Seahawks get Carson, Pocic, Griffin back to face Eagles
RENTON, Wash. (AP) — The Seattle Seahawks will have starting running back Chris Carson, center Ethan Pocic and cornerback Shaquill Griffin back from injuries for Monday night’s game against the Philadelphia Eagles.
Seattle coach Pete Carroll said Saturday all three made it through the week of practice without setbacks and will play against the Eagles. Carson (foot) and Griffin (hamstring) have missed the past four games, while Pocic (concussion) has missed the past two.
Seattle’s injury report was mostly empty with right tackle Brandon Shell the only starter ruled out for Monday’s game. Shell suffered a high-ankle sprain in Week 11 against Arizona and Carroll said it’ll be the end of next week before they have a better idea when Shell may return.
Cedric Ogbuehi will start in place of Shell. Ogbuehi played 11 offensive snaps after Shell got hurt against the Cardinals. He hasn’t started a game since 2017 with Cincinnati.
Seattle’s only other injury concern of note is wide receiver David Moore, who is listed as questionable with a hip injury. Carroll said Moore felt something in his hip in practice on Friday but believes he’ll be able to play.
