RENTON — Seahawks coach Pete Carroll offered injury updates, what the NFL said about a hit on Russell Wilson Sunday and more during his weekly press conference Wednesday.

NFL confirms penalty should have been called on Dupree hit on Wilson

Carroll said the Seahawks have been told that the officials did indeed miss what should have been a personal foul for an illegal hit on Wilson by Bud Dupree in Sunday’s game.

“They assessed that if they did it again they should have called it,’’ Carroll said.

Dupree told the media in Pittsburgh Wednesday that he is not expecting to be fined since he hadn’t heard yet that he has been — players can be fined even if penalties are not called — and also that he apologized to Wilson.
