Overview
- Tuesday’s walkthrough report listed Christian McCaffrey (back stiffness), Trent Williams (hamstring) and Kyle Juszczyk (hip) as non-participants, with George Kittle limited after missing Week 17.
- Kyle Shanahan described McCaffrey’s issue as stiffness, and McCaffrey called it “not serious,” indicating expectations he will be available Saturday.
- John Lynch said he expects McCaffrey to be ready and would be very surprised if Kittle did not play, while calling Williams’ quick turnaround a tall task with his status undecided.
- Shanahan cautioned against assuming Kittle will play, noting the team was “barely moving” in the short-week walkthrough and will ramp evaluations through Thursday.
- Seattle’s initial report listed starting LT Charles Cross and backup Josh Jones as DNPs, and the Seahawks added rookie Amari Kight for depth ahead of a game that awards the division title and the NFC’s No. 1 seed to the winner.
