Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll provided some updates on several injured players, one of whom is ready to return to practice for the first time since December.
Linebacker Jon Rhattigan, who was a special teams standout as a UDFA rookie last season, has been designated for return to practice. Rhattigan tore his ACL in December and started this season on the reserve/PUP list. He can practice for up to 21 days before a decision is made on whether he will be moved to the 53-man roster. Given the season-ending injury to Cullen Gillaspia, Rhattigan’s return will be a welcome one for the special teams group.
