RENTON, Wash. -- The Seattle Seahawks have ruled out defensive end Jadeveon Clowney for Sunday's game against the Carolina Panthers.
Already dealing with a core-muscle injury since Week 10, Clowney missed practice Wednesday and Thursday with an illness and returned Friday as a limited participant. The team initially listed him as questionable before downgrading him to out.
The Seahawks (10-3) could be down a pair of pass-rushers against the Panthers (5-8). Ezekiel Ansah, who missed the Seahawks' Sunday night loss to the Rams with a neck injury, is questionable to play at Carolina and will be a game-time decision.
