San Francisco 49ers’ Win Streak Doubtful to Persist as Potential Absentees Could Spoil Victory Run Over Seattle Seahawks

The final injury list of the Week 14 game has been released. After securing a win against the Philadelphia Eagles, Brock Purdy’s team is set to face the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday, December 10, at Levi’s Stadium. However, before the kickoff at 4:05 p.m. ET, the San Francisco 49ers have named their 6 key players on the injury reserve list.

The Niners and Hawks have faced each other 51 times till now, including 2 postseason games. Although the Hawks have the upper hand in the total number of wins, the 49ers are currently on a four-match winning streak against the team in the league. However, the significant players on the injury list this time might affect the team’s mighty dominance that started in 2022.

Updates on the injury of the team

Players like WR and return specialist Ray-Ray McCloud III (rib), OL Spencer Burford (knee), DL Arik Armstead (foot, knee), TE Ross Dwelley (ankle), CB Darrell Luter Jr. (hamstring), and Elijah Mitchell (knee) are out of the Sunday’s game. Despite trying to practice on Wednesday, WR Ray-Ray McCloud III was revealed to not be feeling well, as he sat out the rest of the week. Spencer Burford hasn’t participated in practice and was named in the doubtful list.

Arik Armstead and Ross Dwelley were ruled out of the game due to their injuries. Darrell Luter Jr. and Elijah Mitchell also joined Burford in the questionable category. Furthermore, T Trent Williams, who was out of Wednesday’s practice (not injury-related), was back in practice for Thursday and Friday. Therefore, he will be playing against the Hawks on Sunday.

The injury list has brought questioning on whether the 49ers will be able to continue their winning streak against the Hawks to the fifth game. In the overall battle of the teams, the Hawks have won 30 games in total, in comparison to the Niners’ 21 games. But there is more to the rich history of their rivalry.
