- Julian Love is back, and the Seahawks are still trying to figure out whether Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Leonard Williams can keep doing what they’ve been doing.
- That’s the split at the center of Sunday’s Week 4 matchup with the Chargers at Lumen Field: Seattle gets a starter back from injury, while Los Angeles arrives with five players listed as questionable, including Derwin James and Ladd McConkey.
- The game kicks off at 1:25 p.m.
- The Chargers, meanwhile, are still searching for their first win of the 2026 season after digging into an 0-3 hole that included a Week 2 loss to the Raiders.
- Derwin James and Ladd McConkey are among five Chargers listed as questionable, leaving another layer of uncertainty around a team already trying to right the ship.
- Seattle, by contrast, gets Love back and can line up with more clarity around its secondary.
- So the game at Lumen Field has two different kinds of pressure attached to it.
