Mora: Don't expect Hasselbeck on Sunday

Sep 30, 2009

The Seahawks are planning to be without quarterback Matt Hasselbeck and best blocker Walter Jones again on Sunday.
Coach Jim Mora said Wednesday he does not expect his three-time Pro Bowl passer or his nine-time Pro Bowl left tackle to play at the undefeated Indianapolis Colts.
The 34-year-old Hasselbeck, who broke a rib 10 days ago, still can't run and still has pain when he takes a deep breath.
Mora says he doesn't know for sure if Jones will play at all this season. The team will back off pushing the 35-year-old Jones through practice this week. Jones had his second knee surgery in nine months in August.
Seattle (1-2) does expect to have linebacker Lofa Tatupu back from a hamstring injury against the Colts.

“I will be playing on Sunday. Very excited, can’t pass up playing the Packers. I will be out there for sure.”

George Kittle says he’s good to go for Sunday

Fantasy Impact:

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
