Seahawks Win Over Chiefs Marred by Multiple In-Game Injuries

Limited postgame details from Coach Mike Macdonald leave player availability to be decided by this week’s medical tests.

Overview

  • Seattle beat Kansas City 20-3 on Sunday to snap a losing streak and improve its standing in the NFC West.
  • Wide receiver Rashid Shaheed left at halftime with a knee injury and was ruled out for the remainder of the game, a condition Coach Mike Macdonald confirmed.
  • Left tackle Charles Cross exited in the fourth quarter with an ankle injury and NFL reporting indicated an MRI showed a high-ankle sprain that could cost him multiple games.
  • Running back Velus Jones Jr. left the game with an injury and did not return, creating short-term questions for the Seahawks’ backfield rotation.
  • Backup Drew Lock was inactive while listed as the emergency third quarterback as he manages an elbow issue, and Macdonald said imaging and practice reports this week will determine who is available for Week 8 against the Chicago Bears.
