Witherspoon posted nine tackles (five solo) during the Seahawks' 38-37 overtime win over the Rams on Thursday. Witherspoon matched a season high that he set in Week 4 against the Cardinals and finished as the Seahawks' fourth-leading tackler behind Drake Thomas (13), Ernest Jones (12) and Nick Emmanwori (11). Since the Seahawks' Week 8 bye, Witherspoon has totaled 47 tackles (30 solo), five pass defenses (one interception) and one fumble recovery across eight games.

Witherspoon recorded seven tackles (five solo), two pass breakups and an interception in Sunday's 37-9 win over the Falcons. This was Witherspoon's first interception since his rookie year in 2023. The former first-round pick struggled with injuries to begin the season, but he has averaged 6.1 tackles per game when healthy, providing a decent fantasy floor as the Seahawks' starting corner.

Witherspoon recorded seven tackles (four solo) in Sunday's 26-0 win over the Vikings. Witherspoon struggled with injuries to begin the season, but when healthy, he has averaged 6.0 tackles per game while adding three total pass breakups through seven outings. For real-life purposes, Witherspoon is a lockdown cornerback, but his tackle count will likely continue to be volatile.

Witherspoon (knee) practiced in full Wednesday, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports. Witherspoon has been out for each of Seattle's last three games with the knee injury. His full participation to begin the week should set him up for a return and a key role in the secondary in Week 9 against the Commanders.

Head coach Mike Macdonald said Monday that he expects Witherspoon (knee) to be available for the Seahawks' Week 9 tilt against the Cardinals on Nov. 2, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports. Witherspoon sustained a knee injury in Week 1, which has prevented him from playing in five of the Seahawks' last six games. He wasn't able to play in Seattle's 27-19 win over Houston on Monday despite logging back-to-back full practices to end Week 7 prep, but the Week 8 bye should put Witherspoon on track to play in Week 9. His return would result in Shaquill Griffin reverting to a rotational role in the secondary.
