The Seahawks appear to have come out of Sunday’s game with no significant new injuries, which is especially good news for a team playing on Thursday this week. Receivers Jermaine Kearse and Ricardo Lockette both needed attention from trainers at one point, but returned to the game and were OK, Seahawks coach Pete Carroll said.
The only injury, according to Carroll was tight end Cooper Helfet turning his ankle on a catch late in the game. Helfet was on his feet doing interviews after the game with nothing on his ankle, which could be a sign that the injury isn’t too serious.
Marshawn Lynch missed two series early in the game, and while it was announced in the press box that his absence was related to a back injury, Carroll clarified that Lynch was “sick to his stomach. He was about ready to throw up over on the sidelines, so he had to wait it out.”
