The Seattle Seahawks achieved a dramatic 38-37 overtime win against the Los Angeles Rams on Thursday Night Football, concluding Week 16 action. This victory elevated the Seahawks to the top of the NFC West and the conference playoff bracket, placing them ahead of the Rams.
Despite the jubilation of the win, the Seahawks will face the Carolina Panthers next week without linebacker Derick Hall. The NFL suspended Hall for one game without pay for unnecessary roughness and unsportsmanlike conduct, specifically for stepping on an opponent's leg during the game.
Hall's suspension is effective immediately, making him eligible to return on December 29th, after the Carolina game. He has the option to appeal the league's decision.
