The Seattle Seahawks will attempt to win their fourth straight against on Sunday. The Week 15 contest versus the Indianapolis Colts will garner national attention if the Colts start 44-year-old Phillip Rivers at quarterback. The future Hall of Fame QB ended a five-year retirement earlier this week to return.
On the defensive side, the Colts are battling various injuries. We've identified three potential X-factors for the Seahawks on offense who are capable of taking advantage.
The Colts will be without both starting cornerbacks versus the Seahawks. Charvarius Ward is on IR and Sauce Gardner is week-to-week with an injury. Jaxon Smith-Njigba should take full advantage. The Colts are totally unequipped to deal with Smith-Njigba.
Zach Charbonnet led the Seahawks in rushing versus the Atlanta Falcons in Week 14. The former UCLA standout rushed for 46 yards. Charbonnet averaged a season-high 6.6 yards per carry and has scored a team-high eight touchdowns this year.
All indications are that Jalen Sundell will return to the Seahawks' lineup at center. He'll reclaim his starting gig, relegating Olu Oluwatimi to the bench. Sundell will receive a welcome-back opportunity versus a stout, tough Colts defensive line.
