Injury report
Seattle have ruled out left tackle Charles Cross (ankle), receiver Rashid Shaheed (knee) and running back Velus Jones Jr. (hamstring). Linebacker Uchenna Nwosu (ankle) is doubtful. QB Drew Lock (elbow), guard Anthony Bradford (knee), nose tackle Brandon Pili (back) and linebacker Patrick O'Connell (toe) are questionable.
Running back Zach Charbonnet will play his first game of the season after ACL surgery in February. Rookie Jadarian Price (chest) no longer has a designation and could be available.
The Bears have ruled out running back Kyle Monangai (toe) for a fourth straight game. Tight end Colston Loveland came off the injury report. Tight end Cole Kmet (knee), tackle Braxton Jones (knee) and defensive lineman Dayo Odeyingbo (quadriceps) remain on injured reserve. Linebackers T.J. Edwards (hamstring) and Jack Sanborn (concussion) were listed as questionable.
We think Seattle will edge it 24-20. The Seahawks' defense has limited opposing passing games, and Charbonnet's return adds balance to an offense that has struggled under pressure. Chicago have the top rushing attack and Williams in form, but without Monangai and with a vulnerable secondary, the margin looks slim.
