Quarterback Sam Darnold, wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba, defensive end DeMarcus Lawrence, defensive tackle Leonard Williams, cornerback Devon Witherspoon and return specialist Rashid Shaheed will represent the Seahawks at this year's games.

The 12th-year veteran defensive end said that after his 38-year-old head coach gave the players Friday, Saturday and Sunday off last weekend. That “mini bye” was following their rally from 16 points down in the fourth quarter to a massive win over the rival Los Angeles Rams.

The Seahawks ruled out LT Charles Cross (hamstring) and S Coby Bryant (knee) for Sunday vs the Panthers. Here’s who replaces them.

The Seahawks will play a second straight game without starting left tackle Charles Cross and they will play their first this season without starting safety Coby Bryant.

The Seahawks took an early 7-0 lead. After the defense forced a turnover on downs, the hosts went 61 yards on five plays, the biggest one being a 46-yard screen pass to Kenneth Walker III. Zach Charbonnet finished the drive with a 4-yard run up the middle.

DeMarcus Lawrence is enjoying both the team and individual success he knew was possible when he signed with the Seahawks in March.

Canales and offensive coordinator Brad Idzik spent years with the Seahawks under Pete Carroll and learned a lot in the process.

Rashid Shaheed has helped put the "special" into the Seattle Seahawks' special teams. Shaheed returned a punt 58 yards for a touchdown last Thursday against the Los Angeles Rams, which sparked a 16-point, fourth-quarter comeback in Seattle's 38-37 overtime victory.

Injuries to two starters mean a familiar fill-in on offense and on defense against the Panthers Sunday. And: what’s up with Horton?
