Seahawks Place LB Uchenna Nwosu On Physically Unable To Perform List

Outside linebacker Uchenna Nwosu, who had knee surgery this offseason, opens training camp on the physically unable to perform list.

Article says he had surgery to clean up his knee. Looks like a minor surgery that he should be ok.

He’s eligible to return at any time during the preseason.

Procise

Not even close to Procise. But this is concerning.

Honestly I’m as concerned about his ability to stay healthy as the next guy but knee cleanups are fairly common and healing from this type of surgery is just a matter of time and usually not that long.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

He's been out way too much for me not to be concerned. And I love that guy.

Love having on the field when he’s healthy, my prayer here is….

That this is what it’s going to take for him to get over the hurdle and give us the rest of his best years.

If this doesn’t work and he just stays his normal course….

… bye Felicia

Came from the chargers organization - a group well known for having endless injuries and brokedicks all damn day.

I hope he can shake of that charger ick and get right, because he is a baller.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

No dobut. A hell of a player when he's on the field.

You can choose to not be concerned. It’s way easier, more rational, and just feels really good.

I hope you’re correct, and this “procedure” will fix the recurring issues.

I really like him as a player but availability is a NFL player’s most important trait.

Cap space and roster spots are too valuable

So if he's out, who is in?

 

[CouchLogic]

He'll be back soon, I can't imagine cleaning out some scum from his past injury and waiting for the stitches to heal taking very long.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

I doubt it's a "nothing burger"

But hopefully we see him for most of the games in 2025. Why is it that certain players get called glass, soft, bust etc. But Nwusu seems to get a pass? Just seems like selective thinking. The dude has missed a lot of games. We need him. This is football, being concerned is a pretty reasonable take. I'm a HUGE fan of this guy, we just need him on the field. Consistently.

Lawrence and Mafe.

I think it’s fair to have concerns about his ability to stay on the field while not worrying about this particular surgery

 

[SoulfishHawk]

Perfectly stated ^

 

[Jerhawk]

Whatever it takes for him to be healthy Week 1, Jerhawk supports it. Fingers and toes crossed.

 

[Appyhawk]

Lawrence and Mafe.

Agree! I think Lawrence signing was a Nwosu insurance policy. I expect we will see Nwosu on the field well before TC is over.

Can't blame him for having his knee taken out by a cheap shot in preseason
