The Seahawks held four players from practice on Wednesday, the team’s second workout of the week as it readies for Sunday’s road game against the Carolina Panthers.
Linebacker K.J. Wright (knee), wideout Doug Baldwin (groin), defensive end Dion Jordan (knee), and cornerback Justin Coleman (not injury related) did not participate in practice Wednesday. Safeties Delano Hill (quadriceps) and Bradley McDougald (knee) were limited, as were defensive tackle Shamar Stephen (foot), guard D.J. Fluker (knee), and running back Mike Davis (knee).
On Wright, who was held out of last week’s game against Green Bay, Seattle head coach Pete Carroll offered “he’s working his way back” when asked about Wright’s status on Tuesday. Baldwin, meanwhile, was held out of Wednesday’s workout but prior to Tuesday’s practice Carroll said the receiver heads into the Week 12 matchup against Carolina feeling “the best he’s felt.”
“He feels great,” Carroll said of Baldwin on Tuesday. “He really feels great and I talked to him this morning. He really feels the best he’s felt. He really doesn’t have any concerns right now at all so he’s practicing hard and working hard and really energized by that.”
The Seahawks are off Thursday for Thanksgiving and will return to work for a Friday practice before boarding a plane for Charlotte Friday afternoon.
