With the Seahawks expected to be without CB Josh Wilson (concussion) on Sunday, coach Jim Mora says that Kelly Jennings will start in his place.
Wilson has been starting at right corner opposite Marcus Trufant, where Jennings will now fill in. This is a very favorable matchup for Brett Favre and the Vikings' passing game.
The Seahawks are expected to be without CB Josh Wilson (concussion) in Week 11 against the Vikings.
It looks like Marcus Trufant will play through his concussion, but Wilson's will keep him out. Wilson had been starting at right corner, where Ken Lucas will now fill in. This is a favorable matchup for the Minnesota passing game.

Seahawks coach Jim Mora confirmed that TE John Carlson's role in the passing game is declining.
Carlson has been kept in to block more of late, the Seahawks are starting to use four-wide sets, and they've leaned heavily on the screen game. Carlson will need to pitch in against pass rusher Jared Allen Sunday, so he remains a poor bet as a TE1.

Matt Hasselbeck (ribs, shoulder) practiced fully on a Wednesday for the first time since Week 8.
It's a good sign that Hasselbeck is getting healthier as the season goes on. He's thrown for over 300 yards in two straight games as the Seahawks have gone pass heavy. Considering they are facing a tough Vikings' front seven without Julius Jones this week, expect another 35-40 attempts. New starting running back Justin Forsett excels in all facets of the passing game as well.

Matt Hasselbeck completed 26-of-52 for 315 yards, one touchdown, and two interceptions against the Cardinals in Week 10.
Seattle went pass-heavy for a second straight week, and Hasselbeck staked the team to a 14-0 lead in the first quarter. It was a different story in the second half, though, as Hasselbeck was harassed and largely shut down. After a second straight 300-yard performance, he's a borderline QB1 at Minnesota next week.
The Seahawks will reinsert Sean Locklear at left tackle this week.
Damion McIntosh played well on Matt Hasselbeck's blind side against Detroit last week, but Locklear is Seattle's best option with Walter Jones gone for the year. He'll square off with Cardinals ROLB Bertrand Berry on Sunday.

Seahawks coach Jim Mora has ruled out Julius Jones (ribs, lung) for Week 11 at Minnesota.
"He won't be available Sunday," Mora said. "We'll see how he progresses. Hopefully (he'll be back) next week. We have to be careful." Jones is averaging just 3.7 yards per carry and Minnesota ranks sixth in run defense, so he wasn't going to be productive anyway. Justin Forsett will be pulled off returns, but start the game at tailback and try to make a case for a more significant role going forward. Seattle plays the Rams in Week 12.
