Bennett, Avril, Lockett among 5 Seahawks to undergo Regenokine

RENTON -- Seahawks starters Michael Bennett, Cliff Avril, Luke Joeckel, Tyler Lockett and Michael Wilhoite will miss practice this week, and Thursday's preseason finale, to undergo Regenokine, coach Pete Carroll announced Monday afternoon.

Carroll said there isn't any particular concern surrounding any individual player, and the procedure is primarily to ensure full strength by the Sept. 10 season opener at Green Bay. All five guys are expected to return before then.

If Regenokine sounds familiar that's because it's the same procedure linebacker K.J. Wright had performed on his knee during the week leading up to Seattle's preseason home opener against the Vikings on Aug.
