Seahawks bring one player back from IR, send another one to IR

The Seattle Seahawks have activated reserve nickel cornerback Artie Burns off of injured reserve and onto the active roster.

Burns has been out since injuring his toe in Week 6 against the San Francisco 49ers. Even though he was ruled doubtful for Sunday night’s game against the Green Bay Packers, the Seahawks have opted to bring Burns back the same week he was designated for return to practice.

Unfortunately, Burns’ return comes with the likely realization that second-year safety Jerrick Reed II is likely done for the season. Reed was placed on injured reserve with a quad issue that must have come up in last week’s win over the Arizona Cardinals. With a mandatory four-game stint on IR, Reed’s regular season is over at the very least, and given there’s a limit to how many players can return from IR (8 in the regular season, 10 in the playoffs), it’s reasonable to think he won’t be back at all even for the postseason. Seattle only has two more IR-return slots it can use the rest of the regular season.

It’s a second straight season of injury for Reed, who showed promise as a special teams player. He tore his ACL late in his rookie season while covering a punt, and spent training camp and much of the regular season on the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list.

San Francisco and Seattle will meet for the third time this season, the 49ers taking the first matchup and the Seahawks taking the second. Winner of the Divisional Round will advance to the NFC Championship, the final round ahead of Super Bowl LX at Levi’s® Stadium.

Seahawks Will Host Rams Or 49ers In Divisional Round

Seahawks Will Host Rams Or 49ers In Divisional Round

The Seahawks will host an NFC West opponent in the divisional round of the playoffs.

Whether that opponent is the Rams or the 49ers will be determined on Sunday when the 49ers play the Eagles in Philadelphia. Also still to be determined is the date and time of the game.

The Rams, who are the No. 5 seed, beat the Panthers on Saturday to advance, and since Seattle, as the No. 1 seed, hosts the lowest-seeded team that advances out of the wild card round, the sixth-seeded 49ers would come to Lumen Field if they win on Sunday. If the Eagles win, however, the Rams would come to Seattle, while the Eagles would head to Chicago to face the Bears, who beat the Packers on Saturday night.

The Seahawks split the season series with both teams, losing to the 49ers in Week 1 and the Rams in Week 11 before beating the Rams in Week 16 and the 49ers in Week 18 as part of a seven-game winning streak that helped them win the NFC West and earn the No. 1 seed.

Next weekend’s game at Lumen Field will be the Seahawks’ first home playoff game with fans in the stadium—they hosted a wild card game in an empty stadium following the 2020 regular season—since they beat the Lions in the wild card round during the 2016 season. Prior to that empty-stadium loss to the Rams five years ago, the Seahawks won 10 consecutive home playoff games dating back to the start of their Super Bowl run in 2005. The Seahawks have reached the Super Bowl in each of the three previous seasons that they earned the No. 1 seed.
