Darnold (oblique) doesn't have a designation for Super Bowl LX versus the Patriots on Sunday, Feb. 8, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Prior to both of Seattle's first two playoff games, Darnold was listed as questionable due to a left oblique injury but still suited up, combining for 470 passing yards, four touchdowns and no interceptions in those contests. He remained listed as limited on all three practice reports of this week, but he seemingly has a clean bill of health before the final contest of the campaign.

Thomas (shoulder) doesn't have an injury designation ahead of Super Bowl LX, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Thomas upgraded to full participation in Friday's practice after being a limited participant earlier in the week. The linebacker sustained a shoulder injury in the fourth quarter of last Sunday's NFC Championship Game victory over the Rams, but he appears to have returned to full health. Thomas will have another week to recover before taking the field against the Patriots on Sunday, Feb. 8.

Maye (right shoulder/illness) is listed as questionable for Super Bowl LX against the Seahawks on Sunday, Feb. 8.

With one week of Super Bowl prep in the books, Maye capped it with a missed practice Friday due to an illness, which followed back-to-back limited listings due to a right shoulder injury. The second issue mostly has been downplayed by coach Mike Vrabel and Maye himself, but his status still bears watching now that he's dealing with multiple health concerns. The Patriots won't post another injury report until next Wednesday, at which point Maye's availability for the final game of the season could have more clarity.

Jones (chest) doesn't have an injury designation ahead of the Super Bowl LX matchup against the Patriots, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Jones was a limited participant in Thursday and Friday's practice sessions, and the absence of any injury designation means the middle linebacker should be good to go for the Super Bowl. The 26-year-old will have one more week to recover fully, but being cleared a week before the game is a strong sign that the defensive captain will be playing.

Head coach Mike Vrabel told reporters that Landry (knee) didn't practice Friday, Mike Kadlick of CLNSMedia.com reports.

Landry has now missed consecutive practices after being sidelined for the AFC Championship Game win over the Broncos due to a knee injury. The 29-year-old led New England's defense in sacks this past regular season, tallying 8.5 across 15 appearances. He'll likely need to upgrade to a full practice at some point to avoid an injury designation ahead of the Super Bowl LX matchup against the Seahawks on Sunday, Feb. 8.

Head coach Mike Vrabel told reporters that Spillane (ankle) didn't practice Friday, Mike Kadlick of CLNSMedia.com reports.

Spillane has now logged consecutive DNPs after sustaining an ankle injury in the AFC Championship Game win over the Broncos. The 30-year-old linebacker led New England's defense in total tackles during the regular season, recording 97 stops over just 13 contests. If he's unable to suit up for the Super Bowl LX matchup against the Seahawks on Sunday, Feb. 8, expect Jack Gibbens to have an expanded role with the Patriots' first-team defense.

Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel said Maye did not practice Friday due to a combination of illness and his right shoulder injury, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

Maye managed a limited practice session Thursday, which included taking part in throwing drills, but his activity level has now been downgraded due to the addition of an ailment. He was also listed as limited on Wednesday's estimated injury report. Vrabel confirmed that if not for his new illness, Maye would have taken part in practice Friday, per Taylor Kyles of CLNSMedia.com. As such, it doesn't appear that there's any reason for elevated worry about Maye's health after Vrabel stated Thursday that there's "not much" concern about the status of the starting quarterback's shoulder. New England will have one more full week of practice to ramp up Maye's rep count in advance of Super Bowl LX against the Seahawks on Sunday, Feb. 8.

Maye (shoulder) is not present at the early portion of Friday's practice open to the media, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.

Maye was officially listed as limited at Thursday's practice, as well as on Wednesday's estimated report, though when speaking Thursday head coach Mike Vrabel said there's "not much" concern about the starting quarterback's right shoulder injury. After Thursday's session, Maye said he did take part in throwing drills and is "looking forward to trying to get some more reps here and there and feel it out," seemingly indicating New England's plan is for him to ramp up his activity level next week in advance of Super Bowl LX against the Seahawks. The release of Friday's official injury report will confirm whether or not Maye was able to get in any on-field reps.

Cross (foot) did not participate in Thursday's walkthrough, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Cross was able to play through a foot injury during the Seahawks' NFC Championship Game victory over the Rams on Sunday. Seattle will take the cautious approach in managing Cross's injury, and the fourth-year offensive lineman will have more than a week to recover ahead of Super Bowl LX against the Patriots on Sunday, Feb. 8. Backup offensive linemen Josh Jones (ankle/knee) and Amari Knight (knee) were estimated as limited and DNP, respectively, for Thursday's session.

Love (shoulder) was estimated as a limited participant in Thursday's walkthrough, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Love is working through a shoulder issue that he likely picked up Sunday against the Rams in the NFC Championship Game. The good news for the veteran safety is that he will have additional time to recover ahead of the Seahawks' Super Bowl LX clash against the Patriots on Sunday, Feb. 8.
