Witherspoon recorded seven tackles (four solo), two pass breakups and a forced fumble in the 26-20 overtime loss to the Rams on Sunday. This was Witherspoon's fourth seven-tackle game this season, as he's averaging 5.7 stops per game. The 2023 first-round pick has endured a significant drop in pass breakups with just three through nine games after posting 16 through 14 games last season. Witherspoon is a locked-in starter on Seattle's defense and should maintain a decent fantasy floor as a result.

Witherspoon (foot) was listed as a full practice participant Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports. Witherspoon popped up on Wednesday's injury report due to a foot injury, but it doesn't appear to be serious following his full practice Thursday. Barring any setbacks, Witherspoon should be good to go for Sunday's NFC West showdown against the Rams.

Witherspoon (hamstring) does not have an injury designation for Sunday's game against Miami, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports. Witherspoon opened the week with a pair of limited practices due to a hamstring issue, but he returned to full participation Friday and doesn't have an injury designation heading into the weekend. As such, he appears fine to suit up Sunday. Through two games, Witherspoon has tallied 14 tackles (nine solo) along with one defensed pass.

Witherspoon had three solo tackles in Sunday's 30-23 loss to the Steelers. Witherspoon returned from a two-game absence due to a hip injury he sustained in Week 14 against the 49ers. He played 35 defensive snaps Sunday as he ceded time to Mike Jackson, who played all 71 snaps on defense and finished with five total tackles. Witherspoon should see the field more in the Seahawks' regular-season finale against the Cardinals -- barring any setback during practice -- as Seattle still has a chance to make the playoffs.

Witherspoon (hip) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Steelers, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports. Witherspoon was able to log a week of limited practice sessions after missing Seattle's last two games, and he's now got a shot at suiting up in Week 17. If the 2023 first-round pick is unable to return to the field Sunday, expect both Mike Jackson and Tre Brown to see an uptick in snaps in the Seahawks' secondary.
