The Seattle Seahawks are preparing to face the Chicago Bears on Thursday Night Football, but injuries have taken a toll on their roster. Top running back Kenneth Walker III is at risk of missing the game with an ankle injury he suffered in last Sunday’s loss to the Minnesota Vikings.
Walker was listed as not practicing on Tuesday due to the injury. Tight end Brady Russell, who has been sidelined for recent weeks with a foot injury, also did not participate in practice. However, other key players were given rest designations, indicating that their injuries are not severe.
Running back Zach Charbonnet was listed as full participant despite dealing with an elbow injury. His presence could be crucial if Walker is unable to play.
The Bears have a more concerning injury report, with five players listed as not practicing and three as limited. The Seahawks will need to be cautious in their preparation for the game, especially with their injured running backs.

+ Did not practice: TE Brady Russell (foot), RB Kenneth Walker III (ankle)
