Hasselbeck doubtful

Posted by Chad Finn, Globe Staff December 5, 2008 05:06 PM

The Seahawks have released their Friday participation report, and it includes a couple of notable names.

Quarterback Matt Hasselbeck is listed as doubtful with a back injury, while left tackle Walter Jones (knee) is questionable.

Hasselbeck, who missed five games earlier this season with a back injury, did not practice today as backup Seneca Wallace took all of the snaps with the starters.

Hasselbeck, a former Boston College standout, was sacked seven times in the Seahawks' 34-9 loss to the Cowboys on Thanksgiving. He finished the game, but his back problems recurred during the week.

If Jones, a five-time first-team All-Pro selection, cannot play, Sean Locklear is expected to move over from right tackle. Jones did not practice all week.

Also yesterday, starting left guard Mike Wahle was placed on injured reserve with a shoulder injury.

The report:

Doubtful
QB Matt Hasselbeck (back)

Questionable
LB LeRoy Hill (neck)
T Walter Jones (knee)

Probable
DT Red Bryant (ankle)
WR Koren Robinson (knee)
S C.J. Wallace (hamstring)

  1. If Matt Hasselbeck doesn't play then are the Hasselbeck family even more inclined to support the Pats?

  1. Wow, if anyone thinks the Pats injury situation is bad, look at these guys. Losing half your offensive line is worse than losing your running back. Pats win, 37-15.

  1. The Pats lose any of the next two games and they might as well lose out and get a good draft pick...

  1. Patriots have to win now. If not, don't show up for work the next 3 weeks.
