George Fant's return from injured reserve was anticipated to bolster the Seahawks' offensive line, but he lasted only seven snaps before re-aggravating a knee injury. His early exit forced rookie Mike Jerrell back into the lineup, highlighting the ongoing struggles of the right side of the line. Fant's absence contributed to a dismal performance, as the line allowed multiple pressures and sacks, exacerbating the team's offensive woes. The coaching staff is now reevaluating personnel and performance in hopes of improving protection for Geno Smith and the overall effectiveness of the offense.
