The Seattle Seahawks held another training camp practice yesterday at the VMAC.

Here are some injury updates from the team’s beat reporters and head coach Pete Carroll, who spoke with them after practice.

The biggest item of the day was the return of linebacker Jordyn Brooks, who has been on the PUP list since the start of training camp due to the ACL injury he suffered in Week 17. Brooks cleared his physical, which means he’s clear to return to the active roster.

However, Brooks is only allowed to participate in walk-throughs right now and his status for Week 1’s game against the Rams is still uncertain.

The other major injury update concerns cornerback Devon Witherspoon, Seattle’s fifth overall pick in the draft. Witherspoon is still out after re-aggravating the hamstring injury that he brought over from his time with Illinois. Carroll told reporters Witherspoon is running again but is still not ready to return.

Meanwhile, Jalen Carter has hit the ground running in Philadelphia, showing his awesome disruptive power in just one snap against the Ravens. It’s still too early to call this a missed opportunity, but it’s not looking good.

Seattle’s wide receiver corps got dinged up in last Thursday night’s preseason game against Minnesota, but some of them are getting better. Wide receivers Dareke Young and Cody Thompson both returned to practice yesterday.

While talking about Brooks coach Carroll also gave the media an update on strong safety Jamal Adams, who remains on the PUP list with the quad injury he suffered in Week 1 last season. Carroll says Adams is still further behind Brooks for his expected return.
