Seahawks' Nelson Avoids IR After Knee Surgery
7 Nov
Summary
- Nelson underwent surgery to remove knee cartilage fragments.
- Avoiding injured reserve means he could miss fewer than four games.
- His availability for Week 12 against the 49ers is uncertain.
Quenton Nelson has undergone a knee procedure to address cartilage fragments. The current plan is to avoid placing him on injured reserve.
Placing Nelson on short-term injured reserve would typically mandate a four-game absence. The Seahawks' upcoming schedule includes games against the Cardinals and Raiders, followed by a bye week. This timeline offers a potential opportunity for Nelson to return for the Week 12 matchup against the 49ers.
His exact availability for that game will be contingent on his recovery status. While his loss is unfortunate, avoiding injured reserve presents a more optimistic outlook for his return to the field.
