Ready for Sunday
Oluwatimi (knee/quadriceps) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Vikings, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports. Oluwatimi upgraded from a DNP on Wednesday to a full practice session Friday, suggesting that he's moved past his injuries ahead of Sunday's contest. With Oluwatimi back at full health, he's expected to serve as the Seahawks' top center in Week 16.
Dealing with multiple injuries
Head coach Mike Macdonald stated Oluwatimi suffered a knee and quadriceps injury in Sunday's loss to the Packers, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports. Oluwatimi suffered the injuries in the first half and was unable to return to the game. His absence on the offensive line was significant, with Seattle allowing 7.0 sacks to the Packers. His status for Week 16 against the Vikings will likely be clearer as the team gets closer to kickoff for that matchup.
Unlikely to return Sunday
Oluwatimi (knee) is doubtful to return to Sunday night's contest against the Packers. Oluwatimi suffered a knee injury in the first half and it appears as if it will sideline him for the remainder of the contest. In his absence, Jalen Sundell has taken over at center versus Green Bay.
