Another Seahawks injury

RENTON — The Seattle Seahawks have already had 15 starters miss a game due to injury, and center Chris Spencer could be added to that list this week.

Coach Mike Holmgren said that ongoing back pain could keep Spencer off the field for Thursday’s game against the Dallas Cowboys. Spencer is not expected to practice today, and Steve Vallos could fill in as the starter on Thursday.

Holmgren added that left guard Mike Wahle is likely to miss his second consecutive game due to a shoulder injury.
