The Seattle Seahawks put out their final injury report Friday for their home opener this weekend. It’s the most encouraging report so far.
TheSeattle Seahawksplay their first division game Sunday in Arizona. As they do every week, Seattle released their final injury report Friday afternoon. With one possible exception, this was probably the most optimistic injury report since the season started.
Back in Action
Seahawks quarterbackRussell Wilsongets his favorite target back on Sunday.Doug Baldwinhad his first full practice on Thursday since injuring his right knee in the preseason. Back in August, he admitted his left knee wasn’t going to be 100% this year and then hurt the other one. Although he will be playing with two gimpy knees, Baldwin still has great hands and does a good job getting separation from defenders. He’ll help open the field for the offense.

Also back is centerJustin Britt, who was battling a shoulder injury, was a full participant in practice since Tuesday.Joey Huntwas very good as his replacement, but it will be good to have the anchor back on the line.
Finally, Russell Wilson (hamstring) appeared on the injury report earlier this week, causing some concern. He is off the injured list and good to go.
Not back in action
K.J. Wrightstill hasn’t practiced this season due to a knee injury, he remains out of action. Defensive endRasheem Green(ankle) will also miss this week’s game.
Doubtful
Left guardEthan Pocicreturned to practice on a limited basis Thursday. Last weekJ.R. Sweezydid an admirable job moving from right guard the previous two weeks to replacing Pocic on the left side. Also, it may be a minor miracle but there is a slight chance that oft-injured running backC.J. Prosisecould play Sunday.
Questionable
It was a bit of a surprise that running backChris Carsonwas limited in practice all week after running over the Dallas defense last Sunday. Carson is listed as questionable for Arizona, if he has to come out of the lineup, rookieRashaad Pennywill have to step up.Dion Jordanis still fighting a hip injury. The defensive end didn’t practice on Tuesday and Wednesday but was a limited participant on Thursday.
Finally, back up safetyDelano Hillisn’t quite back to full health, but he did practice fully on Thursday.
