While there are certainly some concerns on the Seattle Seahawks injury report for Sunday’s bout with the Green Bay Packers, one encouraging sign is the absence of star defensive end Jadeveon Clowney.
Clowney is not only off the injury report, but coach Pete Carroll reported he is continuing to feel better each day – a great sign he is putting the core muscle injury behind him and reaching his full strength at a key time for the Seahawks.
“As the week progressed he felt much better than he did last week so he’s in good shape and ready to go,” Carroll said on Friday. “We’re excited about that. Really certain about his return, so he’s in good shape to go.”
Clowney has been dealing with a sports hernia related injury since November, but he has managed to play in each of the last two games and had a huge impact against the Eagles in Philadelphia, recording five solo tackles and one sack.
His presence will be one of the most important aspects of Sunday’s battle against Aaron Rodgers and the Packers, which kicks off at 3:40 p.m. PT.
