Tyrice Knight Injury News & Updates
Keep up with the latest injuries from the Colts vs Seahawks game on Sunday with our National Football League injury report.Nov 28, 2025
Good to go Sunday
Knight (concussion) will play in Seattle's matchup versus Vikings on Sunday, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
ANALYSIS
Knight missed the Week 12 win over the Titans but is set to make his return after clearing the league's concussion protocol. The 24-year-old has recorded 50 tackles (32 solo), including 2.0 sacks, across 10 games and should resume his role as a depth linebacker during Sunday's matchup.
Nov 24, 2025
Set to return to practice Wednesday
Seattle coach Mike Macdonald said Knight (concussion) is on track to return to practice Wednesday, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Knight suffered a concussion Week 11 against the Rams and didn't play this past Sunday versus Tennessee. Macdonald's comments suggest Knight is showing improvement, but he'll need to clear the NFL's concussion protocol before he's able to suit up for game action. Knight's practice participation level this week should provide more insight into his chance of suiting up for Sunday's matchup against Minnesota.
Nov 21, 2025
Not playing vs. Tennessee
Knight (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Titans, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Knight entered the league's concussion protocol during the Seahawks' loss to the Rams in Week 11, which prevented him from practicing during Week 12 prep. Knight will look to progress enough through the league's protocol to be cleared to practice ahead of Seattle's Week 13 clash against Minnesota. With Knight officially out, Chazz Surratt would be in line for a more prominent role at inside linebacker alongside Drake Thomas if Ernest Jones (knee) is also sidelined for Sunday's road game.
Nov 19, 2025
No practice Wednesday
Knight (concussion) did not practice Wednesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Knight suffered a concussion during Sunday's loss to the Rams and is in the league's concussion protocol. It's not a big surprise that he wasn't able to practice Wednesday, and he likely faces an uphill battle to be cleared ahead of the Seahawks' Week 12 matchup against the Titans.
Nov 16, 2025
Enters concussion protocol
Knight (concussion) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Rams.
ANALYSIS
Knight took a hit to the head while covering on a kickoff in the first quarter and will not return after being diagnosed with a concussion. Chazz Surratt and Patrick O'Connell will be the backup inside linebackers for the rest of Sunday's game in Knight's absence.
Nov 16, 2025
Under observation for concussion
Knight is being evaluated for a concussion and is questionable to return to Sunday's Week 11 game against the Rams.
ANALYSIS
Knight was evaluated after making a huge hit during a kick return in the first quarter. His role on defense was likely to lessen this week with Ernest Jones returning from a knee injury.
Nov 10, 2025
Dominant in Week 10 win
Knight tallied eight tackles (six solo), including 2.0 sacks, and forced two fumbles that were both returned for touchdowns Sunday in a 44-22 win against Arizona.
ANALYSIS
Knight made a huge impact early, as he sacked Jacoby Brissett less than six minutes into the game and forced a fumble that was recovered for a touchdown by Demarcus Lawrence. Knight remarkably repeated that effort early in the second quarter, again sacking Brissett and forcing another fumble that Lawrence returned for a second TD. Knight's opportunity came as a result of Ernest Jones missing the contest with a knee injury. Since Jones was hurt in Week 9 against Washington, Knight has tallied 18 tackles (including Sunday's 2.0 sacks) across two games.
Nov 4, 2025
Double-digit tackles in win
Knight recorded 10 tackles (four solo) in the Seahawks' win over the Commanders on Sunday night.
ANALYSIS
With Ernest Jones (knee) going down in the first half against Washington, Knight logged 37 defensive snaps and posted a season-high 10 tackles. The second-year linebacker has now recorded double-digit stops four times across 24 career regular-season contests. If Jones is unable to play Week 10 against the Cardinals, Knight would figure to be in line to start at linebacker.
Sep 9, 2025
Logs seven tackles
Knight recorded seven tackles (four solo) during the Seahawks' loss to San Francisco on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Knight had been dealing with a knee injury recently but nonetheless had a solid outing during the team's regular-season opener. The 2024 fourth-round pick logged 88 tackles (41 solo) in 16 games last season and will look to produce similar numbers during the new campaign.
Sep 3, 2025
Not listed on injury report
Knight (knee) wasn't listed on Seattle's injury report Wednesday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Knight had been sidelined since picking up an injury early last month but is now healthy again. The 2024 fourth-round pick is expected to serve as one of the team's starting inside linebackers alongside Ernest Jones after having racked up 88 tackles (41 solo), with 1.5 sacks, during his rookie campaign last season.
Aug 21, 2025
Should be ready for season opener
Knight (knee) is expected to be ready by Week 1 against the 49ers, head coach Mike Macdonald said Thursday, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Knight's status for the start of the season was previously up in the air as he dealt with a medical issue in addition to a knee injury, but Macdonald's latest update struck an optimistic tone. The starting linebacker won't play in Saturday's preseason finale against the Packers but should be ready prior to the regular-season opener Sept. 7.
Aug 9, 2025
To miss a few weeks
Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald said Saturday that Knight (knee) will miss a "couple weeks" and is dealing with a "medical issue" in addition to his knee injury, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Macdonald declined to specify the exact nature of Knight's knee injury or medical issue, but it at least appears the second-year pro is expected to be back in action ahead of Week 1. It remains to be seen, though, whether Knight will be cleared to suit up in either of Seattle's two remaining preseason games. He sat out Thursday's preseason opener against the Raiders, a 23-23 tie.
Aug 5, 2025
Dealing with knee injury
Knight did not participate in Tuesday's training camp practice due to a knee injury, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Knight observed Tuesday's practice in street clothes after injuring his knee during Monday's session. The 2024 fourth-rounder started in nine of 16 regular-season games in his rookie campaign (seven of which came over the Seahawks' final eight contests) and finished with 88 tackles (41 solo), including 1.5 sacks, two pass defenses and one fumble recovery. He's listed as the starting WLB on the Seahawks' unofficial depth chart.
Jan 17, 2025
Impresses in second half
Knight recorded 88 tackles (41 solo), two pass breakups and 1.5 sacks through 16 games during the 2024 season.
ANALYSIS
Knight played sparingly to begin the season, but he was named starter after the Week 10 bye and never looked back, tallying 65 tackles through the final eight games (8.1 per game). The rookie fourth-round pick probably hasn't done enough to guarantee a starting role in 2025, but he'll be in the competition barring high-end additions to the team this offseason.
Dec 10, 2024
Makes 12 tackles in win
Knight finished with 12 tackles (three solo) and two pass breakups in Sunday's 30-18 win over the Cardinals.
ANALYSIS
The inside linebacker also played on at least 77 percent of the defensive snaps for the fourth game in a row since Seattle waived Tyrel Dodson. In those four games, Knight has 35 tackles (15 solo). The 2024 fourth-round pick has established himself in the middle of Seattle's defense.
Dec 3, 2024
Fumble recovery in win
Knight recorded four total tackles (three solo) and a fumble recovery in Sunday's 26-21 win over the Jets.
ANALYSIS
Knight made his biggest impact in the third quarter, recovering a fumble from running back Breece Hall, which was forced by teammate Julian Love. Through 11 games in 2024, the linebacker has compiled 46 total tackles (27 solo), including 1.0 sacks, while also recovering a fumble.
Nov 25, 2024
Makes nine stops in win
Knight recorded nine tackles (five solo), including 1.0 sacks, in Sunday's 16-6 win over the Cardinals.
ANALYSIS
The inside linebacker also played on at least 80 percent of the defensive snaps for the second game in a row since taking over the starting role following the departure of Tyrel Dodson. Knight has 19 tackles (nine solo) over those two games. The 2024 fourth-round pick appears entrenched as the starter going into a Week 13 matchup with the Jets.
Nov 18, 2024
Plays well in bigger role
Knight recorded 10 tackles (four solo) in Sunday's 20-17 win over the 49ers.
ANALYSIS
The 2024 fourth-round pick took over a starting role at inside linebacker after Seattle waived Tyrel Dodson on Nov. 11. Knight also played on 47 defensive snaps Sunday, a season high.
Nov 11, 2024
Moves into starting role
Head coach Mike MacDonald told reporters that Knight will serve as Seattle's starting weakside linebacker following the release of Tyrel Dodson on Monday, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Knight, a 2024 fourth-round pick from UTEP, has played more than 10 defensive snaps in just three games this season, recording 22 total tackles in those appearances. He'll have big shoes to fill, as Dodson led Seattle's defense in total tackles (71) before being let go. Expect Knight to start alongside Ernest Jones as part of the Seahawks' top inside linebacker duo in Week 11's matchup against the 49ers.
Oct 1, 2024
Takes advantage of increased snaps
Knight tallied nine tackles (seven solo) Monday in Seattle's loss to Detroit.
ANALYSIS
Knight finished second on the Seahawks in stops behind Tyrel Dodson in the defeat. With Jerome Baker (hamstring) missing the contest, Knight notched his second straight start and logged a season-high 74 percent of Seattle's defensive snaps. He could again see plenty of time on the field Sunday versus the Giants if Baker has to miss a third consecutive week.
Sep 20, 2024
In line to start vs. Miami
Knight is in line to make his first-career NFL start Sunday against Miami due to Jerome Baker (hamstring) being listed as doubtful, Curtis Crabtree of Fox 13 Seattle reports.
ANALYSIS
Baker had been dealing with a hamstring injury during training camp, and he aggravated it during the Seahawks' Week 2 overtime win over the Patriots. Knight took over for Baker at inside linebacker in that contest, and the former finished with seven tackles (three solo) while playing 42 snaps on defense and 10 on special teams. Knight was known as a run-stopper at UTEP, and the rookie fourth-round pick should see plenty of action at inside linebacker alongside Tyrel Dodson if Baker is inactive Sunday.
