Seahawks Initial Injury Report

The Seahawks initial injury report had some expected players, and a couple not so much.

The unexpected players included Doug Baldwin, who did not practice due to a hip injury of some nature.

Another unexpected (and key) player on the Seahawks injury report is starting left tackle Duane Brown, who didn’t practice with an ankle injury.

In both of these cases the extent of the injury is unknown. We’ll see if more information is forthcoming. Could be veteran days off, could be something more troubling.

The more expected names on the injury list included starting right guard DJ Fluker, who suffered a hamstring injury against the 49ers and is very unlikely to play against the Vikings Monday night.

LB KJ Wright and DE Dion Jordan also did not participate in practice, and it seems less likely from coach Carroll’s comments that Wright will play Monday. Jordan’s status is less clear- he’s had knee issues in the past and that’s what is listed here.

RB Chris Carson also showed up as limited with a dislocated finger, but is expected to play Monday night.

FB Tre Madden and former Viking DT Shamar Stephen were both limited, but also expected to play.

Also limited were safety Shalom Luani and linebacker Shaq Griffin. It’s not clear if either will play Monday night.

We’ll see how things play out in the coming days.
