Placed on IR Thorpe (abdomen) was placed on IR on Wednesday, Curtis Crabtree of Sports Radio KJR reports.

Impact Thorpe will miss at least three weeks, so the earliest he could rejoin his teammates on the field will be Week 14 against the Jets. He normally plays a depth role in Seattle's struggling secondary while also contributing on special teams.

Injury Updates On Jamal Adams, Neiko Thorpe, Travis Homer And More Following Sunday’s Loss Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll called Jamal Adams

NOVEMBER 16, 2020 • SEAHAWKS.COM

Aggravates injury Sunday Coach Pete Carroll said that Thorpe re-injured his groin during Sunday's 23-16 loss to the Rams, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.

Impact Thorpe missed the last six games due to a sports hernia injury prior to retaking the field on Sunday, but it looks as though he could now be set for another stint on the sideline. The 30-year-old normally does most of his damage on special teams while also providing depth at cornerback, so it wouldn't be particularly devastating to Seattle's secondary if Thorpe were to miss Thursday's game against Arizona.

Back for Sunday's game The Seahawks activated Thorpe (sports hernia) from injured reserve Saturday.

Impact Thorpe typically sticks to special teams, where he's the Seahawks' captain, but he could immediately be leaned on defensively in Sunday's game against the Rams. Starting cornerbacks Quinton Dunbar (knee) and Shaquill Griffin (hamstring) have been ruled out, and Thorpe is a top candidate to start opposite Tre Flowers. Thorpe hasn't played more than 30 defensive snaps in a season since 2016, however, and he'll have a tough task against Rams receivers Cooper Kupp and Robert Woods.

Returns to practice The Seahawks designated Thorpe (sports hernia) for a return from IR on Wednesday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.

Impact Thorpe has resided on IR since the beginning of October with the sports hernia, so the fact that he's returned to practice is a positive sign for his impending return. The team will now have 21 days to activate Thorpe otherwise he'll land on season-ending IR. Tre Flowers and Linden Stephens are expected to continue to operate as the team's depth cornerbacks in the meantime.

Impact Despite not practicing Thursday or Friday, the door remains open for Thorpe to play Sunday. The 30-year-old cornerback missed Week 3 but could have an increased role if he returns this week, as starting corner Quinton Dunbar (knee) has already been ruled out.
