Seahawks hope Shelby Harris can pull through illness to play Thursday night

Seattle Seahawks defensive end Shelby Harris was inactive Week 14 with an illness but is hopeful to return Thursday night to face the 49ers.

Seattle Seahawks defensive end Shelby Harris was inactive Week 14 against the Carolina Panthers with an illness but the hope is that he is able to return in time for Thursday Night Football and the San Francisco 49ers.

During his Monday press conference, coach Pete Carroll said that Harris is still sick with what is assumed to be the same illness that has been circulating throughout the Seahawks locker room.

“Most all of the guys, it has been a 48-hour deal and he’s kind of at the tail end of it,” Carroll told reporters. “We’ve had a number of guys get sick and he’s one of the last guys getting it, hopefully, but we will see. I don’t know, each guy has been individually tasked with it.

“We will see if he can get through.”

Harris was listed as “did not participate” on the Seahawks’ estimated practice report for Monday.

Illness circulating Seahawks locker room ahead of Rams matchup

An undisclosed Illness has been circulating around the Seattle Seahawks locker room, with eight players sitting out Thursday ahead of Rams.

The Seattle Seahawks have a relatively light injury report heading into Week 13 against the Los Angeles Rams if you are only counting actual injuries. Numerous players, however, have been sidelined this week due to an undisclosed illness that appears to be circulating around the locker room.

On Wednesday, four players did not participate due to illness. By Thursday, eight Seahawks players were sitting out practice due to illness:

Guard Damien Lewis
Running back Travis Homer (also listed with knee)
Defensive end Quinton Jefferson
Linebacker Jordyn Brooks
Safety Josh Jones
Running back Tony Jones Jr.
Defensive end Myles Adams
Wide receiver Marquise Goodwin

Guard Phil Haynes and defensive tackle Al Woods had missed Wednesday’s session due to illness but both returned to full participation on Thursday.

The final injury report of the week will be released Friday after the walk-through so check back in the afternoon for the latest game-day designations.

Extra days could benefit Brandon Shell in return from shoulder injury

The extra days ahead of the delayed Week-15 matchup between the Seahawks and the Rams could help Seattle T Brandon Shell return from injury.

The Seattle Seahawks are looking to capitalize on the couple of extra days to prepare before facing the Rams in Los Angeles Week 15. Because of the large number of Rams on the COVID-19 list, the league opted to move the matchup from Sunday afternoon to Tuesday evening.

The additional time could actually help some players who are hoping to return from injuries, including right tackle Brandon Shell, who has sat out practice all week still battling a shoulder injury.

“The days will help him, a couple more days will help him,” Carroll said Friday after the schedule change was announced. “I can’t tell you about game day stuff or anything like that, we don’t know. Anybody that’s banged up, it’s going to help them. Both teams I’m sure.”

While practice participation statuses were announced following Friday’s walkthrough, gameday designations were not required yet since the contest has been delayed. We should know more about Shell’s chances of playing on Tuesday when the final injury report is released.

The Seattle Seahawks only had two players listed on the official injury report ahead of Week 1’s matchup against the Falcons in Atlanta: tackle Cedric Ogbuehi, who has been ruled out (pec), and wide receiver Phillip Dorsett, listed as questionable with a foot injury.

Dorsett did not participate in practice on Friday.

“He’s got a sore foot that we’re trying to get through,” coach Pete Carroll said after the walkthrough. “We rested him today, so we’ll see what happens.”

Dorsett has missed work here and there throughout the summer due to his foot but Carroll doesn’t seem to know the extent of the injury.

“I don’t know how long it’s going to be, I don’t know that,” Carroll told reporters. “We’ve got to see how he does this weekend, then we’ll just take it really one day at a time, one step at a time. Phillip had a really good camp for us, we really like him in there, so we’ll see if we can get him back for this ballgame or not, I don’t know.”

Carroll mentioned both David Moore and Freddie Swain as possible options behind Tyler Lockett and DK Metcalf on Sunday.

Seahawks to keep Quinton Dunbar ‘under wraps’ for a week or so

The Seattle Seahawks will keep cornerback Quinton Dunbar “under wraps” for a week or so as he is slowly phased into training camp practices.

The Seattle Seahawks got a welcome boost to their secondary last week when offseason acquisition, cornerback Quinton Dunbar, was removed from the NFL’s exempt list and allowed to report to Renton for training camp.

Like all players, Dunbar had to clear the COVID-19 testing protocol, which required three negative tests before he could enter the facility. He also needed to pass his physical last Friday.

Dunbar was able to do both and appeared on the field with this new teammates for the first time on Sunday. He won’t be a full participant in practice, however, for the next week or so.

“We’re going to keep him under wraps a little bit as we start these first few days with us, because he hasn’t had an offseason with us at all,” coach Pete Carroll told reporters during his virtual press conference on Monday. “But he’ll get going. Give him a week before we really get a chance to really check him out.”

Dunbar was suited up in pads on Monday and was able to participate in early drills. Expect 100% from the cornerback as early as next week.

Jadeveon Clowney not practicing fully but expected to play on Sunday

Seattle Seahawks defensive end Jadveon Clowney has yet to fully practice this week but is expected to play against the Green Bay Packers.

There’s no denying Seattle Seahawks defensive end Jadeveon Clowney has been playing through pain over the last month with a core injury . . . he’s said so himself. But that hasn’t stopped him from making major contributions on the field come gamedays.

“I thought Clowney had a big factor,” coach Pete Carroll said Wednesday. “Just his presence, his activity, it was very much reminiscent of games we’ve seen like the San Francisco game earlier. There’s been a couple of those games when he’s just a problem. Everybody’s still working and all the other guys were clawing and scratching to get there. I think that was the factor that was the difference-maker. He’s a big factor for us and we’re hoping he’s going to be there again.”

But Clowney, who opted to not undergo surgery during the season, hasn’t been able to log much practice time ahead of the recent matchups. He was a limited participant in Wednesday’s session and Carroll said he will be taking it one day at a time.

“It’s about the same as last week,” Carroll explained. “Which is a good sign because he made it.”
