Seahawks Place Rookie WR Tory Horton on Injured Reserve Ahead of Week 12

The move sidelines a breakout scorer for at least four games after a shin injury kept him out the past two contests.

Overview

  • Seattle finalized the IR move on November 22, which per NFL rules makes Horton ineligible for the next four games.
  • The fifth-round pick has six total touchdowns as a rookie, with five receiving scores on 13 catches and a 95-yard punt return that set a team record.
  • Horton had already been ruled out against the Titans and has missed the previous two games due to the shin issue.
  • The Seahawks elevated linebackers Patrick O’Connell and Jamie Sheriff from the practice squad for Tennessee as injuries have thinned the position, with Ernest Jones IV listed as questionable and Tyrice Knight ruled out.
  • Rashid Shaheed has stepped into the No. 3 receiver role and is handling punt returns in Horton's absence.
