Good thing for the Seahawks Tedric Thompson is back.
On the same day their starting safety returned to practice from an ankle injury that kept Thompson out of last weekend’s regular-season finale, the team put safety Delano Hill on injured reserve.
The Seahawks’ medical staff found a non-displaced fracture of Hill’s hip following his start against the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday, coach Pete Carroll said Tuesday.
The 2017 draft choice was the starting strong safety with Bradley McDougald moving to free safety for Thompson against the Cardinals. Hill has also been the sixth, “dime” defensive back for the defense in obvious passing situations this season.
