the team prepares for the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday.
However, one of their starting offensive linemen got sick and was added to their injury report.
They released their second injury report of the final week of the season with four players sitting out and six limited.
The details are below.
The Seahawks must beat the Cardinals and have the Packers lose to the Bears to make the playoffs.
The Arizona Cardinals will not be playing in the postseason. They were eliminated from postseason contention weeks ago and currently are 4-12 with one game to go.
Their Week 18 opponent, the Seattle Seahawks, are battling for a playoff spot as a wild card. That is possible this weekend.
The Cardinals can play spoilers.
The Seahawks, sitting at 8-8 and eighth in the NFC, need to beat the Cardinals and have the Chicago Bears beat the Green Bay Packers. Both teams would be 9-8 and the Seahawks would have a better conference record, giving them the seventh seed over the Packers.
The Packers and Bears play at the same time as the Cardinals and Seahawks.
The Cardinals, who beat the Philadelphia Eagles last week 35-31, could end the Seahawks’ season.
Seattle has lost five of its last seven games.

The Cardinals have lost four straight games to the Seahawks.
The Arizona Cardinals close out their 2023 season with a home game against the NFC West rival Seattle Seahawks. Seattle won the first matchup this season in Seattle 20-10 in Week 7.
The Cardinals would like to end their current losing streak against them.
They have lost four straight contests to Seattle, even while the all-time series has been pretty close.
The Seahawks lead the all-time series 26-22-1, so before the Cardinals’ four consecutive losses to Seattle, it was tied.
Since the two teams joined the NFC West in 2002, they have split their season series 12 times and in four of the last five seasons.
In their last matchup, they played the Seahawks without Kyler Murray, James Conner or Jalen Thompson.
Murray is 2-5 in seven games against the Seahawks. He would like to see that change this week.

Check out the Seahawks’ first injury report of the week.
The Arizona Cardinals’ final opponent of the season, the Seattle Seahawks, opened their week of practice on Wednesday and released their first injury report of the season.
They had seven players sit out with injuries and another two who were limited.
Check out the details of Wednesday’s injury report below.
Check out the Cardinals’ first injury report of the final week of the season.
The Arizona Cardinals kicked off their final week of practice for the season on Wednesday to get ready to take on the Seattle Seahawks in the season finale. They released their first injury report of the week and it included a couple of rookie defensive starters.
Four players sat out on Wednesday and another four were limited.
The details are below.
The Cardinals’ final game of the season will kick off Sunday at a normal time for them.
The NFL announced the full Week 18 schedule and the Arizona Cardinals will play their final game of the season in a normal time slot.
They will host the Seattle Seahawks Sunday afternoon at State Farm Stadium at 4:25 p.m. ET, which is at 2:25 p.m. Arizona time.
There is nothing special at that time. It is the time the Cardinals would normally play any home game.
The NFL always makes the final week’s schedule of the regular season to be determined so that it can manipulate the times and teams so that division titles, playoff seeding and playoff berths are not decided before the teams involved kick off their games.
It doesn’t matter for the Cardinals, who have been eliminated from postseason contention, but it does matter for the Seahawks.
Seattle needs to beat the Cardinals and for the Green Bay Packers to lose their Week 18 game against the Chicago Bears to make the playoffs. The Green Bay-Chicago game also kicks off at 4:25 p.m. ET.
The Cardinals can play spoiler for a division rival in the finale.
