The Seattle Seahawks, like many, many other teams around the league, are experiencing a number of injuries as the clubs close in on the final month of the NFL regular season.
Fortunately for the Seahawks, the schedule-makers were kind to Seattle, scheduling a Thursday game followed by a Monday-night matchup, giving the squad a bit of a mini-bye in Week 12.
Coach Pete Carroll is thankful for each extra day.
“We’re trying to take advantage of every day that the guys get another break to return,” Carroll said Tuesday. “Everybody’s banged up at this time of year, so these days are really important. So, the guys will feel better. They bounced around pretty good today. We’ll get another day off for Thanksgiving here too, so we should be in pretty good shape for this weekend.”
The Seahawks return to practice Friday and Saturday before heading to Philadelphia to square off against the Eagles in prime time Monday night.
