As the Seattle Seahawks prepare for their second-straight AFC South opponent this weekend, Pete Carroll spoke to members of the media about roster updates as well as the upcoming game against the Tennessee Titans.
Two starters for Seattle made it back to the practice field today, according to Carroll…

…But it turns out it was just Reed who practiced.
Based on exactly what Carroll had to say, it seems like things are looking good for both Lewis and Reed to play this weekend against the Titans.
Carroll was non-definitive but did sound optimistic on Lewis and Reed.
On Lewis: “He just had a little something that we had to just check out. He practiced today … He looked good. He had a good today.”
On Reed: “… he practiced today, so we’re in pretty good shape there.”

Carroll also spoke about the tragic passing of Russell Wilson’s coach and friend Trevor Moawad.
Pete Carroll says he’s talked extensively with Russell Wilson since the death of the QB’s self-described best friend and mental coach Wednesday night.
Says it is part of caring, and of the real lives players live during seasons just as you and I do. #Seahawks @thenewstribune pic.twitter.com/bXJzEpHG7x

Ending the article on a more positive note, Darrell Taylor got a chance to share his excitement to play his first game at Lumen Field, with or without fans. Hopefully he can add to the one sack he picked up last week against the Colts. Based on the performance of the Titans’ line last week, he should have a good shot to do so.
Count edge Darrell Taylor as particularly pumped for his first real #Seahawks game with fans.
“Oh, man! I can’t freakin’ wait! I hope they pack it out. And it’s the first home game? WHOOO!
“They about to pack it out. We are going to have a great time with our fans being there.” pic.twitter.com/Oc7qUiGFH6
