Woolen agreed to terms Tuesday on a one-year, $15 million contract with the Eagles, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Woolen entered the league as a fifth-round pick in 2022 and started 46 of 48 games through his first three seasons, registering 41 pass breakups and 11 interceptions in that stretch. Although he started just seven games in 2025, Woolen still averaged 51.0 defensive snaps per game and recorded 41 tackles (33 solo), 12 pass breakups and an interception. Woolen is an unmatched athlete who has shown some flaws as a tackler, but he should be a sturdy addition to the Eagles' secondary nonetheless.

Woolen (oblique) does not carry an injury designation into Saturday's NFC divisional-round game against the 49ers, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Woolen was limited in the first two practices of the week due to an oblique issue, but he faded an injury designation for Saturday's game after logging a full practice Thursday. The fourth-year pro ended the 2025 regular season with 41 tackles (33 solo) and 12 pass defenses (one interception) across 16 games.

Woolen (oblique) was a limited participant in Tuesday's practice, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Seahawks were on a bye for the NFC wild-card round, so Woolen may have picked up the injury against the 49ers in Week 18, when he logged two tackles (one solo) and one pass defense. The fourth-year pro will have two more opportunities to increase his practice participation ahead of Saturday's divisional-round clash against San Francisco.

Woolen (knee) was not listed on Wednesday's practice report, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Woolen injured his knee during the Seahawks' Week 16 overtime win over the Rams. He received an MRI on the knee Friday, but his absence from Wednesday's injury report indicates that he was a full practice participant and on track to play against the Panthers on Sunday. Woolen has accumulated 18 tackles (13 solo) and eight pass defenses (one interception) across the eight games since Seattle's Week 8 bye.

Woolen (knee) and safety Coby Bryant (knee) are getting MRIs on Friday, Curtis Crabtree of Fox 13 Seattle reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Seahawks won Thursday's matchup against the Rams but lost two starting defensive backs along the way. Seahawks coach Mike Macdonald didn't have an update Friday morning apart from saying that Woolen, Bryant and unnamed others are scheduled for MRIs.

Woolen is questionable to return to Thursday's Week 16 matchup against the Rams due to a knee issue.
EDGE Analysis
Woolen is one of three Seattle defensive backs who have exited the contest -- Nick Emmanwori is being evaluated for a concussion, and Coby Bryant has been ruled out due to a knee injury. Josh Jobe, Nehemiah Pritchett and Ty Okada are consequently all in the game, which has gone to overtime.

Woolen recorded two solo tackles and an interception in Sunday's 26-0 win over the Vikings.
EDGE Analysis
Woolen hasn't posted more than three tackles in a game since Week 3, and this was his first interception of the season. His snap counts have been slipping lately, too, as he has played less than 75 percent of the defensive snaps in each of the last three games. The fourth-year cornerback will be difficult to trust in fantasy moving forward.

Woolen (concussion) does not carry an injury designation into Monday's game against the Texans, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Woolen registered an FP-LP-FP practice log this past week, and his lack of an injury tag indicates that he has cleared the league's five-step concussion protocol heading into Monday's game. His return will mean less snaps in the secondary for Nehemiah Pritchett and Derion Kendrick.

Woolen (concussion) was a limited participant at practice Friday, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Woolen was a full participant at practice Thursday, so it's not a great sign that he only managed a limited session Friday. Unless he's able to get back to practicing in full Saturday, he'll likely be given an injury designation for Monday's game versus the Texans. Then, even if he does take that step forward, he'll still need to clear the league's concussion protocol before getting the green light to play.

Woolen (concussion) was a full participant in practice Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
The cornerback missed Seattle's Week 6 win over Jacksonville after suffering the concussion during the team's Week 5 loss to Tampa Bay. While Woolen appears on track to play this week, he'll still need to clear the league's concussion protocol before Monday's matchup with the Texans. The fourth-year pro played on more than 90 percent of the defensive snaps in each of Seattle's first four games of 2025.
