Tyrice Knight is expected to make his first career NFL start in place of Jerome Baker, who is sidelined due to injury. The rookie linebacker from UTEP showed promise with seven tackles in limited action against New England, although he had a few rookie mistakes, including getting caught out of position. Coach Mike Macdonald has emphasized that Knight needs to transition quickly from being a rookie to a reliable contributor, describing him as a "cool customer" who remains poised under pressure. Knight will face a significant challenge against Miami’s explosive running back De'Von Achane, as the coaching staff looks for him to improve and adapt rapidly in a critical role.

Seattle Seahawks Counting on Backups to Step Up Against Miami Dolphins

As the NFL season progresses into Week 3, both the Seattle Seahawks and Miami Dolphins face significant injury challenges ahead of their matchup at Lumen Field. The Seahawks listed nine players absent from practice, including tackle George Fant and edge rusher Uchenna Nwosu, alongside doubts for running back Ken Walker III and linebacker Jerome Baker.

Meanwhile, the Dolphins will also be missing quarterback Tua Tagovailoa due to a concussion, relying on backup Skylar Thompson. The absence of stars like Bradley Chubb and Odell Beckham Jr. adds to Miami’s struggles.

Seattle coach Mike Macdonald hopes young players like Stone Forsythe and Zach Charbonnet can step up against Miami's defense. With both teams experiencing significant roster changes, the adage 'next man up' will be crucial as they strive for victory amid adversity.
