Laviska Shenault Jr. has been signed to the Chargers' practice squad after being released by the Seahawks. A second-round pick in 2020, he may be utilized primarily for kick and punt returns, and could be activated for the upcoming game if Ladd McConkey is unable to play due to injury.

Laviska Shenault Jr. struggled significantly during the game, fumbling two kickoffs and contributing to the Seahawks' special teams issues. His mistakes, including a fumble that gave the Jets favorable field position, could have cost Seattle the game. The coaching staff will need to address his performance to prevent similar errors in the future.

Laviska Shenault Jr. was waived by the Seahawks after a disastrous performance on special teams against the Jets, where he fumbled twice during kick returns. His release leaves a vacancy on the 53-man roster, which the team may fill with a free agent or a player from the practice squad. Despite averaging 28.7 yards per return this season and having a touchdown earlier in the year, Shenault's mistakes proved costly, contributing to the team's early deficit in the game. His performance was overshadowed by rookie Dee Williams, who, despite fumbling multiple times this season, retained his spot on the roster, possibly due to his dual role as a punt returner.

Laviska Shenault Jr. left the game in the first half with an oblique injury and has been ruled doubtful to return against the 49ers. His absence, along with Dee Williams' injury, leaves the Seahawks without their primary kick returners.

Laviska Shenault Jr. was listed on the Seahawks' injury report but fully participated in practice on Thursday, indicating he is likely to be available for the upcoming game against the Falcons.
