The Seattle Seahawks lose LeRoy Hill for a while

Blogged under Bloglockers,Front Page,General Hawks Squawk,Injury Reports by admin on Tuesday 15 September 2009 at 6:38 pm

The Seahawks will be without starting OLB LeRoy Hill for at least the next couple of weeks due to a groin injury.  Hill had 2 tackles against the Rams in the season opener before he was injured.  Hill has now played in 57 games in his NFL career and he has made 331 tackles, has 13.5 sacks, he has defensed 11 passes and forced six fumbles.  Hill will be replaced by D.D. Lewis in the starting lineup.  Lewis played in 14 games (2 starts) for the Seahawks last season and he made 45 tackles.  The Seahawks will miss Hill’s big play ability while he is out.

UPDATE:  Hill will now miss at least the next six weeks and his groin could require surgery which would keep him out a lot longer.  This is a big loss for the Seahawks.
