The Seattle Seahawks won’t have their promising rookie vast receiver for a minimum of the subsequent 4 weeks.
Fifth-round decide Tory Horton, who’s tied with Jaxon Smith-Njigba for the crew lead in receiving touchdowns, has been positioned on injured reserve as of Saturday. Seattle didn’t signal anybody to switch him on the 53-man roster, though it’s in all probability not pressing to take action till after Sunday’s sport towards the Tennessee Titans.
Horton scored two touchdowns in Seattle’s 38-14 blowout win over the Washington Commanders again in Week 9, however suffered a shin damage that solely grew to become recognized throughout Week 10’s follow for the Arizona Cardinals. After a number of consecutive days with out working towards, it grew to become clear that Horton wasn’t notably near a return. Mike Macdonald instructed reporters on Friday that Horton’s shin wanted to “settle down.” Nicely, there will probably be loads of time to settle down.
It’s value noting that Horton gained’t be eligible to return till Week 16 towards the Los Angeles Rams, however that’s a Thursday evening sport and Horton can not follow till after Week 15 versus the Indianapolis Colts. These practices sometimes are walkthrough classes. It appears greater than seemingly he’ll not return in Week 17 on the Carolina Panthers, if in any respect this common season.
In different information, Seattle by the way elevated Patrick O’Connell and Jamie Sheriff to the lively roster from the follow squad, which can be an indicator that Ernest Jones IV is probably not obtainable for the Titans sport. Jones is questionable with a knee damage and didn’t follow on Friday.
