Players and teams are typically aligned on one thing when it comes to the preseason: both sides are hoping to avoid injuries. Unfortunately, Seattle Seahawks edge rusher Uchenna Nwosu wasn’t so lucky on the injury front.

Nwosu suffered a knee injury on a chop block during Seattle’s preseason game against the Cleveland Browns on Saturday.

Nwosu suffered a sprained MCL on the play and is now expected to miss 2-6 weeks.

The 27-year-old could begin the season on injured reserve.

Nwosu is entering his third season with Seattle after spending four seasons with the Chargers. He had 16 tackles, including two sacks, in six games last year. Nwosu had 66 tackles and 9.5 sacks in 2022.

The Seahawks begin the season on Sunday, Sept. 8 at home against the Broncos.
