Seahawks Await Tests on Ernest Jones IV’s Knee After Win, Coach Says Injury Not Season-Ending

A fuller medical update is expected Wednesday to clarify his timeline.

Overview

  • The linebacker injured his right knee late in the second quarter against Washington and did not return.
  • Head coach Mike Macdonald said Monday there was no update yet, confirmed it is not season-ending, and indicated testing is underway with results expected Wednesday.
  • Seattle beat the Commanders 38-14 to move to 6-2, with Arizona up next on Sunday.
  • Drake Thomas wore the green dot after Jones exited, and Tyrice Knight shifted back to weakside and posted 10 tackles.
  • Depth options include Tyrice Knight, Chazz Surratt and practice-squad linebackers Patrick O’Connell and Pooh Paul Jr., and local reporting suggests the team could explore short-term help before Tuesday’s deadline.
