Nwosu has since agreed to a restructured contract to stay with the Seahawks after appearing in just six games during the 2024 campaign. Since turning in a career-high 9.5 sacks in 2022, Nwosu has played in just 12 regular-season games over the last two campaigns.

Nwosu recorded 14 tackles (eight solo), including 1.0 sacks, and a pass defensed in six games last season.

Estimated as limited Monday Nwosu (wrist) was a limited participant on Monday's practice estimate, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.

Impact The Seahawks played the Vikings on Sunday, so the team didn't actually hold a practice a day later. Nonetheless, the veteran linebacker popped up on the injury report with a wrist injury, which puts him at risk of missing this Thursday's outing against the Bears.

Activated from IR The Seahawks activated Nwosu (thigh) off injured reserve Thursday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.

Impact Nwosu missed the first four games of the regular season due to a knee injury he suffered in the Seahawks' preseason finale. He returned for Week 5 against the Giants, but his return was short-lived as he suffered a thigh injury that was serious enough to warrant a stint on IR. Nwosu has been able to log full practices as of late, and now that he's off IR, he's on track to play against the Cardinals on Sunday. Nwosu's last full season was in 2022, when he logged 67 tackles (42 solo), including 9.5 sacks, four pass defenses, three forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries across 17 regular-season games.
