Seahawks WR DK Metcalf says he played through foot injury in 2021

The third-year wideout sat down with reporter Taylor Rooks to briefly discuss the process of his rehabilitation and his current state of mind.

After posting a picture of his left foot in a protective boot on Instagram, Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf confirmed that he had played through an injury throughout the 2021 season and had surgery on his foot following its conclusion.

The third-year wideout sat down with reporter Taylor Rooks to briefly discuss the process of his rehabilitation and his current state of mind.

“I just started walking on it a couple days ago,” Metcalf said. “My rehab’s going to be like another month before I’m full go.”

Metcalf told Rooks that he kept quiet about his injury because it did not bother him enough to miss time on the field and he intended to wind down after the season ended.

“I don’t think it affected me that much. I missed a practice day a week when I found out what happened to my foot, but it really didn’t affect me that much.”

Metcalf is entering a contract year, so the Seahawks must make a decision on his future in the coming months. He will hopefully remain in the Emerald City, but he could ask for top dollar given his production over his first three seasons and we will see whether or not Seattle decides to pony up.

Pete Carroll hopes Chris Carson will be ‘full-speed, full-load’ in Week 14

Seattle Seahawks coach Pete Carroll is hoping that starting running back Chris Carson will be full-speed, full-load Week 14 against the Jets.

Seattle Seahawks Chris Carson has been easing back into the action over the last couple of weeks after suffering a foot injury that kept him watching from the sidelines. Heading into Week 14, it looks like Carson might have finally turned the corner.

The Seahawks starting running back wasn’t able to practice in full ahead of the Giants game which factored into the game-planning. Carlos Hyde, Carson’s first backup, had been battling his own injury with a sore hamstring.

Coach Pete Carroll explained the scenario during his Monday afternoon press conference.

“He feels better this week going into the week than he’s felt at any time, so I think this week is really a time we have a chance to cut him loose and he can take the full load,” Carroll said. “That hindered us a little bit in the thinking. Carlos entered the game kind of gingerly as well, so both of those guys, it affected us a little bit and unfortunately that’s just the way it went.”

The good news, however, is that things might be different this week against the Jets as both backs appear to be getting healthier.

“Chris looked really good, he handled what we did,” Carroll continued. “He came out of the game better, so in the long run of it, we’ll have him, we hope, full-speed, full-load this week.”

Seahawks RBs Chris Carson, Carlos Hyde both questionable Week 10

Seattle Seahawks running backs Chris Carson (foot) and Carlos Hyde (hamstring) are both listed as questionable Week 10 on the injury report.

The Seattle Seahawks could see the return of a couple of their running backs Week 10 against the division-rival Rams. Starter Chris Carson and backup Carlos Hyde, who have missed the two matchups due to injuries, could take the field in Los Angeles if they make it through the next few days.

Both Carson and Hyde are listed as questionable to play on Friday’s injury report.

“Carlos practiced today and got work done for the first time in a bit,” coach Pete Carroll told reporters after the walkthrough. “Chris is running today, tomorrow and gonna run on game day and see if he’s ready to go. We are waiting as long as we can to help him out.”

Carroll explained the plan to keep the backs fresh should they be called for duty on Sunday.

“We think Chris has a chance if we don’t overdo it early,” Carroll said. “So we decided not to put him on the field today. He still worked and ran and all of that. Carlos, this was a chance for him to show and he looked pretty good today.”

The Seattle Seahawks have been without running backs Chris Carson and Carlos Hyde for the last couple of outings and neither is practicing as of Wednesday, Week 10.

Both remain listed on the injury report – Carson with a sore foot and Hyde with a lingering hamstring issue.

Coach Pete Carroll provided some updates on the two to start the workweek.

“Chris is running more so than Carlos is able to at this time,” Carroll told reporters. “Chris is ahead of Carlos also coming back. He’s going to run today and tomorrow and see how he handles that. I can’t tell you anything more than that right now. I wish I could.”

To ensure depth at the running back spot ahead of the Week-10 matchup against the Rams, Seattle added former Seahawks running back Bo Scarbrough to the practice squad on Wednesday.

Seahawks running backs still banged up heading into Week 9

Seattle Seahawks Seahawks running backs Chris Carson, Carlos Hyde and Travis Homer are still banged up heading into Week 9 against the Bills.

The Seattle Seahawks were quite thin at running back Sunday but still found a way to eke out a win against the San Francisco 49ers. Starter Chris Carson (foot) and Carlos Hyde (hamstring) were both inactive and remain uncertain for Week 9 in Buffalo.

“Chris has got a sore foot,” coach Pete Carroll said Monday morning on 710 ESPN Seattle. “He’s got something going on in his foot that he’s got to get through. He feels a lot better today already. We just won’t know. We can’t tell.”

As for Hyde, the hamstring injury could very well sideline him for another week as well.

“Hamstrings usually take 10 days or something like that anyway, so we’ll see,” Carroll explained. “We won’t know until late in the week. If he overcame it late the last day or so, maybe something could have happened for the last game. It’s going to be the same way.”

Travis Homer, who ended up playing a couple of snaps against San Francisco with a knee bruise, should be back in action this Sunday.

“The fact that he made it out there – and he might be a little more sore today – he made it out there and played, so he should be ready to give us some firepower,” Carroll said.

Seahawks rookie TE Colby Parkinson practices in return from NFI list

Seattle Seahawks rookie tight end Colby Parkinson returned to practice from the Non-Football Injury List following the team’s Week-6 bye.

A few Seattle Seahawks players returned to the practice field Monday in a bonus session that marked the end of their Week 6 bye. Rookie tight end Colby Parkinson worked with his teammates after sitting out the first six weeks of the season while on the non-football injury list.

Parkinson, selected in the fourth round of this year’s draft, suffered a Jones fracture in his foot this offseason and underwent surgery in June. He can now practice with the team for three weeks before being added to the active roster or placed on injured reserve.

Coach Pete Carroll was impressed with the rookie’s first day on the field.

“He had a good first day, he had a really good first day,” Carroll told reporters. “We’ll just see what happens, see where it fits into the mix as we go. He’s a really smart kid, he’s been studying like crazy and I don’t think it’ll take him long to know his assignments and all that, but technique-wise and technically he’s going to have to show that he’s come a long ways before we can figure that he can help us or not.”

Parkinson has competition with four other tight ends on the active roster: Will Dissly, Jacob Hollister, Greg Olsen and Luke Willson.

Parkinson and the rest of the Seahawks return to practice Wednesday to prepare to take on the Cardinals in Arizona.

2 Seahawks rookies who might not be healthy by season opener

The Seattle Seahawks could be without two rookies for their season opener – tight end Colby Parkinson and defensive end Darrell Taylor.

The Seattle Seahawks open their regular season in Atlanta in just under two weeks but could be without a couple of rookies who are still dealing with injuries that could keep them on the bench.

Tight end Colby Parkinson has been held up since the offseason following surgery on his foot but could return in time for the first game of the season.

“It’s possible,” coach Pete Carroll said Sunday. “This week coming up is really important. If we can get him back this week, then obviously that’ll be a positive step for him, but I don’t know that yet.”

Carroll also provided an update on defensive end Darrell Taylor, who is recovering from leg surgery to repair a fracture, but is a bit further behind and could be out for a couple of weeks longer.

“It’s going to hard for him to make the opener,” Carroll confirmed. “He’s going for it, but we’ve got to get him on ground running more than he has so far. He was away for the couple of days with the birth of his daughter, but he’s steeped in rehab right now trying to get him right.”

The Seahawks have an off day Monday but resume practice on Tuesday.

Receivers Dorsett, Thompson and Ursua could return to practice Tuesday

Seattle Seahawks wide receivers Phillip Dorsett II, Cody Thompson and John Ursua could return to practice from injuries as soon as Tuesday.

The Seahawks have been down a few wide receivers over the last few days as the players battled some minor injuries. All three – Phillip Dorsett II, Cody Thompson and John Ursua – could all come back as soon as Tuesday following Seattle’s off day.

“Phillip, if everything goes right over this one-day break, he’s going to be back in a limited fashion,” coach Pete Carroll told reporters after the team’s mock game on Sunday.

Dorsett has been suffering from a sore foot but the injury does not appear to be a new issue, according to Carroll.

“Phil, we’re going to have to figure out how he handles it,” Carroll continued. “We know what his condition is and his situation with the sore foot, we’ve just got to manage him really well.”

Carroll said both Thompson and Ursua also have a chance to return on Tuesday but did not provide further specifics.
