Grey Zabel & Kenneth Walker III Active, Ernest Jones IV Inactive For Seahawks’ Week 12 Game at Tennessee

NASHVILLE—The Seahawks will be without middle linebacker Ernest Jones IV for their Week 12 game against the Titans.

Jones, who was listed as questionable with a knee injury, is inactive for Sunday’s game, while the three other players listed as questionable—guard Grey Zabel, running back Kenneth Walker III and fullback Robbie Ouzts—are active.

Jones, who initially injured his knee in Seattle’s Week 9 win over the Commanders, missed one game, then returned last week to play against the Rams.

“His knee, really from a couple weeks ago, just working through it,” Seahawks coach Mike Macdonald said. “He hasn’t reinjured anything or anything, he’s just working through his knee.”

Zabel left last week’s game with a knee injury, but fortunately that injury proved to not be serious.

“This guy’s a tough cookie, man,” Macdonald said Friday. “It’s awesome to have him back out there. It’s a process, he’s going to work all the way up to gametime, but he’s confident, and it’s great to have him out there.”

The Seahawks will also be without linebacker Tyrice Knight, who suffered a concussion in last week’s game. With Jones and Knight both out, the Seahawks elevated linebackers Patrick O’Connell and Jamie Sheriff from the practice squad.
