Amari Kight: Breaking News

Returns from injury

Kight (knee) participated in the Seahawks' OTAs on Tuesday, Lindsey Wasson of Journal-News.com reports. Kight finished Seattle's 2025 campaign on injured reserve with a knee issue, but his participation in Tuesday's practice indicates he has now fully recovered. The second-year pro from UCF will likely compete for one of the Seahawks' top reserve tackle spots as the offseason progresses.

Shifts to IR

Kight (knee) was placed on IR on Tuesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports. The rookie offensive lineman from UCF joined Seattle's active roster late in the season with both Charles Cross and Josh Jones dealing with injuries. However, Kight won't be able to suit up for the Super Bowl LX matchup against the Patriots on Sunday after moving to IR. Expect Jones and Mason Richman to operate as the Seahawks' top reserve tackles while Kight is out.

Unavailable Sunday

Kight (knee) is inactive for Sunday's NFC Championship Game against Los Angeles. Kight was absent from practice Wednesday and Thursday due to a knee injury, and he'll now be forced to sit out Sunday. In his absence, Josh Jones will operate as the undisputed top reserve option at offensive tackle versus the Rams.
