Though his status still uncertain, QB Russell Wilson (calf) was on the field for Friday’s practice, 48 hours ahead of their season opener against the Atlanta Falcons.
Local radio station 93.7 The Fan shared clips of Wilson in helmet and pads getting in some throws throughout the session. It’s not clear if he was a full participant and went through the team period, though other reporting hinted that Justin Fields received first-team reps.

ESPN’s Brooke Pryor noted that during individual period, Fields worked with the starting wide receivers while Wilson was on the side throwing to rookie WR Roman Wilson, still recovering from a July ankle injury.
