Per Aaron Levine at Q13, Russell Okung has a torn labrum that is said to be "significant". He suffered the injury against Denver. Might explain some of the struggles.

Justin Britt and Garry Gilliam, meet Mr. Quinn.

Always been curious what Bailey has at LT. I wish he would have played there instead of Mcquistan last year but maybe he hadn't fully grasped everything yet. I wonder if he was 100% healthy if he would be playing right now.

 

[Cave_Johnson]

Fuuuuuuuuck. Sure would be nice to get Miller and Unger back next week. Otherwise the offensive line is going to resemble Swiss cheese against that Rams D.

 

[BloodType49]

Something doesn't seem to be clicking with the Rams D Line this year, they have a whopping 1 sack this season. Seeing how the 49er's O line holds up tonight should give you guys some indication of what you are up for, as our pass pro has been quite dreadful this season.

 

[HaroldSeattle]

Oh man, that explains so much. I hope Baily can be up to the job, be it left or right tackle.

 

[BSUSeahawk]

Carroll downplayed it in his presser, and said that he's "fine" going forward.

 

[BSUSeahawk]

Wagner, on the other hand, is battling turf toe, and Pete didn't sound nearly as optimistic.

 

[SeattleCoug]

Yea the Wagner situation seems a bit ominous right now. At least we are still ok with KJ in the middle and Smith and Irvin outside. Secondary seems a little dicey. Theres a chance Simon and/or Maxwell can play this week but also a good chance neither can go.

Injuries are getting me worried. The one to Okung being foremost. One injury not being brought up is the one Kam is battling. You could see on the sidelines he wasn't doing good IMO.

This is why it's so dam tough to stay on top in the NFL... Things happen, injuries happen... Were pretty dinged up in allot of areas... Kam is also a shadow of what he was right now... Not nearly as aggressive as were used to seeing... Obviously he's in some pain.. Our O-line is also once again in bad shape... Any word on Maxwell ? Man we need him...

Calf strain. 2-4 weeks is what I've heard thrown around.

Man... Well at least it's not a major injury and he'll be back soon enough...

 

[Sharkonabicycle]

NFL pretty much screwed us over with the early bye and ridiculous up front schedule.

They didn't want Seattle to repeat.

[jerseyhawksfan79]

I thought Okung was his own agent? I'm guessing Seattle's offer either wasn't to his satisfaction or he's going to use it and try to pry more money out of another team and if that doesn't work then re-sign with Seattle. Curious to what Seattle offered him.

 

[Sharkonabicycle]

If that's the case hopefully we snag Penn on a low cost deal.... something to plug and play until we can groom. Or we just have to bite the bullet and draft late 1st or trade up using our 3rd (UGH) and hope that OT pans out.
