There’s a bit of good news and not-so-good news coming out of the Seattle Seahawks’ Monday practice.
On the positive side, running backs Jadarian Price and Jacardia Wright are back in pads and practicing in team drills. The potentially bad news? Second-year wide receiver Tory Horton, who missed the back-half of last season with a crackted tibia, was not part of Monday’s session at VMAC.
Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald didn’t have much to offer in terms of injury specifics for Horton or anyone else.
“Tory’s working through some things,” Macdonald said at Monday’s press conference. “Yeah, not a lot of updates on the injury front right now, but they had a couple guys down today.”
Horton did not play in Saturday’s preseason loss versus the Dallas Cowboys, although it’s unknown whether that’s injury related or if he’s enough of a key offensive component to not be risked for a game. Dating back to his final season at Colorado State, he’s had consecutive seasons end prematurely due to leg injuries.
And yet, Horton’s training camp has been encouraging up until this point. Having had offseason surgery, Horton did not participate in OTAs or mandatory minicamp, but was ready for Day 1 of training camp. This is only the second practice he’s missed since late July, so hopefully this is just being cautious instead of anything more serious than that.
