The Seahawks went into Sunday’s Raiders Vs Seahawks game with four players ruled out and no one listed as questionable, a clean injury report that left Seattle’s availability picture settled before kickoff. Sam Darnold was out with rib and quadricep injuries, while Charles Cross, Quenton Nelson and Leonard Williams also missed Week 10 for separate ailments.
That mattered because the roster picture was already tight heading into Sunday, November 15, and the absences changed who Seattle could actually lean on against the Raiders. Rashid Shaheed returned after missing last week’s game, Uchenna Nwosu was back after sitting out the previous two games as well as last week, and Brandon Pili also returned after missing last week.
The Seahawks’ game-day list also carried one detail that stands out from the rest: Emanuel Wilson was identified as the team’s leading rusher, yet he was among the healthy scratches. At the same time, Trevon Diggs and Bobby Hart were elevated from the practice squad and were active, giving Seattle added depth for the matchup.
There was still one small oddity on the board. The team’s report did not explain why Quenton Nelson appeared among the inactive names, even though the rest of the injury picture was straightforward. In a day when Seattle had no questionable players at all, the only real uncertainty was how much the returning pieces would change the game once the Raiders and Seahawks finally lined up.
