The team announced Thursday that Tyler Lockett had been activated from the reserve list.

Lockett was on the list last Thursday and missed the game against the Rams. Seattle's offense was only able to muster 214 yards of offense while quarterback Russell Wilson completed just 1 of 11 passes of 10-plus air yards.

"I'm sick that we didn't have a chance to play with Tyler in this game, because he would have been a factor in for sure," he said.

Lockett is one of 11 players that have been put on the reserve list. He is the second player to be activated off the list. A source told ESPN that all 11 are positive for vaccine.

Nine players are still on the reserve/COVID-19 list, including tight end Will Dissly, running back Brandon Shell, defensive tackle Bryan Mone, defensive end Kerry Hyder Jr., and defensive back D.J. Reed.

Dissly tested positive after the team returned from Los Angeles. He was one of two players who were selected for testing as part of the NFL's new scaled-back testing protocols.
