Kam Chancellor, who is Seattle’s one injury concern heading into the Super Bowl having suffered some sort of knee injury in Friday’s practice, is active for today’s game. Chancellor went through a pregame workout with a couple coaches and team doctors looking on, and while he was wearing a brace on his knee, he appeared to be moving around just fine.
Chancellor being active means neither team has an injury-related inactive in today’s game—New England center Bryan Stork was originally listed as questionable then later upgraded to probable, and will play.
Garry Gilliam, who caught a touchdown pass on a fake field goal in the NFC championship game, is inactive, so there will be no postseason heroics from the rookie tackle today.
Also noteworthy, DT Landon Cohen is active again, meaning he’ll go from not playing in the entire regular season—he was cut by Buffalo after training camp, to appearing in both the NFC championship game and the Super Bowl.
The conditions look just about perfect with the roof open and the sun shining through. It’s a nice change of pace after an unusually rainy week in Phoenix.
As was the case in Phoenix most of the week, it appears to be a very pro-Seahawks crowd here in University of Phoenix Stadium, so this might feel like something of a home crowd for Seattle.
Seahawks inactives: QB B.J. Daniels, CB Marcus Burley, C Patrick Lewis, G Keavon Milton, DE David King, T Garry Gilliam, WR Kevin Norwood.
Patriots inactives: RB James White, RB Jonas Gray, T Jordan Devey, DL Joe Vellano, WR Josh Boyce, WR Brian Tyms, DL Zach Moore.
