Cornerback Artie Burns is back for the Seahawks.
The team announced on Saturday that they have activated Burns from injured reserve. Burns appeared in one game earlier this season before suffering a toe injury and he played in 17 games for the Seahawks over the previous two seasons.
Safety Jerrick Reed went on injured reserve in a corresponding move. He had three tackles in five games this season.
The Seahawks also announced that they have elevated quarterback Jaren Hall and running back George Holani from the practice squad for their game against the Packers. Hall was elevated for one other game, but did not play. Holani has appeared in two games and gives the team depth with Kenneth Walker listed as doubtful to play.
Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker remained out of practice Friday, earning a doubtful designation for Sunday’s game against the Packers.
Walker, who leads Seattle with 542 yards rushing this season, has a calf injury.
Zach Charbonnet has 400 yards and is tied with Walker for the team lead with seven touchdowns after rushing for 134 yards and two touchdowns Sunday.
Wide receiver DK Metcalf (shoulder) has no injury designation after a full practice Friday.
The Seahawks ruled out cornerback Tre Brown (hamstring), free safety Jerrick Reed (quad), tight end Brady Russell (foot), offensive tackle Stone Forsythe (hand) and strong safety K’Von Wallace (ankle).
Cornerback Artie Burns (toe) is doubtful.
Cornerback Jaire Alexander is going to miss another game for the Packers.
Alexander has missed the last three games with a knee injury and head coach Matt LaFleur told reporters on Friday that he will make it four in a row when the Packers face the Seahawks on Sunday night. Alexander also missed Week Nine and had to leave his Week 11 return appearance against the Bears after a handful of snaps.
“Based on what I saw the past couple days, I didn’t feel he was ready to play,” LaFleur said, via Wes Hodkiewicz of the team’s website.
While Alexander will remain out, the Packers are set to get wide receiver Romeo Doubs back in the lineup. LaFleur said he has cleared the concussion protocol.
Seahawks coach Mike Macdonald called running back Kenneth Walker day to day Wednesday, but Thursday was not the day he returned to practice.
Walker remained out, rehabbing a calf injury.
He leads Seattle with 542 yards rushing this season. But Zach Charbonnet has 400 yards and is tied with Walker for the team lead with seven touchdowns after rushing for 134 yards and two touchdowns Sunday.
Wide receiver DK Metcalf (shoulder) had a limited session after full participation Wednesday.
Tight end Brady Russell (foot) did not practice Thursday after limited work Wednesday, and cornerback Tre Brown (hamstring) and safety Jerrick Reed II (quad) remained out.
Defensive end Leonard Williams (foot/rest) and linebacker Ernest Jones IV (knee/rest) returned to limited work Thursday.
Punter Michael Dickson (back) had full participation after limited work a day earlier.
Seattle running back Kenneth Walker is likely to be back sooner rather than later.
Walker missed last Sunday’s win over the Cardinals with a calf issue, but it doesn’t sound as if he’ll be sidelined for too much longer.
“He’s still day-to-day right now,” head coach Mike Macdonald said during his Wednesday press conference, via Gregg Bell of the Tacoma News Tribune. “It got more kind of complicated as the week went on. That’s why we had to do some more tests and stuff. But right now, there’s positive signs.
“So, we’ll just say day-to-day, I think is fair. But it’s not long-term.”
Walker leads Seattle with 542 yards rushing this season.
But Zach Charbonnet, who started against Arizona, has 400 yards and is tied with Walker for the team lead with seven touchdowns.
Charbonnet rushed for 134 yards on 22 carries with two TDs in last Sunday’s 30-18 victory.
Seattle’s full Wednesday injury report will be released later in the day.
