RENTON — Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Deion Branch has a bruised heel, coach Mike Holmgren said Monday.

Holmgren did not have a timetable for Branch’s return, but he did say it was a painful injury.

Holmgren also said that quarterback Matt Hasselbeck is “OK” after hurting his knee in Sunday’s 44-6 loss to the New York Giants.
