The Seattle Seahawks is less than two hours away from starting against the Chicago Bears on Thursday Night Football. The inactive lists for both teams have been reduced and, as expected, running back Kenneth Walker III will not participate Walker was added to the injured reserve list Thursday. Unless the Seahawks somehow find their way to the NFC Championship game, Walker’s 2024 campaign is over.

Joining Walker on the sidelines will be a few others, such as tight end Brady Russell, who has missed several weeks with his injury. While inactive, quarterback Jaren Hall will be listed as an emergency third-string quarterback. Given Geno Smith’s knee injury, it’s not a bad idea to have a little extra insurance at the most important position in all of sports.

On the other side of the ball, 12s should recognize another household name. Running back Travis Homer for the Bears is inactive. Homer was originally drafted by the Seahawks in the 6th round of the 2019 NFL draft, and Seattle is where he spent the first four years of his career. After his rookie contract expired, Homer signed a two-year deal with Chicago in 2023.
