Seahawks add another defender to their reserve/COVID-19 list

While the Rams’ COVID-19 situation is steadily getting better, the Seahawks’ is getting worse.

While the Rams’ COVID-19 situation is steadily getting better, the Seahawks’ is getting worse. The team just announced that defensive tackle Bryan Mone has been added to their reserve/COVID-19 list. That brings their total to nine players.

Mone has played 12 games this season, totaling 1.5 sacks, three quarterback hits and a career-high 31 tackles. He’s been on the field for 342 (38%) of the team’s defensive snaps this year.

He joins wide receiver Tyler Lockett, running back Alex Collins, cornerback D.J. Reed, right tackle Brandon Shell, running back Travis Homer, defensive end Kerry Hyder Jr. and practice squad players Pier-Olivier Lestage and Mike Jackson.

Seahawks DT Bryan Mone’s knee injury isn’t as severe as feared

Seattle Seahawks defensive tackle Bryan Mone’s knee injury isn’t as severe as first feared when he left the Week 14 game against the Texans.

A number of Seattle Seahawks players suffered injuries in the team’s Week-14 win over the Houston Texans on Sunday, including defensive tackle Bryan Mone. Mone left the game with what appeared to be a significant knee injury.

Fortunately, on Monday, coach Pete Carroll was able to report the injury wasn’t quite as severe as initially suspected.

“He sprained his knee somewhat,” Carroll said during his afternoon press conference. “It seems like it’s a PCL sprain, and he’s getting around really well today. Everybody was surprised that he was getting around so well today, so we’ll just have to wait and see. We’ll take care of him during the week and find out by the end of the week if he’ll be OK, but it was a very positive report relative to not knowing if it was an ACL or all that kind of stuff yesterday. So we’ll keep our fingers crossed it’ll be OK.”

While Mone likely won’t participate in practice this week, it’s a relief to know he should be on the mend sooner than later,

Seahawks: Notes from Pete Carroll’s post-Week 14 press conference

Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll just finished his weekly Monday press conference following his team’s easy 33-13 win over the Texans.

Here are a few notes from the media that took part in that conversation.

Seahawks’ injury updates following win over 49ers Week 13

Coach Pete Carroll provided a number of player injury updates following the team’s win over the San Francisco 49ers in Week 13.

The Seattle Seahawks came away with a thrilling victory on Sunday, beating their rival San Francisco 49ers in front of the home crowd. Following the win, coach Pete Carroll provided a number of player injury updates.

Safety Jamal Adams left the game early and was unable to return. He remained on the sidelines in street clothes for the remainder of the matchup. “He sprained his shoulder today, the one that was operated on (after last season),” Carroll told reporters. “I don’t know any updates other than that.”

Tackle Brandon Shell also left the contest early with a shoulder injury. “Brandon Shell, it’s the same shoulder that was bothering him, just aggravated again,” Carroll explained. “Not a whole lot worse than it was last week, but he didn’t finish last week either.”

Fellow offensive lineman, guard Kyle Fuller, sustained an ankle injury. “He sprained his ankle,” Carroll said. “I don’t know any update on that either.”

Defensive tackle Bryan Mone, who banged up his knee, was ultimately able to return to the game. “Mone had a knee injury, he put a brace on and was OK to go back,” Carroll confirmed. “Toughed that out for sure.”

Carroll should have additional injury updates by his scheduled Monday afternoon press conference.

Seahawks DT Bryan Mone ready to go Week 3 against the Vikings

Seattle Seahawks defensive tackle Bryan Mone is ready to go Week 3 against the Vikings after missing the Titans game with an elbow injury.

Seattle Seahawks defensive tackle Bryan Mone was a full participant in Friday’s practice, a good indication he’ll be available and ready to go Sunday afternoon against the Minnesota Vikings.

Mone impressed in his first outing this season, but was inactive last week for the Titans game as he battled an elbow injury.

“There’s no doubt that we missed him last week,” coach Pete Carroll said Friday. “He’s such a load in the middle, he played so well early. He’s been really consistent for us. We did miss him last week. I’m thrilled to tell you he is playing, and he’ll be ready to go.”

Carroll continued to gush about the defensive tackle and his role for Sunday, when he’s expected to contribute significantly.

“He’s just one of the heart and soul guys in the program and everybody’s favorite, and he plays so darn hard,” Carroll said. “He’ll be a great boost to us. He’ll help Al (Woods) and Poona (Ford) inside and keep the rotation alive like we started of the season.

“Hopefully we’ll get to see a good deal of him and a good rotation with that.”

Pete Carroll details Seahawks injuries ahead of Vikings Week 3

Seattle Seahawks coach Pete Carroll details the player injuries ahead of the Minnesota Vikings matchup for Week 3.

Seattle Seahawks coach Pete Carroll provided a number of player injury updates on Wednesday to start the Week 3 preparation to face the Minnesota Vikings.

Defensive tackle Bryan Mone (elbow): “His strength is really coming back and from what I heard today they tested him three or four times,” Carroll told reporters. “I don’t know what that means yet, but his strength came way back from where it was. He’s feeling much better but we have to find out if that’s enough to let him play yet. I don’t know that yet. It’s elbow-related, so there’s some tricep in there. It’s in that area.

Offensive tackle Brandon Shell (ankle): “He’s still a little sore, he won’t go today,” Carroll said. “We will see what happens this week, he will go day to day.”

Running back Rashaad Penny (calf): “He’s running and he won’t make it this week, unless it’s a real surprise by the end of the week,” Carroll confirmed. “That’s due to the process that has to make on running and all of that.”

Wide receiver DK Metcalf (knee): “Yeah, he’s going today.”

Pete Carroll updates Seahawks injuries after Week 2 loss to Titans

Coach Pete Carroll updates the Seattle Seahawks’ injury situation after their Week 2 loss to the Tennessee Titans in overtime.

The Seattle Seahawks’ egos might be bruised after dropping their home opener to the Tennessee Titans in overtime on Sunday, but the roster is looking relatively healthy heading into the workweek.

Coach Pete Carroll provided some injury updates during his morning radio hit on 710 ESPN Seattle.

The good news is that rookies cornerback Tre Brown (knee) and wide receiver Dee Eskridge (concussion) should be returning to action sooner than later.

“Tre Brown will come back in another week too to get back in the competition of it too, which will be good,” Carroll said of Brown, who is currently on injured reserve with a knee injury.  As for Eskridge, he has a shot to play this Sunday.

“The reports are really good coming out of the weekend that he feels back to normal,” Carroll said. “He’ll be worked back in and if he can maintain the workload then he’ll be fine to go. He has a really good chance to play.”

Carroll also confirmed right tackle Brandon Shell, who left the Titan’s contest early, does have an ankle sprain.

“We’ll see how he responds,” Carroll cautioned. “The MRIs and stuff were pretty positive for hopes that we’ll be OK.”

Finally, defensive tackle Bryan Mone is wait and see after missing Sunday’s game with an arm injury.

“We’ll have to wait and see on Bryan, it all depends on how he responds,” Carroll said. “He had a pretty good injury to his triceps, so we just need to see how it comes back and responds to the work and the pushing and the heavy-duty stuff he has to do. He would have been a very valuable part of this game and we really missed him this week.”

Carroll is expected to have additional updates during his Monday afternoon press conference.
