Safety Deon Grant suffered a hand/wrist injury during Sunday’s loss, and is scheduled to see a specialist tomorrow, Seahawks coach Jim Mora said Monday.
Mora said the injury appears to be a ligament issue, and that “it is something that could pose a problem.”
If Grant can’t play, the Seahawks backup safeties are Lawyer Milloy and Jamar Adams.
Running back Julius Jones, who missed Sunday’s game with a bruised lung, is expected to be back on the field when the team returns to practice Wednesday. Mora said they’ll have to ease him back into things because Jones wasn’t able to do much in the way of conditioning while he was out. Assuming Jones can play Sunday, he will be the starter.
Cornerback Josh Wilson, who was out with a concussion, is also expected to return this week.
Finally, an apology to those who follow this blog for the lack of content yesterday. As I mentioned before I was dealing with some computer issues in Minneapolis. And along those lines, I owe a huge thanks to the very helpful Vikings PR folks who lent me a computer for the day.
