Why Robert Nkemdiche might be important for Seahawks in week 2

The Seahawks made a couple of moves on Saturday ahead of Sunday’s week 2 game versus the Titans. One was to elevate Robert Nkemdiche to the active roster. The other was to downgrade receiver Dee Eskridge to out as he suffered a concussion in week one’s victory over the Colts.

Nkemdiche being elevated might mean that Seattle has doubts that defensive tackle Bryan Mone will be able to play. Mone has been limited in practice with an elbow injury suffered in week one. Make no mistake, though, Mone is a better run defender than Nkemdiche ever could be.
