Rotowire
Nelson (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Gregg Bell of Sports Radio 93.3 KJR Seattle reports.
Nelson is set for knee surgery due to an issue the veteran offensive guard has been having with cartilage fragments. Ian Rapoport of NFL Network said Friday that the plan is for Nelson to avoid IR and return to the Seahawks after the team's Week 11 bye. Grey Zabel is set to start at left guard for Sunday's game.

Seahawks' Quenton Nelson: Shipped to Seattle
Rotowire
The Seahawks acquired Nelson from the Colts on Tuesday in exchange for a 2027 third-round draft pick and a 2028 fifth-round draft pick, Adam Schefter and Ian Rapoport of ESPN report.
After a 2-5 start to the season, the Colts already found themselves on the periphery of the AFC playoff picture and opted to cash out on the eight-time Pro Bowl left guard before he became an unrestricted free agent this offseason. In Seattle, Nelson will join 2025 first-round pick Grey Zabel to form one of the NFL's better guard tandems. The Seahawks are hoping that the addition of Nelson can help open up more running room for a ground attack that has averaged just 3.9 yards per carry through the first seven weeks of the season.
