RENTON,China Jerseys Cheap, Wash. (AP) — With an important matchup against the NFC West-leading Arizona Cardinals approaching on Sunday, the Seattle Seahawks are set to get a boost defensively with the return of middle linebacker Bobby Wagner to the lineup.
"I feel good. I'm very excited to play. I've had a great week of practice and I'm just looking forward to getting back out there and competing with the guys," he said.
"He's made it through,Cheap Jerseys Wholesale," Carroll said. "We're adjusting the days (of practice) as we need to to accommodate and he got through it fine and he looks like he's ready."
Wagner had to have his foot in a cast for two weeks with his toe curled to allow the tendon to heal naturally,Cheap China NFL Jerseys. Then an additional three weeks were required for rehab before he was able to return to the practice field this week.
"Bobby is going to play. We're really excited to have him back," coach Pete Carroll said.
The Seahawks officially ruled out Unger, linebacker Kevin Pierre-Louis (shoulder) and cornerback Marcus Burley (hamstring). Defensive end Demarcus Dobbs is doubtful with a knee injury and guard James Carpenter will be a game-time decision after being held out of practice on Friday.

He's under contract next year. We'll be thrilled to have him playing for us next year. So we'll do everything we can to get that done."
Carroll also took the opportunity to speak regarding questions that Lynch may not be back with the Seahawks next season.
"He came back really sharp," Carroll said. "(It was) surprising that he was able to retain so much but he was on it. He's very confident and demonstrated that, so he's ready to go." |
