Quenton Nelson to miss Sunday's game with Seahawks due to knee injury 2 weeks after Colts' trade

Seattle Seahawks coach Mike Macdonald said Quenton Nelson will miss the team's game Sunday against Arizona due to a knee injury less than two weeks after Nelson was acquired from the Indianapolis Colts . "He's going to get a minor procedure," Macdonald said on Friday of his left guard. "He should be week to week. We're not going to put him on IR. "He had something he was dealing with when he got here. We re-imaged it. It was aggravated to some degree. We've done our due dilligence and everybody agrees it's best to take care of it now and play the long game." ESPN is reporting that Nelson will have surgery to clean out cartilage in his knee that "had been causing an issue recently." Nelson was not on the injury report for any games with the Colts this season. The Colts received a 2027 third-round pick and 2028 fifth-rounder for the All-Pro guard. The Colts have reportedly been shopping several other players, including running back Jonathan Taylor and receiver Josh Downs, but all indications are they will play against Dallas on Sunday. Joel A.
