The Seahawks have lost 27-year old WR Mike Williams for the rest of the season due to a fractured ankle and broken fibula.  Williams played in 11 games for the Seahawks this year and he caught 16 passes for 205 yards (12.8 avg) with 1 TD grab.  He has now played in 25 games in his first two years with the Seahawks and he has caught 81 passes for 956 yards (11.8 avg) with 3 TD grabs.  It will be interesting to see if head coach Pete Carroll will want to bring back his old college WR for the 2012 season.

The Seahawks have placed 24-year old rookie CB Ron Parker on the Injured Reserve List due to an undisclosed injury.  Parker played in 2 games for the Seahawks this year but he didn’t make any tackles.  He played in 5 games overall with the Raiders & Seahawks last year but he didn’t have any tackles.  This is no loss for the Seahawks.

The Seattle Seahawks have placed 24-year old, starting LT Russell Okung on the Injured Reserve List, ending his season due to a torn left pectoral muscle.  He was injured in the game last Thursday against the Eagles.  He played in 12 games (all starts) for the Seahawks this year.  He has now played in 22 games (all starts) in his first two years in the NFL.  This is a big loss for the Seahawks, as Tarvaris Jackson might want to start looking over his shoulder when dropping back to pass.

The Seahawks have placed 25-year old WR Sidney Rice on the Injured Reserve List due to a nasty concussion.  Rice played in 9 games in his first year with the Seahawks and he caught 32 passes for 484 yards (15.1 avg) with 2 TD grabs.  He has now played in 57 games in his first five years in the NFL and he has caught 178 passes for 2,613 (14.7 avg) with 20 TD catches.  Rice was a solid player with the Vikings, so you would have to hope that he picks up the pace next year for the Seahawks.

The Seattle Seahawks have placed 25-year old David Vobora on the Injured Reserve List, ending his season due to a shoulder injury.  Vobora played in 6 games for the Seahawks this year but he didn’t have any tackles.  Vobora has now played in 40 games in his first four years in the NFL and he has 98 tackles, 2 sacks, 5 tackles for a loss, 1 forced fumble and 2 passes defensed.  The Seahawks have claimed 23-year old, undrafted rookie Adrian Moten off waivers from the Indianapolis Colts.  Moten played in 10 games for the Colts this year and he had 7 tackles.

The Seahawks have lost 22-year old rookie OT James Carpenter for the rest of the year as he tore his ACL at practice yesterday.  Carpenter played in 9 games (all starts) for the Seahawks this year.  26-year old Breno Giacomini will take over in the starting lineup for Carpenter.  He has played in 8 games (1 start) for the Seahawks so far this year.  He has now played in 9 games (1 starts) in his first four years in the NFL.  This is another big blow to the offensive line of the Seahawks.

The Seahawks will be without 25-year old, rookie starting guard John Moffitt for the rest of the season.  He needs surgery to repair a right knee injury.  Moffitt played in 9 games (all starts) for the Seahawks this year.  The Seahawks are going to need first year player Lemuel Jeanpierre to step up in Moffitt’s old spot.  He has played in 9 games (1 start) for the Seahawks so far this year.

The Seahawks have placed 23-year old rookie WR Kris Durham on the Injured Reserve List, due to a shoulder injury.  Durham played in 3 games for the Seahawks this year and he caught 3 passes for 30 yards (10.0 avg).  He was a 4th round pick out of Georgia last April, but he has been passed up by a lot of WRs this season.  It will be interesting to see how much of a future Durham has with the Seahawks.

The Seahawks have lost 24-year old cornerback Walter Thurmond for the rest of the season due to a cracked right fibula.  Thurmond played in 6 games for the Seahawks in 2011 and he had 12 tackles, 2 passes defensed and 1 forced fumble.  He has now played in 20 games in his first two years with the Seahawks and he has 49 tackles, 1 forced fumble and 9 passes defensed.  The Seahawks are getting awfully thin at cornerback after this injury.

The Seahawks have placed 30-year old cornerback Marcus Trufant on Injured Reserve with a back injury, ending his season.  Trufant played in 4 games for the Seahawks this year and he had 23 tackles, 1 interception, 3 passes defensed and 1 interception.  He has now played in 124 games in his first 9 years with the Seahawks and he has 612 tackles, 2 sacks, 4 forced fumbles, 5 fumble recoveries, 21 interceptions (2 returned for TDs), 109 passes defensed and 14 tackles for a loss.  24-year old Walter Thurmond will take over for Marcus Trufant at CB.  Thurmond has played in all five games for the Seahawks so far this year and he has 10 tackles, 1 forced fumble and 2 passes defensed.  He has now played in 19 games in his first two years with the Seahawks and he has 47 tackles, 1 forced fumble and 9 passes defensed.  The Seahawks are already giving up 268.2 yards passing per game, so Trufant’s injury certainly isn’t going to help the pass defense going forward.
