Lockett (illness) and the Seahawks will no longer play the Rams on Sunday, after the NFL officially rescheduled the matchup between the two teams for Tuesday at 7 p.m. ET.
Due to ongoing COVID-19-related issues within the Rams organization, the NFL is hopeful that by delaying the game two days, Los Angeles will be able to restore enough players from the reserve/COVID-19 list to alleviate depth concerns on the roster. The two-day delay could also provide sufficient time for Lockett to return from the reserve/COVID-19 list after he tested positive for the virus Thursday, with his potential availability hinging on whether or not he's experiencing any symptoms. If Lockett doesn't clear the necessary protocols prior to Tuesday's game, the Seahawks will likely turn to a combination of Freddie Swain (ankle), Dee Eskridge (foot) and Penny Hart to handle reps at receiver alongside starter DK Metcalf (foot).
