Witherspoon (knee) does not carry an injury designation into Thursday's game against the Cardinals, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Witherspoon missed Seattle's last two games due to an MCL injury. The 2023 first-rounder logged a full practice Wednesday and has been cleared to play in Thursday's NFC West clash, when he'll play a prominent role in the Seahawks' secondary alongside Josh Jobe, Riq Woolen, Coby Bryant and Julian Love (hamstring).

Witherspoon (knee) was tabbed as a limited participant in Tuesday's practice walkthrough, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Witherspoon has been deemed limited at both of Seattle's practice walkthroughs to begin the short week. The third-year cornerback has missed each of the Seahawks' past two games after suffering an MCL contusion in a Week 1 loss to San Francisco. Derion Kendrick has stepped into a starting role and has notched two interceptions while Witherspoon has been out.

Witherspoon (knee) was listed as a limited practice participant on Monday's estimated practice report, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Witherspoon has missed the Seahawks' last two games due to an MCL injury that he suffered against the 49ers in Week 1. He'll have two more practices this week to increase his participation and give himself a chance to return against the Cardinals on Thursday.

Witherspoon (knee) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Saints.
EDGE Analysis
Witherspoon will miss a second straight game due to a knee injury that he suffered against the 49ers in Week 1. He did log a limited practice Friday, which is a positive sign that he could return for Week 4 against the Cardinals on Thursday. Derion Kendrick will continue to see an increased workload on defense in Witherspoon's absence.

Witherspoon (knee) is doubtful for Sunday's game against the Saints, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Witherspoon is still working his way back from an MCL injury suffered in Week 1. He'll miss his second straight contest. Derion Kendrick will likely again see elevated snaps against New Orleans.

Witherspoon (knee) did not participate at practice Wednesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Per Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic, coach Mike Macdonald expressed some optimism Monday that Witherspoon may be able to return from an MCL contusion in Week 3, but he still wasn't in football shape as of Wednesday. Unless he can return to practice Thursday or Friday, it's unlikely he'll be able to suit up Sunday versus the Saints.

Witherspoon is dealing with an MCL contusion to his knee, and head coach Mike Macdonald said Monday that it's "possible" that the 2023 first-rounder could return for the Seahawks' Week 3 clash against the Saints on Sunday, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Witherspoon suffered the injury during the Seahawks' Week 1 loss to the 49ers, and his practice participation over the coming week will help determine his availability for Week 3. Derion Kendrick ended up seeing a significant increase in defensive snaps during the Seahawks' 31-17 win over the Steelers on Sunday, and he took advantage of the opportunity with a solo tackle and two pass defenses (including an interception). Kendrick will continue to see a bigger role in the Seahawks' offense for as long as Witherspoon is sidelined.

Witherspoon (knee) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Steelers, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Witherspoon had a slim chance at playing Sunday after being tagged as doubtful due to a knee injury he picked up in the Seahawks' Week 1 loss to the 49ers. The injury prevented him from practicing all week, and the 2023 first-rounder's next opportunity to play will be Week 3 against the Saints on Sunday, Sept. 21. Per Henderson, Shaquill Griffin is the top candidate to start at outside corner opposite Riq Woolen due to Witherspoon's injury.

Witherspoon (knee) is doubtful for Sunday's game against the Steelers, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Witherspoon played all 76 defensive snaps last Sunday against San Francisco despite suffering the knee injury in that contest. Derion Kendrick, Shaquill Griffin and Nehemiah Pritchett will be in for elevated roles at cornerback Sunday behind Riq Woolen and Josh Jobe if Witherspoon is deemed inactive.
