Seahawks defensive tackle Johnathan Hankins out for season with back injury

By Canadian Press on November 19, 2025.

RENTON, Wash. (AP) — Seattle Seahawks defensive tackle Johnathan Hankins will miss the remainder of the regular season, coach Mike Macdonald said Wednesday.

Hankins has not played in a game this season because of a back issue that has been causing him issues since training camp. He has been on the reserve/non-football injury list.

The 33-year-old lineman, who was a second-round pick by the New York Giants in the second round of the 2013 draft, signed with the Seahawks in March 2024.

Last season, Hankins appeared in all 17 games for the Seahawks. He had 30 total tackles with five tackles for loss, two QB hits and a sack.
