Seahawks’ opening day opponent loses linebacker to torn Achilles

We’re over three months out from Week 1 of the 2024 NFL regular season, but there’s already an injury that will impact the roster of the Seattle Seahawks’ opening day opponent.

9NEWS Denver reporter Mike Klis reports that Denver Broncos linebacker Drew Sanders suffered a torn Achilles just prior to the NFL Draft. The injury is only now being disclosed, and Sanders has already undergone successful surgery. However, it’s an Achilles injury and even if Sanders returns this season, it won’t be in time for the Seahawks vs. Broncos game.
