Hall recorded 1.0 sacks on his only tackle in Saturday's 13-3 win over the 49ers.
Hall returned from his suspension to play 50 percent of the defensive snaps in the crucial divisional game. The 2023 second-round pick piled up 8.0 sacks in 2024, but he posted just 2.0 sacks this season due to the stellar play of DE Leonard Williams and LB Uchenna Nwosu, who both stacked up 7.0 sacks. Hall should continue to handle a middling role during the postseason.

Seahawks' Derick Hall: Suspension lifted
Rotowire
The NFL lifted Hall's one-game suspension Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Hall was handed a one-game suspension for unnecessary roughness and unsportsmanlike conduct during the Seahawks' overtime win over the Rams in Week 16, when he stepped on Kevin Dotson's leg. That prevented him from playing in Seattle's Week 17 win over Carolina, but now that the suspension has been lifted, Hall will be available for Saturday's regular-season finale against San Francisco, a game that will determine who enters the playoffs as the NFC's No. 1 seed.

Seahawks' Derick Hall: Cleared to play Week 9
Rotowire
Hall (oblique) does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Commanders, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.
An oblique injury sidelined Hall for the Seahawks' last two games, but he got the green light to play Week 9 after logging an LP-LP-FP practice log. He started in each of the two games prior to his injury, so his return will eat into the rotational defensive snaps available for Uchenna Nwosu, Connor O'Toole and Jared Ivey. Hall has 10 tackles (four solo) across five regular-season games in 2025.

Seahawks' Derick Hall: Could return Week 9
Rotowire
Head coach Mike Macdonald said Monday that he expects Hall (oblique) to be available for the Seahawks' Week 9 road game against the Commanders on Sunday, Nov. 2, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Hall has been sidelined for the Seahawks' last two practices and has been unable to practice since sustaining an oblique injury in Week 5 against the Buccaneers. If he's able to return to practice following the Week 8 bye, that would put the 2023 second-rounder in line to return for Week 9 against Washington. Uchenna Nwosu has seen a significant increase at outside linebacker over the Seahawks' last three games, so his workload on defense would likely decrease once Hall is cleared to return.

Seahawks' Derick Hall: Won't play against Houston
Rotowire
Hall (oblique) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Texans, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Hall was held out of practice all week and will miss a second consecutive game due to an oblique injury. Head coach Mike Macdonald said Saturday that he "expects [Hall] back after the bye," which puts the 2023 second-rounder on track to return for the Seahawks' Week 9 road contest against the Commanders, per Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic. Uchenna Nwosu will continue to see more rotational snaps at outside linebacker behind starters Boye Mafe and DeMarcus Lawrence while Hall is sidelined.

Rotowire
Hall (oblique) is out for Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.

Seahawks' Derick Hall: Doesn't practice Wednesday
Rotowire
Hall (oblique) didn't participate in Seattle's practice Wednesday, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.
Hall's absence from practice comes as no surprise, as head coach Mike Macdonald previously announced that the 24-year-old isn't expected to play in Sunday's matchup versus Jacksonville. In Hall's likely absence, Uchenna Nwosu should serve as the team's top reserve edge rusher.

Seahawks' Derick Hall: Likely out for Week 6
Rotowire
Head coach Mike Macdonald told reporters Monday that Hall (oblique) will likely miss Sunday's matchup against the Jaguars, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.
Hall played just eight defensive snaps in Sunday's 38-35 loss to the Buccaneers prior to sustaining an oblique injury. Macdonald added that the issue could sidelined Hall for "a couple games," so Uchenna Nwosu will likely serve as Seattle's top reserve edge rusher in Week 6.

Seahawks' Derick Hall: Ruled out with oblique injury
Rotowire
Hall has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Buccaneers due to an oblique injury.
Hall suffered the injury early in the first quarter, and the injury is severe enough for the medical staff to rule out the third-year linebacker for the rest of Sunday's game. With Hall done for the day and DeMarcus Lawrence (quadriceps) inactive, the Seahawks will lean on Boye Mafe, Uchenna Nwosu and Connor O'Toole at outside linebacker the rest of the way.

Seahawks' Derick Hall: Eight sacks in 2024
Rotowire
Hall finished the 2024 season with 37 total tackles (20 solo), including 8.0 sacks, while also adding two forced fumbles and a fumble recovery over 17 games.
Hall was a force to be reckoned with in 2024, recording 8.0 sacks after failing to get to the quarterback during his rookie campaign in 2023. Additionally, he was able to notch a scoop and score on a fumble recovery in Week 7 versus the Falcons, returning the loose ball for a 64-yard touchdown. The linebacker appears to be an ascending star for Seattle and will look to build off of his impressive sophomore campaign in the NFL in 2025.

Seahawks' Derick Hall: Limited in Monday's estimate
Rotowire
Hall (shoulder) was listed as limited on Monday's practice estimate, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
The Seahawks didn't actually hold a practice Monday, but Hall would've been a limited participant if they had. Hall's status in coming days as Seattle ramps up its practice schedule should offer a better indication of his chances of playing in Thursday's Week 17 matchup against the Bears.

Seahawks' Derick Hall: Questionable for Thursday night
Rotowire
Hall (foot) is listed as questionable ahead of Thursday night's matchup against the 49ers, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.
Despite Hall's questionable tag, head coach Mike Macdonald told reporters Wednesday that he's confident Hall will suit up for Thursday's divisional matchup, per Dugar. However, if the Auburn product's foot injury proves too much to overcome, expect Dre'Mont Jones to step in and serve as Seattle's top weakside linebacker.

Rotowire
Hall totaled four tackles (two solo), including 1.0 sacks, Monday in a loss to the Lions.

The 23-year-old has 4.0 sacks through four games this season after tallying zero sacks over 17 contests as a rookie last year.

Hall played through the injury during the Seahawks' Week 3 win over the Dolphins, during which he accrued five tackles (four solo), including 2.0 sacks, and one forced fumble.

Seahawks' Derick Hall: First career sack
Rotowire
Hall recorded two tackles and a sack in Sunday's 26-20 win over the Broncos.
Hall played a career-high 45 percent of the defensive snaps, and the second-year pro recorded his first career sack, coming against former Auburn teammate Bo Nix. The 2023 second-round pick could see a drop in playing time once Uchenna Nwosu (knee) returns to the lineup, but it's encouraging that Hall's developing as planned.

Rotowire
Hall aggravated a shoulder injury he dealt with earlier this year during Sunday's 37-3 loss to the Ravens, according to head coach Pete Carroll, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Hall worked through the injury during training camp but ultimately may have never fully recovered from it. Whether he is in danger of missing time won't likely be known until later in the week, before the team hosts the Commanders in Week 10.
