Woolen (ankle) was a non-participant on Monday's practice estimate.

EDGE Analysis

Woolen was unable to return Sunday against the Giants after injuring his ankle. His status on a short week is certainly up in the air at this point. Dee Williams and Nehemiah Pritchett are candidates to replace his snaps at cornerback if he is ultimately unable to suit up versus the 49ers.

Woolen (ankle) is questionable to return Sunday versus the Giants, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Woolen appears to have picked up an apparent ankle injury in the second half against New York, leaving his status for the rest of the game up in the air. In his absence, Dee Williams and Nehemiah Pritchett are candidates for more substantial roles in Seattle's secondary.

Woolen (hamstring) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup with the Patriots, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Woolen was able to log a full practice Friday after opening Seattle's week of practice with back-to-back limited sessions, so it appears he's moved past his hamstring injury. The third-year corner will look to cause problems for Jacoby Brissett and company in Week 2 after a strong Week 1 outing in which Woolen picked off Bo Nix and defended an additional pass.

Woolen (hamstring) was a limited participant at Seattle's practice Wednesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Woolen was very active in the team's Week 1 win over the Broncos, securing an interception while also recording three total tackles (one solo). The cornerback appears to have left the contest a little worse for wear, picking up a hamstring injury in the process. Woolen will have two more practices to increase his workload before Sunday's game against the Patriots.

Woolen registered three tackles (one solo), two passes defended and one interception in Sunday's 26-20 win over the Broncos.

EDGE Analysis

Woolen picked off Bo Nix in the fourth quarter of Sunday's game on a pass intended for Courtland Sutton. Woolen was one of five Seattle defenders who played all 69 defensive snaps, and the 2022 fifth-round pick played a big role in limiting Nix to just 138 passing yards. Woolen and the Seahawks secondary will face Jacoby Brissett and the Patriots in Week 2.

Woolen has been a star during training camp and joint practices against the Titans, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Woolen has been among the Seahawks' best players during training camp as he casts aside any doubt that he'll start for the team in 2024. The 2022 fifth-round pick features elite athleticism, and it appears his coverage skills may have taken the next step heading into his third season. Through two NFL campaigns, Woolen has produced 27 pass breakups and eight interceptions, including a pick-six.

Woolen posted 53 tackles (42 solo), 11 pass breakups and two interceptions across 16 games during the 2023 season.

EDGE Analysis

After posting 16 pass breakups and six interceptions, including a pick-six, during his rookie season, Woolen took a step back in both categories as a second-year corner. Woolen's tackling was an issue this season that will need to be addressed in 2024 under a new coaching regime, but the UTSA product has flashed enough upside the past two seasons to make him a strong favorite to start next year.

Woolen was benched for Mike Jackson in Thursday's 31-13 loss to the 49ers, but head coach Pete Carroll told reporters Friday that he felt as if Woolen's shoulder was simply not in a position to do what the team needed, Curtis Crabtree of Fox 13 Seattle reports.

EDGE Analysis

Though the 24-year-old is dealing with a shoulder injury, the issue seems to be minor, as Carroll told reporters that he expects Woolen to return to his starting spot in Week 13 against the Cowboys. The second-year cornerback out of UTSA has had issues with tackling throughout the season, as he's had three or less tackles in seven of Seattle's 11 games thus far. Jackson could continue seeing increased work in the Seahawks' secondary if Woolen's shoulder issue continues to impair his ability to help the team's defense.

Woolen recorded two solo tackles, two pass deflection and an interception in Sunday's 24-20 win over the Browns.

EDGE Analysis

Woolen was able to pick off PJ Walker in the second quarter, registering his first interception of the season. His two pass deflections were also a season high and the cornerback is now up to 18 tackles with four pass deflections and the interception over six active games in 2023.

Woolen (chest) was a full participant in Seattle's practice Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

The cornerback injured his chest in Week 2 and then missed Week 3. The second-year pro made the Pro Bowl as a rookie and has four tackles in two starts this year. Woolen is on track to play Monday against the Giants.
