Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett survived a fractured hand and subsequent surgery to only miss one game, but now, it’s a new injury that could potentially keep him off of the field this week against the Los Angeles Rams.
Lockett suffered a leg contusion on Sunday in the Seahawks’ win over the Jets and struggled to return to the action. He was listed on the first practice report of the week with a shin injury.
“He’s still sore, we’re going to hold him out today,” coach Pete Carroll told reporters on Wednesday. “He won’t be able to go today. It’ll be a day-to-day thing for him as far as practice, but I know he’s determined to play.”
A seasoned veteran, clearly Lockett doesn’t need the practice time before facing off against the Rams and we should know his gameday status by Friday afternoon.
