The Seattle Seahawks are expected to give Eddie Lacy a larger role on offense this Sunday against the Washington Redskins.

Seattle acquired Duane Brown via trade this week and Pete Carroll is also hoping that choosing a lead back will help get the team's running game going.

"I don't feel like we have been in a rhythm," Carroll said. "I think I've held them back a little bit by spreading it around quite a bit and trying to figure that out. So as we zero in the second half [of the season] hopefully we are going to make some headway."
