The Seattle Seahawks’ Wednesday practice report is out for Super Bowl week, and it’s more encouraging than the lengthy list suggests.
None of the 14 players the Seahawks put on their initial injury report was a non-participant. Fullback Robbie Ouzts is still worth monitoring closely given he missed the NFC Championship Game with a neck injury, and has otherwise been limited over te past several practices. Field Gulls attended media availability, for which Ouzts was slated to be a participant at a table alongside fellow fullback Brady Russell, but we only saw Russell the entire time.

Sam Darnold remains limited in the loosest sense as he manages an oblique injury that otherwise has not caused him to miss any game time, and certainly not the Super Bowl. Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Leonard Williams, and DeMarcus Lawrence got to rest a bit and do some light work.
Amari Kight being placed on injured reserve should bode well for the likelihood that Josh Jones will have no issues being available for Super Bowl Sunday. Jones was active for the NFC Championship Game after missing the San Francisco 49ers game due to multiple injuries.
Safety Nick Emmanwori was limited with an ankle issue, although the severity is unknown. Starting left tackle Charles Cross was also limited but otherwise there’s no reason to worry, for he told Field Gulls, “I’m feeling good.”
Here’s the full report for both the Seahawks and New England Patriots, whose injury report was light but did have linebacker Robert Spillane as a non-participant.
The Seahawks are back at practice on Thursday, with game designations set for Friday.
