Seahawks Face Cardinals Without Noah Fant and Laviska Shenault Jr. in Key Week 12 Matchup
Hey everyone, let's dive into some big news for the Seahawks as they gear up for their Week 12 game against the Arizona Cardinals. The team will be missing two key players—tight end Noah Fant and wide receiver Laviska Shenault Jr.—which could shake things up on the field.
Starting with Noah Fant, this marks his third consecutive game on the sidelines due to a groin injury he sustained in practice leading up to Week 9. Losing Fant is a blow to Seattle’s offense, as his ability to stretch the field and contribute in the passing game has been sorely missed. With him out, the Seahawks will look to AJ Barner and Pharaoh Brown to fill the void. They’ve also elevated Tyler Mabry from the practice squad to provide some much-needed depth at the tight end position.

Laviska Shenault Jr. is another absence worth noting. He’s out this week after suffering a back injury early in last week’s victory over the 49ers. Shenault’s versatility as a receiver and kick returner will certainly be missed, especially given his knack for making plays in crucial moments. Dee Williams, who had an ankle scare last week but is active, and running back Kenny McIntosh are expected to share kick return duties in Shenault's absence.
On a positive note, safety Rayshawn Jenkins returns after a month on injured reserve with a hand injury. His presence should bolster the Seahawks' secondary as they look to contain Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray. Additionally, offensive lineman Abraham Lucas is set to take on a full workload at right tackle, a promising development for Seattle's offensive line stability.
With divisional implications on the line, this game is pivotal. The Seahawks' defense has been in fine form, and they’ll need to keep up the pressure against the Cardinals to compensate for their offensive absences. Let’s see how it all plays out at Lumen Field!
