Seahawks Won't Have Rice Against Eagles

Aug 8, 2014 7:59 AM

The Seahawks will not have wide receiver Sidney Rice for Thursday night's game against the Eagles. Rice suffered a concussion on Sunday, his second head injury in three games. "We spread it more," coach Pete Carroll said of the offense. "Mike [Williams] has had some opportunities here in the last couple weeks that we didn't capitalize on. We're still going to him. We've given him a lot of balls and all. Just unfortunately, the numbers aren't working out."

Oct 31, 2014 3:43 PM

Seahawks strong safety Kam Chancellor says he isn't worried that he will develop a reputation as a headhunter. A league source claims that Chancellor was fined $40,000 for a helmet-to-helmet hit on Rams tight end Lance Kendricks last Sunday. According to the source, the league viewed Chancellor as a repeat offender. Chancellor wouldn't confirm whether he'd been fined for the second hit, but acknowledged he had heard from the league and plans to appeal.

Tarvaris Jackson Gives Himself An 'F' As Seattle's Starter

Oct 9, 2014 2:49 PM

Seahawks quarterback Tarvaris Jackson is not happy with his short tenure as the team's starter. "We're a 2-5 team, and a quarterback's (job) is to help the team win as much as possible," Jackson said. "We've still got a lot of work to do, but 2-5 is failing. So I guess I got an F right now." Jackson, who missed the Cleveland game with a left pectoral injury, is technically 2-3 as a starter. He averaged 176 passing yards in his first three contests and 269 in the past three. "We're getting better," Jackson said. "We're growing, and I'm feeling more and more comfortable each week. And the guys are feeling more and more comfortable in me. And the coach is gaining more trust in me. "So that's good. My whole thing is I'm always about wins. That's what I really pride myself in, and that's what all quarterbacks should be judged on. That's what I want to be judged on, so right now 2-5 is not going to get the job done."
