Head coach Pete Carroll relayed Wednesday that Lockett (illness) is closing in on being activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Lockett found himself on the COVID-19 list last Thursday following a positive test for the virus, and while the Seahawks' Week 15 matchup was pushed back two days to Tuesday due to COVID-19-related issues afflicting the Rams, the delay didn't provide enough time for the wide receiver to clear league protocols. Carroll's comments could imply that Lockett may have returned his first negative test. If so, Lockett will need to do the same 24 hours from that initial test in order to return to the active roster.
