The Seahawks designated Jenkins (hand) to return from injured reserve Wednesday, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.

Jenkins has missed the Seahawks' last four games after likely sustaining a hand injury in Seattle's Week 6 loss to the 49ers. However, his 21-day practice window was opened Wednesday, suggesting that he's nearing a return to the field. The 30-year-old safety now has a chance to play in the Seahawks' Week 12 matchup against the Cardinals, but he must first be activated to Seattle's active roster.
