The Seattle Seahawks and the Detroit Lions are both looking to bounce back from their Week 1 losses, but they will have to do so without some of their key players who are sidelined with injuries.

The Seahawks announced their inactives list for Sunday’s game at Ford Field, and it includes three starters: safety Jamal Adams, left tackle Charles Cross and outside linebacker Boye Mafe. Adams and Cross were ruled out on Friday with knee and toe injuries, respectively, while Mafe was listed as questionable with a knee injury. The Seahawks will also be without linebacker Devin Bush, who has a shoulder injury, and defensive end Mike Morris, who has a shoulder injury.

The Seahawks will get back rookie cornerback Devon Witherspoon, who missed the season opener with a hamstring injury. The first-round pick is expected to make his NFL debut against the Lions. The Seahawks will also have three other players who were inactive last week: outside linebacker Tyreke Smith, guard Anthony Bradford and cornerback Kyu Blu Kelly.

The Lions also released their inactives list, and it features two starters: left tackle Taylor Decker and cornerback Emmanuel Moseley. Decker was downgraded to out on Saturday with a finger injury, while Moseley was ruled out on Friday with knee and hamstring injuries. The Lions will also be without defensive linemen Isaiah Buggs and Brodric Martin, and cornerback Steven Gilmore.

The Lions will have rookie guard Kayode Awosika active for the first time this season. He was elevated from the practice squad on Saturday. The Lions are still at 52 players on their active roster after placing defensive lineman Josh Paschal and cornerback Kahlil Dorsey on injured reserve this week.

The Seahawks and the Lions will kick off at 1 p.m. ET on Sunday.
