Limited at walkthrough
Nwosu (knee) was estimated to be a limited participant at the Seahawks' walkthrough Wednesday, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Analysis: Nwosu has been sidelined for the first four games of the season with an MCL sprain that he suffered in late August and he'll look to officially participate at practice Thursday. If he's forced to miss the team's Week 5 matchup with the Giants, Derick Hall and Tyrice Knight would be candidates to see extra snaps at linebacker.

Won't play Week 4
Nwosu (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Monday's game against Detroit, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Nwosu has missed the first four games of the regular season due to an MCL sprain he suffered in late August. With Boye Mafe (knee) also ruled out for Monday's game, Derick Hall and Dre'Mont Jones will both see more snaps with the first-team defense.

Doesn't practice Thursday
Nsowsu (knee) was listed as a DNP on the Seahawks' injury report Thursday, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Nwosu has yet to appear in a regular-season game due to a left MCL sprain he sustained in Seattle's preseason finale. He's at risk of missing a fourth consecutive game unless he's able to see the practice field in at least a limited capacity this week. Derick Hall (hip) has started at linebacker in Nwosu's absence, and the former has accrued nine tackles (five solo), including 3.0 sacks, over the first three games of the regular season.

Still out Week 3
Nwosu (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup with Miami, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Analysis: Nwosu suffered a left MCL sprain in Seattle's preseason finale and hasn't yet been able to suit up in the regular season. He didn't practice in any capacity this week, so it's not surprising that he's been deemed out for Sunday. Derick Hall has been seeing increased work in Nwosu's stead, but Hall is questionable to play Week 3 due to a hip injury.

Remains absent from practice
Nwosu (knee) did not participate at Seattle's practice Wednesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Nwosu has been forced to miss the team's first two games of the season while he continues to recover from an MCL sprain he suffered in the preseason. He'll look to return to practice in some capacity prior to the end of the week.

Not expected to play Sunday
Nwosu (knee) won't play Week 2 against the Patriots, Corbin K. Smith reports.
Analysis: Nwosu is still recovering from a sprained MCL suffered in the Seahawks' final preseason game against the Browns. He was originally given a two- to six-week recovery timeline, which is just over two weeks old. Assuming he doesn't play Sunday, the USC product's next opportunity will be Week 3 against the Dolphins.

Didn't play Sunday
Nwosu (knee) was inactive for Sunday's 26-20 win over the Broncos.
Analysis: Nwosu is still recovering from a sprained MCL, an injury that he'd been given a 2-to-6-week recovery timeline for two weeks ago. If he happens to be on the shorter end of that timeframe, he could return as soon as Sunday against the Patriots. Nwosu's practice status throughout the week should offer more clarity on how realistic of a possibility that is.

Sustains MCL sprain
Nwosu is expected to miss 2-to-6 weeks after suffering a sprained MCL during Saturday's preseason finale, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Nwosu has been riddled with injuries recently, as the 27-year-old outside linebacker missed the Seahawks' final 11 games last season due to a torn pectoral and will now miss the beginning of Seattle's 2024 campaign. The USC product has been the Seahawks' most productive pass rusher when on the field, recording 9.5 sacks during his last full season in 2022. Expect both Derick Hall and Boye Mafe to see more reps with the Seahawks' first-team defense while Nwosu recovers from his sprained MCL.

Dealing with knee issue
Nwosu exited Saturday night's preseason win over the Browns with a knee injury and will undergo further testing, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: "Not sure yet," coach Mike Macdonald said. "We'll probably know more in the next couple days." Following a career-best 9.5 sacks in 2022, Nwosu suffered a torn pec in Week 7 last season and missed the remainder of the year, finishing with just 2.0 sacks across six contests. Losing Nwosu for any length of time would be an issue for Seattle's pass rush.

Taking part in OTAs
Nwosu (pectoral) participated in OTAs Wednesday, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Nwosu suffered a torn pec in Week 7 and missed the remainder of the season. He's already stated he expects to be a full participant for the start of training camp, and the veteran appears to be on track in his recovery. Nwosu tallied a career-best 9.5 sacks in 2022 and inked a three-year, $45 million extension last summer. He'll be counted on to help key Seattle's pass rush in his third season with the team in 2024.

Expects to be ready for camp
Nwosu (pectoral) indicated Wednesday that he "absolutely" expects to be ready for the start of training camp, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.
Analysis: Nwosu is coming off a season-ending torn pectoral that he suffered this past October, but the edge rusher appears to be progressing well -- barring any setbacks, the 27-year-old is poised to reclaim his key role in the Seahawks defense this coming season. Prior to his injury, Nwosu -- who racked up a career high 9.5 sacks in 2022 -- recorded 16 tackles and 2.0 sacks in six regular-season games last year.

On track for Week 1
Nwosu (pectoral) is expected to be ready for the start of the regular season, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Analysis: Nwosu missed all but the first six games of the 2023 campaign due to a torn pectoral, and while it's unclear whether he'll be ready for the start of training camp, there seem to be no concerns about his Week 1 availability. When healthy, Nwosu's presence should provide Seattle's pass rush with a boost it sorely missed last year, as the 27-year-old recorded 9.5 sacks over 17 games in 2022.

Heads to IR
Nwosa (pectoral) was placed on injured reserve Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: The 26-year-old edge rusher out of USC suffered a pectoral injury during Seattle's Week 7 win over the Cardinals, and the fact he's set to undergo season-ending surgery led to the IR designation. Nwosu has started all 23 games he's appeared in for the Seahawks over the last two years, recording 82 total tackles, including 16 tackles for loss, with 11.5 sacks part of that latter figure.

Set to undergo surgery
Head coach Pete Carroll announced that Nwosu (pectoral) is officially set to undergo season-ending surgery, Michael-Shawn Duggar of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Nwosu suffered the injury during last week's win against the Cardinals and is now confirmed to be undergoing surgery that will keep out for the remainder of the season. The Seahawks are now expected to sign free agent Frank Clark, who alongside Derick Hall, should fill in at linebacker for Nwosu.

Requires season-ending surgery
Nwosu is expected to undergo season-ending surgery on his injured pectoral, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Nwosu injured his pectoral during Seattle's win against the Cardinals on Sunday and is now expected to miss the remainder of the season. The 2018 second-round pick has logged 16 tackles (12 solo), including two sacks, in six games. Derick Hall should now replace him at linebacker.

Likely to miss Week 8
Coach Pete Carroll said Monday that Nwosu is likely to miss at least one game with a pectoral strain, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: After sustaining a strained pectoral in Sunday's game versus Arizona, Nwosu seems to be trending towards sitting out his first game of the season in Week 8. Seattle's injury reports during the week will give a clearer indication of his availability.

Dealing with pec strain
Nwosu suffered a pectoral strain in Sunday's 20-10 win over the Cardinals, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Analysis: Nwosu exited the victory in the second half and failed to return to the contest. The severity of the linebacker's injury will likely be updated in the coming days.

Questionable to return
Nwosu is considered questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Cardinals due to a pectoral injury.
Analysis: Nwosu tallied two tackles (one solo) and one QB hit before exiting the game. It remains to be seen if he can return. Derick Hall and Darrell Taylor would be candidates to replace him on the edge if he cannot.

Six tackles, two sacks in win
Nwosu recorded six tackles (four solo), including two sacks, while also forcing a fumble in Monday's 24-3 win over the Giants.
Analysis: Nwosu registered a season-high six takedowns while also getting to the quarterback for his first two sacks of the year. Seattle had a field day overall, compiling 11 sacks as a team, and if they can keep getting consistent pressure moving forward, Nwosu will continue to be a beneficiary.

Lands three-year extension
The Seahawks signed Nwosu to a three-year extension Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: The extension keeps Nwosu in Seattle through the 2026 season and is worth up to $59 million with $32 million guaranteed. Signed to a two-year, $19.055 million deal ahead of the 2022 campaign, Nwosu had a career year in Seattle last season, registering 9.5 sacks, 12 TFLs, 26 quarterback hits, three forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries. The 26-year-old will again key Seattle's pass rush off the edge.

Enjoys breakout season in Seattle
Nwosu posted 67 tackles (42 solo), 9.5 sacks, four pass breakups, three forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries across 17 regular-season games in 2022.
Analysis: Nwosu totaled 9.5 sacks over the previous two seasons with the Chargers, but he broke out in Seattle's system while averaging a career-high 51 defensive snaps per game. The 2018 second-round pick just turned 26 years old, so he may not have hit his peak yet. Nwosu has only one year left on his contract in Seattle, so he'll be a candidate for an extension this offseason.

Notches third two-sack game
Nwosu posted four solo tackles, two sacks and a forced fumble in Sunday's 27-23 win over the Rams.
Analysis: Nwosu recorded his third two-sack performance in five weeks, and he has extended his career high to nine sacks in his first season with the Seahawks. His previous career high is five sacks, so this is a significant breakout for his fifth NFL season. At just 25 years old, Nwosu certainly has room to grow, but this has been an excellent season for IDP purposes.

Back-to-back two-sack games
Nwosu recorded four tackles (three solo), including two sacks, during Sunday's 31-21 win over the Cardinals.
Analysis: Sunday's contest versus Arizona accounted for the second consecutive game where Nwosu amassed two sacks, as he did so in Week 8 against the Giants. The 25-year-old is now up to an impressive 40 tackles, seven sacks, three passes defensed, two forced fumbles and one fumble recovery through Seattle's first nine games this season, and he'll look to keep his effective 2022 campaign rolling into Sunday's matchup against the Buccaneers in Germany.

Notches two sacks
Nwosu recorded six tackles (five solo) and two sacks in Sunday's 27-13 win over the Giants.
Analysis: Nwosu has tied his career high through just eight games, as he has posted five sacks thus far. The fifth-year linebacker is proving he's a dependable pass-rushing asset. However, he has averaged 4.5 tackles per game, so he doesn't provide high fantasy value unless he gets to the quarterback.

Logs full practice Thursday
Nwosu (shoulder) was listed as a full participant on the Seahawks' injury report Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Nwosu appeared to suffer a shoulder injury during Sunday's loss to San Francisco. The linebacker logged four tackles and one pass defended while he saw fewer snaps than in Week 1 potentially due to the issue. With Nwosu back at practice fully, it's likely his snap count will see an uptick Sunday against the Falcons.

Picks up injury
Nwosu (shoulder) was listed as a limited participant on the Seahawks' injury report Wednesday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Nwosu is dealing with an unspecified shoulder injury following Sunday's 27-7 loss to the 49ers, in which he tallied four tackles and one pass defended. The 25-year-old did play a smaller percentage of his team's defensive snaps (71 percent) in Week 2 compared to Seattle's season opener (89 percent), though it's unclear if this was due to any physical limitations related to his shoulder. Nwosu signed a two-year, $20 million deal as a free agent with the Seahawks this offseason, and he figures to…read more

Excellent debut
Nwosu recorded seven tackles (three solo), a sack, a pass breakup and a forced fumble in Monday's 17-16 win against the Broncos.
Analysis: Nwosu played 59 of 66 defensive snaps (89 percent). He and Darrell Taylor (54 snaps) are the top edge rushers, but Nwosu had the more impressive stat line as Taylor failed to post a stop. Nwosu should have some IDP appeal moving forward, but it's worth noting his career highs are 40 tackles and five sacks.

Two stops in loss
Nwosu posted two solo tackles -- one for a loss -- in Thursday's 27-11 preseason loss to the Bears.
Analysis: Nwosu arrived in Seattle after posting 9.5 sacks and 13.0 tackles for loss over the last two seasons with the Seahawks. He signed a two-year, $20 million contract, so he should have a secure role on the edge in 2022. The Seahawks have a solid set of edge rushers with Nwosu, Darrell Taylor and rookie second-round pick Boye Mafe, and they'll be key to assisting the team's young secondary.

Lands two-year deal
Nwosu agreed Wednesday with the Seahawks on a two-year, $20 million contract, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Nwosu appeared in all 17 games for the Chargers in 2021, recording 40 tackles (24 solo), five sacks, an interception, two forced fumbles and a fumble recovery. The 25-year-old should have a chance to carve out a significant role in Seattle's defense in 2022.

Caps off excellent season
Nwosu finished his breakout 2021 campaign with 40 tackles (24 solo), five sacks, four passes defended, two forced fumbles and one interception.
Analysis: It took until Year 4 for the 2018 second-round pick to finally emerge as a full-time starter, and while Nwosu didn't put up gaudy numbers opposite Joey Bosa, the USC product was clearly a difference maker defensively. The 25-year-old will become an unrestricted free agent this offseason, but given the obvious favor of head coach Brandon Staley and the Chargers' second-most cap space, expect to see the pass-rushing linebacker get a significant extension at some point this offseason.

Two sacks in win
Nwosu tallied two tackles (two solo) along with two sacks and a forced fumble in the 41-22 win over the Bengals on Sunday.
Analysis: Nwosu recorded two of the Chargers six total sacks, increasing his season sack total to four. In addition, the young linebacker also forced and then recovered a fumble early in the first quarter, setting the tone for the remainder of the game. After recording his second forced fumble of the season, the 24-year-old gets an easier matchup against the Giants next Sunday.

Goes to injured reserve
Nwosu (knee) was placed on injured reserve Saturday, Gilbert Manzano of The Orange County Register reports.
Analysis: The 23-year-old Nwosu suited up 13 times for the Chargers in 2020, establishing new career highs in tackles (33), QB hits (11), sacks (4.5) and pass deflections (two) during his third pro campaign out of USC. He had already been confirmed out for Week 16. Now, Nwosu's season comes to an end given his IR designation, combined with the fact that Los Angeles has been eliminated from playoff contention.

Sidelined for Week 16
Nwosu (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game versus the Broncos.
Analysis: Nwosu was absent from the practice field all week, and he'll miss his second game of the season as a result. Through 13 games, Nwosu has recorded career highs in tackles (33) and sacks (4.5). Isaac Rochell is expected to start at defensive end in Nwosu's place Sunday.

Nwosu (shoulder) is active for Sunday's game against the Patriots.
Analysis: The 23-year-old was expected to be sidelined three weeks after suffering the AC join sprain Nov. 22, but he'll be back on the field after missing only one game. Nwosu has only three tackles while playing a minor defensive role in his previous three games.

Won't play against Bills
Nwosu (shoulder) has been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Bills.
Analysis: Nwosu was considered an IR candidate after being handed a three-week recovery after injuring his AC joint in Week 11. However, he has avoided IR for now and may have a chance to beat the initial timeline as a result. His absence hurts the Chargers' defensive line, though, as Melvin Ingram (knee) was placed on IR on Friday. Isaac Rochell is expected to start opposite Joey Bosa until Nwosu returns.

Should miss three weeks
Nwosu sprained the AC joint in his shoulder during Sunday's win over the Jets and is expected to miss about three weeks, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Analysis: If that timeline is confirmed, the Chargers likely will place Nwosu on injured reserve to clear up a roster spot. The third-year defensive end is dependable depth behind starters Joey Bosa and Melvin Ingram. Isaac Rochell may absorb that role until Nwosu can return.

Ready to rock
Nwosu (undisclosed) was absent from Wednesday's injury report.
Analysis: Nwosu suffered an undisclosed injury during Week 5's loss to the Saints, but it appears the USC product took advantage of the extra week of rest. Nwosu has racked up 15 tackles (nine solo), two sacks and two pass break ups through five games this season, so he'll likely assume his usual starting role at defensive end for Sunday's game against Jacksonville.

Leaves late with injury
Nwosu picked up four tackles (three solo), one sack and two quarterback hits in the 30-27 overtime loss to the Saints. He left early in the fourth quarter with an undisclosed injury and did not return.
Analysis: It's unclear how serious the injury was considering the Saints had just two more offensive possessions the rest of the game, neither of which Nwosu was available to play. The third-year linebacker had been filling in as an edge rusher with Joey Bosa limited throughout Monday and Melvin Ingram (knee) currently on IR. The Chargers have a bye entering Week 6, which might allow for a host of injured players, including Nwosu, to make a return for Week 7.

Disappointing second season
Nwosu piled together 31 tackles (23 solo), two sacks and a forced fumble throughout the 2019 season.
Analysis: The time is ticking on Nwosu becoming a valuable member of a burgeoning Chargers defense. The 2018 second-round pick saw his snap total increase by a marginal amount this year, but a paltry two sacks despite the increase in playing time is a bit of a worry. There isn't a lot that stands in the way of Nwosu once again securing a starting outside linebacker role in 2020, but he'll need to be significantly more productive in order to garner a long-term contract.

Tallies sack in loss
Nwosu notched two tackles (one solo) and one sack during Thursday's 26-24 loss to the Raiders.
Analysis: Nwosu made his second sack of the season during Thursday's divisional loss. He played his usual rotational role (24 percent of snaps on defense) in the Chargers' linebacker corps, taking a back seat to Drue Tranquill, Thomas Davis and Kyzir White. The 22-year-old has a tough matchup against the Chiefs coming up Week 11.
