Seahawks Week 7 Wednesday injury report: Zach Charbonnet on track to play vs. Chiefs

The Seattle Seahawks released their Week 7 injury report on Wednesday, offering a mixed outlook heading into their primetime matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs. The most positive development was that running back Zach Charbonnet is expected to return to action after recovering from a torn ACL sustained during last year's playoff run.

Charbonnet participated fully in Wednesday's practice and could inject much-needed power into the Seahawks' struggling running game, which has been lacking since rookie Jadarian Price was injured in Week 3. However, the report's other offensive players were listed as limited participants, including guard Anthony Bradford, who is recovering from a brief stint on injured reserve.

Rookie guard Beau Stephens was also limited, while quarterback Drew Lock and wide receiver Rashid Shaheed were both limited due to elbow and hip injuries, respectively. On the defensive side, four of Seattle's linebackers were listed as out, with only DeMarcus Lawrence expected to play. Drake Thomas (ankle), Connor O’Toole (hamstring), and Chazz Surratt (calf) did not practice, with Tyrice Knight, the backup, limited due to an oblique injury.

This lack of depth in the secondary could pose a significant challenge for the Seahawks as they prepare to face Chiefs star running back Kenneth Walker III, with whom Walker has a contentious history.
