Overview
- Head coach Mike Macdonald said Christian Haynes will start at left guard if Grey Zabel is not ready to play against the Titans.
- Zabel, who injured his left knee late in the Week 11 loss to the Rams, was held out Wednesday and is considered day-to-day after tests showed no major damage.
- Zabel took part in the open portion of Thursday’s practice, signaling progress four days after the injury.
- Haynes replaced Zabel for 10 snaps against Los Angeles, allowing one pressure and no sacks, and has been practicing at both guard spots and center after returning from a preseason pectoral injury.
- Seattle also noted roster updates this week, with nose tackle Johnathan Hankins out for the season and rookie Rylie Mills nearing a return to practice, while Tory Horton, Tyrice Knight and Robbie Ouzts did not practice Wednesday.
