Overview
- Los Angeles activated edge rusher Nick Hampton from the practice squad on December 18 for the Week 16 game, the team announced.
- The move followed his December 9 waiver and next‑day return to the practice squad that Sean McVay described as a numbers decision.
- The team characterized it as a one‑game elevation, and reporting indicates Hampton will contribute on special teams and rotate at EDGE behind Byron Young and Jared Verse.
- Seattle activated receiver Dareke Young from injured reserve and elevated running back Cam Akers and tackle Amari Kight ahead of kickoff, the club said.
- The Seahawks are without starting left tackle Charles Cross, and the matchup determines first place in the NFC West with Seattle able to clinch a playoff berth and the Rams already qualified.
