Lead running back Kenneth Walker III will return from a two-game absence for the Seattle Seahawks in Week 4. They will need him against the Detroit Lions.

Running back Kenneth Walker III, who missed the past two games with an oblique injury, has no designation and will play Monday night against the Lions, head coach Mike Macdonald told reporters Saturday.

The Seahawks defense will be without Leonard Williams, Byron Murphy II, Uchenna Nwosu and Boye Mafe when Seattle visits the Lions on Monday night.

The Seahawks haven't had Kenneth Walker III on the field since Week 1. Is he ready to return for "Monday Night Football"?

The Seattle Seahawks will face their biggest challenge of the season on Monday night when they take on the Detroit Lions. Seattle is 3-0, but they’ve faced the likes of Bo Nix, Jacoby Brissett, Skylar Thompson and Tim Boyle to start the season. The Lions, led by Jared Goff and Co., will prove to be a considerably more difficult opponent.

The Seahawks might have their starting running back for "Monday Night Football," but a good chunk of their defense wasn't practicing Thursday.

The Seattle Seahawks had a walkthrough practice on Friday, as they gear up to take on the Detroit Lions for a Monday Night Football showdown. Walkthoughs are not a typical practice, and as such, the injury report is merely a projection of what it would have looked like had the Seahawks done a full practice.

Through three games the Seattle Seahawks are boasting one of the NFL's best pass rushes. Their defensive front has become absolutely suffocating to opposing quarterbacks, and only four teams in the NFL have more sacks than Seattle does right now.
