Witherspoon (hip) is questionable to suit up against the Eagles on Monday, Curtis Crabtree of Fox 13 Seattle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Witherspoon was hurt in the first quarter of last week's loss to San Francisco and was unable to return. He didn't practice at all during Week 15 prep, but head coach Pete Carroll indicated Saturday that he is "hoping" the rookie cornerback will be able to play Monday. If Witherspoon can't suit up, Mike Jackson figures to slide into a starting role.

Witherspoon (hip) did not practice Thursday, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Witherspoon hasn't practiced since suffering the injury in Sunday's loss to the 49ers. With the Seahawks not playing until Monday, he'll have the benefit of an extra day to recover, but he'll likely need to get back on the field in some capacity Friday or Saturday to be able to play in Week 15 against the Eagles.

Witherspoon recorded seven tackles (six solo), two sacks and a pick-six during Seattle's 24-3 win against the Giants on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Witherspoon had the best game of his young career, notching both his first ever sack and interception, which he returned 97-yards for a touchdown to help seal the game. The rookie first-round pick will look to build off of this strong performance against the Bengals following Seattle's Week 5 bye.

Witherspoon (hamstring) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Lions, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Witherspoon missed Seattle's season opener, but he put in a full week of practice and is ready to make his NFL debut in Detroit. The 2023 first-round pick should help shore up a secondary that allowed over 100 receiving yards to two different Rams wide receivers in Week 1, even though Los Angeles was playing without Cooper Kupp (hamstring).
