Dee Eskridge downgraded, Robert Nkemdiche elevated from practice squad

The Seattle Seahawks defeated the Indianapolis Colts in Week 1 of the 2021 NFL season, but in the fourth quarter of the 28-16 victory rookie second round wide receiver Dee Eskridge suffered a concussion.

That led to the youngster not practicing at all during the build up to the Week 2 matchup against the Tennessee Titans, and a designation of Doubtful on the Friday injury report. However, Saturday the team took the additional step of removing any question regarding the status of the young speedster, downgrading his status to Out, meaning Eskridge will not be eligible to suit up against Tennessee.
