Burleson may be done for the year

Nate Burleson has a high ankle sprain and may not play again this season for the Seahawks.

Coach Jim Mora said Wednesday that Burleson is out for Sunday's game against Tampa Bay.

Mora says the team has a decision to make on what they want to do with him over the final three games of the season. He could end up on injured reserve to clear a roster spot.

Burleson was injured by a helmet to his ankle on a punt return Sunday at Houston. He kept playing, caught a sideline pass and then hobbled off the field for good.

Damn.

Seahawks RB Julius Jones has bleeding in his lung stemming from a broken rib and was kept at an Arizona hospital overnight.

Nov 15, 2009 - Seahawk's RB Julius Jones left the game against the Cardinals' early with an apparant rib injury. The Seattle Times' Danny O'Neil reported that Julius Jones has suffered a broken rib and would be kept overnight in an Arizona hopsital for observation. Then at 7 p.m. PT, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that the situation is even more serious:

Seahawks RB Julius Jones has bleeding in his lung and was kept at an Arizona hospital while team returned to Seattle.

Pray hard for our running back.

PSN/Xbox Live

PSN/Xbox Live

Hey guys, not sure if this is a cool thing to Fan Shot or not, but I'm sure there are a few gamers in here, and with Modern Warfare 2 coming out, it would be great to be able to clan up with your fellow Seahawk nuts, talk shop, and take out some aggression/disappointment against the unwashed masses of people who aren't Seahawk fans. So post your gamer tags if you're interested. I'm on PSN (I love Live, but I've already been through one 360, and am not ready to commit several hundred bucks to another one) and my tag is xWarBunny.

Notes From a 12 Man: A Truly Biased History of the Seattle Seahawks

I just started reading this book last night, and can't put it down. Anyone who frequents this website will find this book incredibly entertaining. For those of you who are newcomers to Hawkville, and don't remember watching Curt Warner, John L. Williams, Kenny Easley, or the ferocious Tez, you'll get some much-needed history on our beloved team. Great read.

Louis Rankin Added to Practice Squad; Devin Moore Released

Northwest Football Net:

The Seattle Seahawks made a few roster moves on Tuesday, including signing former University of Washington running back Louis Rankin to their practice squad.

Running back Devin Moore and linebacker Thomas Williams were released from the practice squad, leaving the Seahawks with one open spot.

Very nice. He was great against us in the preseason, I definitely think he has more pro potential than Devin Moore, and probably more to offer at this point than Edge. Suit up, young man.

Seattle to wear green alternates against the Bears?

“The Seahawks will unveil their bright green — I guess ’80s retro-ish green uniforms — It’ll be a ‘Green Day’. I think they’ll have the time of their lives.”

So says Chris Berman on "2 Minute Drill." I'm not a fan of the green uniforms, and I am even less of a fan of we have to wear them while bombarded with injuries and facing a team that could quite possibly slap us around. We'll have to wait and see, I guess.

Kyle Williams released

Kyle Williams released

We also signed Brandon Frye, a tackle formerly with Miami. Kevin Hobbs landed in Detroit and Marquis Floyd was signed by Cleveland.

The Lions must be desperate or stupid. Kevin Hobbs has been absolutely terrible this preseason

Walter Jones leaves practice with back problems.

What's with the back issues this year?

Brian Russell "secure at safety"

Wayward Llama — Tue, 04 Aug 2009 12:21:10 -0000

NOOOOOOOO

I guess Babs didn't put up that much of a challenge, as Brian Russell took his P12 aluminum oxide-style grit to Babineaux's thrown gauntlet in only a few days. In a way, this is unsurprising, knowing how Ruskell values "field generals," but you would think that there would be enough discontent with the safety positionfor the GM to take action. Let's just hope they don't leave Russell deep in cover-1.

Sigh.
