For the second-straight week, the Seattle Seahawks will prepare for an opponent without knowing if running back Marshawn Lynch will be available to play.
The 29-year-old suffered a hamstring injury in the Hawks' Week 3 win over the Chicago Bears and was ruled out of Monday's 13-10 victory over the Detroit Lions on "Monday Night Football" on Sunday. It was the first game Lynch missed for Seattle since 2011.
On Wednesday, head coach Pete Carroll said a decision on Lynch's availability for Sunday's game at Cincinnati against the undefeated Bengals would likely come much later in the week.
