Seahawks Put Starting Center Jalen Sundell on IR, Turn to Olu Oluwatimi vs. Rams

Christian Haynes returns from injured reserve to reinforce depth for a trip to Los Angeles with the NFC West lead at stake.

Overview

  • Sundell injured his knee in Week 10 and must miss at least four games under NFL IR rules, making him eligible to return in Week 15 against the Colts.
  • Olu Oluwatimi takes over at center after finishing the Cardinals game and is slated to start through the upcoming Rams, Titans, Vikings and Falcons stretch.
  • Head coach Mike Macdonald indicated the team does not believe Sundell’s injury is season-ending, with imaging and treatment decisions still in play.
  • Guard Christian Haynes was activated to the 53-man roster after a preseason pectoral injury, providing interior depth at center and right guard.
  • Rookie wide receiver Tory Horton was ruled out for a second straight week with groin and shin injuries ahead of the matchup in Los Angeles.
