Chazz Surratt Injury News & Updates
Keep up with the latest injuries from the Seahawks vs Falcons game on Sunday with our National Football League injury report.Nov 26, 2025
Lands on injured reserve
The Seahawks placed Surratt (ankle) on injured reserve Wednesday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Surratt injured his ankle during the Seahawks' opening kickoff against the Titans in Week 12. The injury is severe enough for the fifth-year pro to go on IR, though since he's mostly served on special teams this season, his absence won't impact Seattle's depth at linebacker all too much. Surratt will be required to miss at least the next four games, which makes Week 17 against the Panthers on Saturday, Dec. 27 the earliest he can be activated from IR.

Could be slated for IR stint
Seattle coach Mike Macdonald said Monday that a stint on IR is a possibility for Surratt (ankle), Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Surratt was hurt Sunday against the Titans during a kickoff. Macdonald's comments suggest the injury is more than minor, though the head coach also stated placement on IR for Surratt and other Seahawks players "is really going to be a function of how some of these tests come back and how they progress throughout the rest of the week." Surratt has played almost exclusively on special teams this season, so any time he misses will primarily affect that unit.
Nov 23, 2025
Won't return due to ankle injury
Surratt (ankle) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Titans, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.
ANALYSIS
Surratt sustained the injury during the first quarter on a kickoff, and he will not return to Sunday's game after being evaluated by medical staff. Ernest Jones (knee) and Tyrice Knight (concussion) are inactive for Week 12, so with Surratt done for the day, Patrick O'Connell should see more defensive snaps at inside linebacker alongside starter Drake Thomas.
Aug 28, 2025
Joins Seahawks
Surratt signed with the Seahawks on Thursday.
ANALYSIS
Surratt spent the last three years with the Jets but signed with the 49ers this offseason. He wasn't able to make the final roster in San Francisco, though he'll now land his next opportunity in Seattle. Surratt should contribute primarily on special teams.
Aug 17, 2025
Tallies six tackles Sunday
Surratt (undisclosed) tallied six tackles (six solo) during San Francisco's preseason win over the Raiders on Saturday.
ANALYSIS
Surratt is healthy again after having sat out the team's preseason opener last week with an undisclosed injury. He signed the 49ers in May and is now competing for a spot as a backup linebacker on the team's final roster.
Aug 10, 2025
Sits out preseason opener
Surratt (undisclosed) did not play in Saturday's 30-9 loss to the Broncos, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Surratt is dealing with an undisclosed injury, which forced him to miss the team's preseason opener with Denver. Head coach Kyle Shanahan did not mention Surratt while he was naming players Sunday that "could" return Saturday versus the Raiders, so he may be dealing with more than a minor injury.
Jan 13, 2025
Sees more defensive work in 2024
Surratt recorded 28 total tackles (18 solo) over 17 games in 2024.
ANALYSIS
The 2021 third-round pick from North Carolina played a career-high 127 defensive snaps during the regular season after playing just nine defensive snaps over his first three seasons in the NFL. Surratt logged 15 or more defensive snaps in four games this year, recording 11 total tackles in those contests. He's set to become a restricted free agent this summer, giving the Jets the option to match any contract he receives from other teams. If Surratt remains with the Jets in 2025, he's expected to serve as one of the team's top reserve inside linebackers.
Oct 31, 2024
Will play vs. Houston
Surratt (heel) is active for Thursday night's game against the Texans.
ANALYSIS
Surratt was a limited practice participant Tuesday and Wednesday, and while he is unlikely to be fully healed from his heel injury, he will suit up for Thursday's contest. Surratt could start at middle linebacker due to C.J. Mosley (neck) being inactive.
Oct 30, 2024
Questionable for Thursday night
Surratt (heel) is listed as questionable ahead of Thursday night's matchup against the Texans.
ANALYSIS
Surratt likely sustained a heel injury in the Jets' Week 8 loss to the Patriots, but he was able to practice in a limited fashion both Tuesday and Wednesday. If he's unable to suit up for Thursday night's contest, expect Sam Eguavoen to see additional reps with the Jets' first-team defense.
Oct 29, 2024
Working through heel injury
Surratt (heel) was listed as a limited participant on Tuesday's estimated injury report, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Surratt saw 22 defensive snaps during Sunday's loss to the Patriots after C.J. Mosley suffered a neck injury during pregame warmups, and the former finished with four tackles (three solo). It appears Surratt picked up a heel injury in the process, and Wednesday's injury report will indicate his availability for Thursday's game against the Texans. If healthy, Surratt should get snaps with the first-team defense if Mosley is sidelined for Thursday's contest.
Nov 22, 2023
Not on injury report
Surratt (ankle) was not listed on the Jets' injury report Wednesday, Rich Cimini of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Surratt is now healthy again after missing the past three games due to an ankle injury. The 26-year-old has logged three tackles (two solo) in seven games this season while playing almost exclusively on special teams.
Nov 17, 2023
Won't play Sunday
Surratt (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Bills, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The third-year linebacker out of North Carolina is in line to miss his third consecutive game, as he continues to recover from an ankle issue. Surratt has played almost strictly on special teams for the Jets thus far, tallying three total tackles on the year.
Nov 10, 2023
Won't play at Las Vegas
Surratt (ankle) is listed as out for Sunday's game at the Raiders, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Surratt will miss his second straight game as he deals with an ankle injury. The Jets will again need to try to find a way to replace his production on special teams.
Nov 4, 2023
Won't play Week 9
Surratt (ankle) has been downgraded to out for Monday's game against the Chargers.
ANALYSIS
Surratt was unable to log a practice leading up to Week 9. He's played almost exclusively on special teams and has accrued three tackles across seven games this season.
Sep 7, 2023
Back to playing form
Surratt (hamstring) wasn't listed on the Jets' injury report Thursday ahead of Monday's game versus Buffalo, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Surratt sustained a hamstring injury during the Jets' preseason opener, but it evidently wasn't severe enough to keep him out for Week 1 of the regular season. The 2021 third-rounder has yet to play an NFL snap on defense.
Aug 3, 2023
Hurt after notching interception
Surratt (hamstring) has been ruled out for the remainder of Thursday's preseason opener against the Browns, Eric Allen of the Jets' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Prior to being ruled out in the second half, Surratt made an impact in the first half by intercepting Kellen Mond. Surratt's making a push to secure a prominent role in a linebacker group with limited experience outside of C.J. Mosley and Quincy Williams. His next chance to suit up will come Aug. 12 against the Panthers in the Jets' next preseason game.
Jan 11, 2023
Sticking around the Big Apple
The Jets signed Surratt to a reserve/future contract Wednesday, Ethan Greenberg of the team's official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Despite suiting up for just one game this past season, Surratt is slated to remain with the Jets heading into the 2023-24 campaign. The 2021 third-round draft pick by Minnesota has yet to take a defensive snap as a pro.
Nov 27, 2022
Won't return Sunday
Surratt has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Bears with a hamstring injury.
ANALYSIS
Surratt's afternoon will end premature due to an apparent hamstring injury, and the 25-year-old's next chance to suit up now comes Week 13 in Minnesota.
Sep 14, 2021
Limited to special teams
Surratt did not have a tackle in Sunday's loss at Cincinnati.
ANALYSIS
He played all 13 snaps on special teams, even though Anthony Barr was out with a knee injury. He was back to full speed after suffering a neck injury in the preseason finale against Kansas City.
Sep 9, 2021
Not on injury report
Surratt (neck) isn't on the injury report ahead of Sunday's Week 1 matchup against the Bengals, Craig Peters of the Vikings' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Surratt sustained a neck injury in the preseason finale against Kansas City, but he doesn't have any limitations ahead of the season opener. The 24-year-old could see increased work to begin the year if Anthony Barr (knee) is unable to suit up against Cincinnati.
Aug 28, 2021
Exits with neck injury
Surratt left Friday's preseason loss to Kansas City with a neck injury, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.
ANALYSIS
Surratt remained on the sideline after the injury, which suggests it isn't a serious setback. Surratt was competing with Nick Vigil for playing time at weak-side linebacker, but both could be pressed into more action if Anthony Barry isn't ready for Week 1 against the Bengals.
Jun 17, 2021
Out with undisclosed injury
Surratt did not participate in Tuesday's minicamp due to an undisclosed injury, but said he will be healthy for training camp, the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.
ANALYSIS
The Vikings selected Surratt in the third round of the 2021 NFL Draft. With a 4.59 40 and standout quickness, Surratt has three-down potential. He will compete with Nick Vigil for playing time at weak-side linebacker in training camp, but this injury clouds his outlook to win playing time right away.
