RENTON, Wash. -- Seattle Seahawks left tackle Rees Odhiambo is practicing Wednesday after making what coach Pete Carroll called a "very favorable turn" from the chest injury that hospitalized him Sunday night.
Meanwhile, the team has ruled out defensive end Cliff Avril for its Week 5 game at the Los Angeles Rams because of the neck/spine injury he sustained last week. Asked if Avril's injury is a long-term issue, Carroll said, "It could be. It could be."
"Like I'm saying, we're going very slowly making sure that he takes the opportunity to talk with as many people as he needs to talk to so he knows what he's got and what we need to do with it," Carroll said.
