That’s 13 players (Harvin doesn’t count anymore) 12 players listed on the injury report for Week 7. Last season the Seahawks were among the healthiest teams in the league all year.
Second year center Stephen Schilling will start for Max Unger again. The Bellevue High School graduate played well against the Cowboys and will have another tough matchup against the Rams defensive line.
K.J. Wright will fill in at MLB for Bobby Wagner who’s suffering from turf toe.
Notes:
Last season the Seahawks won both games they played against the Rams. In Seattle they won easily, 27-9, while the game in St. Louis was one of the toughest matchups they played all season.
The Hawks walked away winners, 14-9, but were held to one of their worst offensive performances all season.
Marshawn Lynch led the team with 29 rushing yards and Russell Wilson threw for just 139 yards and 2 TD’s, both to Golden Tate.
