61% COIN FLIP → 96% EXPECTED

Every call we wrote for him in week 7, earliest first, as written.

In short

Tyrice Knight is a starter at left inside linebacker for SEA — 85% of the snaps in his best week of 7. He has an oblique injury. His team has not listed him on the final report. We say he plays — 96%, in a band that plays 96% of the time. We have said PLAY since 97 hours before kickoff.

The reader concurs · grade B

The only club-sourced in-week report has Knight as a limited participant with an oblique on Wed 21 Oct, with no non-participation and no game designation, while three other linebackers were full non-participants (P4) — a milder practice line than the FULL the model priced, but nothing that contradicts a PLAY call. A beat preview dated 23 Oct, inside the practice week, says Thomas has missed practice a second straight week and that Knight 'is in line to fill in once again,' with Nwosu and O'Toole also in doubt (P2), which argues both that he is expected available and that the club is thin behind him. The remaining items are stock roster photo captions carrying no status information (P1, P3), so the Thursday/Friday reports and the Friday designation are still unseen. It would need to know: Seahawks official Thursday 22 Oct and Friday 23 Oct practice participation reports for Knight (oblique) — limited or full; The Friday 23 Oct official game-status designation (Out/Doubtful/Questionable/none) for Knight ahead of Sun 25 Oct vs Kansas City; Any Mike Macdonald remark 19-24 Oct on the severity of Knight's oblique; Whether Drake Thomas (ankle), Chazz Surratt (calf) or Connor O'Toole (hamstring) practiced late in the week, which would reduce Knight's necessity; Sunday 25 Oct inactives list for Seattle
