Seahawks LB K.J. Wright makes ‘marvelous return’ from shoulder surgery

Seattle Seahawks linebacker K.J. Wright made a ‘marvelous return’ from shoulder surgery and will not start training camp on the PUP list.

The Seattle Seahawks saw the healthy return of one of their starting linebackers at Wednesday’s practice. K. J. Wright, who underwent shoulder surgery during the offseason, was on the field with his teammates.

“It’s a marvelous return,” coach Pete Carroll said during his virtual press conference after the session. “He’s raring to go. We anticipated that he could quite likely go on PUP (Physically Unable to Perform list), he cleared his physical with flying colors. We’ll still look after him and take care of him, but he’s in great shape.”

The Seahawks have yet to have a fully-padded practice and Wright could likely be limited in contact drills to start.

But with no preseason games and the regular-season opener still over a month away, Wright will hopefully have enough time to fully recover ahead of his 2020 campaign.
