Seahawks Rule Out Ken Walker III For TNF at Bears
Three days after suffering an ankle injury in a loss to the Minnesota Vikings, the Seattle Seahawks will be without running back Ken Walker III when they travel for a post-Christmas battle against the Chicago Bears at Soldier Field.
Walker exited Sunday’s loss to Minnesota late in the fourth quarter following a goal line run and the team quickly declared him doubtful to return. With Seattle only holding two walkthroughs leading up to Thursday’s Week 17 contest in Chicago, he was listed as a non-participant for both, a clear sign he wouldn’t be able to recover in time to suit up for the critical late-season matchup.
Injuries have been a significant problem for Walker in his third season with the Seahawks, as he already missed four games earlier in the year with oblique and calf injuries, including two games earlier this month against the Cardinals and Packers.
With Walker sidelined, Seattle will turn to Zach Charbonnet for his fifth start of the season after the second-year back wasn’t listed on the final injury report. He only had one carry against Minnesota after missing practice time last week with an oblique strain, but he was upgraded to full participant on Tuesday and Wednesday’s walkthrough.
Behind Charbonnet, Kenny McIntosh will serve as the primary backup and should see extensive action, especially with Charbonnet not being 100 percent healthy himself. The team could also sign George Holani off of the practice squad to the 53-man roster, but a corresponding move would need to be made to create a spot for him.
Aside from Walker, the Seahawks also ruled out tight end Brady Russell with a foot issue and he will miss his fifth game out of the past seven. He could be a candidate for injured reserve if the team wants to sign Holani to help replace Walker on the depth chart at running back.
Safety K’Von Wallace, who returned to practice two weeks ago from injured reserve, will not be activated prior to Thursday’s game in Chicago. Seattle will have to make a decision on whether or not to activate him for the season finale in Los Angeles next week.

Seahawks Face Tough Path to Playoffs With Control of Destiny Lost
Quentin Mosby apparently has decided he’s better off playing his high school basketball on the shores of the Gulf Coast rather than just up the street from Lake Washington.
At IMG Academy, rather than the Lakeside School.
In South Florida, rather than North Seattle.
On Thursday, multiple basketball websites reported the 6-foot-2 Mosby, after two years at academic-minded Lakeside, will transfer and play his final two seasons at sports-centric IMG in the coastal community of Bradenton.
It appears Mosby simply needed a step up in basketball competition after averaging 30.4 points per game for Lakeside as a sophomore and continuing his high-scoring ways with Seattle Select on the Under Armour All-Star circuit this summer at a 24.5 clip.
The forseeable drawback to this arrangement is the University of Washington basketball program, which made him a scholarship offer last month, will now have to conduct a long-distance courtship of this savvy player rather than just head to a local gym.
NEWS: 2028 4⭐ Quentin Mosby will transfer to IMG Academy (FL) for his junior season of high school, sources told @LeagueRDY.
Mosby currently leads the UAA U17 in scoring and has picked up offers from Utah, Georgia Tech, Washington and Stanford amongst others.

Mosby is clearly a mature player with the ball in his hands, able to go to the hoop with authority as well drain 3-pointers from around the perimeter.
Yet he largely was a one-man show at a school that counts its most famous alums as Microsoft founders Bill Gates and Paul Allen, Batman actor Adam West, McCaw Cellular founder Craig McCaw, Washington Governor Booth Gardner, Space Needle owner David Skinner and Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Corbin Carroll.
Typical of his dominance in the 3A Metro League, Mosby came up with a 40-point, 10-assist performance in Lakeside’s 83-77 overtime victory over Franklin this past January.
His father Dre Mosby reportedly played for Spokane’s John Rogers High School and led the Greater Spokane League in scoring at 20-plus points per game in 1997 after moving with family members from Southern California. He’s now a Seattle gym owner and a fitness trainer.
So good at such a young age, this young Mosby just keeps getting more offensive-minded, showing no reluctance at all to take on older players. He holds offers from Georgia Tech, Stanford, Seattle University, Utah and Weber State, with others such as Gonzaga making contact.
So now, if all goes as planned, it’s on to Florida to see where that will take his game and then whether he’ll come back to play his college basketball in his hometown.

Here’s the annual announcement from Seattle Parks – we’ve excised the non-local parks:
Seattle Parks and Recreation will turn on field lighting on ballfields throughout the city on the evening of Friday, July 3 and Saturday, July 4 to protect the surfaces. The ballfield lights will be turned on at approximately 9 PM.
The lights will be turned on to discourage the use of fireworks. Fireworks are illegal in the city of Seattle and will destroy the artificial turf on the fields or surrounding facilities. The approximate replacement cost for the synthetic surface based on per average full-size field (110,000 square feet) is $1.2 million. All the fields have been renovated in the past several years and benefit field users including soccer, football, baseball, ultimate frisbee and lacrosse.
The fields will be monitored from 9 PM to 3 AM
Lights at the following synthetic fields will be turned off at 3 AM on July 3 and 4:
Delridge Playfield, 4458 Delridge Way SW
Hiawatha Playfield, 2700 California Ave. SW
South Park Playfield, 8319 8th Ave S
Walt Hundley Playfield, 6920 34th Avenue SWLights will be turned off at the following grass fields at 11 PM on July 3 and 4:
West Seattle Stadium, 4432 35th Ave. SW
Comparing this to last year’s announcement, the lights will be on longer the night before the 4th, and the “monitoring” will be an hour later.
