The Seattle Seahawks made a bunch of roster moves on Tuesday in preparation for the Thursday Night Football matchup against the San Francisco 49ers. The most interesting of them was that they brought back center Lemuel Jeanpierre.
The move was necessitated by the injury on Patrick Lewis. Lewis replaced Nowak in the starting lineup last Sunday, but then injured his ankle. Lewis is unlikely to play on Thursday, so the Seahawks needed some help.
Back in training camp, Jeanpierre was locked in a tough battle with Drew Nowak for the starting center position. Nowak won, and the Seahawks elected to keep the younger Patrick Lewis as the backup.
