The 26-year-old edge rusher out of USC suffered a pectoral injury during Seattle's Week 7 win over the Cardinals, and he's set to undergo season-ending surgery, making it no surprise that he's now been placed on IR. Nwosa has started all 23 games he's appeared in for the Seahawks over the last two years, recording 82 total tackles, 16 tackles for loss and 11.5 sacks.
After sustaining a strained pectoral in Sunday's game versus Arizona, Nwosu seems to be trending towards sitting out his first game of the season in Week 8. Seattle's injury reports during the week will give a clearer indication of his availability.
