## Summary

Seattle Seahawks coach Mike Macdonald says Quenton Nelson will miss Sunday’s game against the Cardinals after aggravating a knee problem. The eight-time Pro Bowl guard is week-to-week and will have a minor procedure to remove cartilage, complicating the start of his Seahawks career.

Nelson, 30, has played just one game for Seattle since arriving from the Indianapolis Colts on 27 October. The team does not plan to place him on injured reserve, saying it wants to address the issue and take a long-term view. Seattle acquired him for a 2027 third-round pick and a 2028 fifth-round pick.
