Why Clark Expects Geno Smith and the Seahawks to Bounce Back
Ryan Clark shares his predictions for this week’s game, explaining why he believes Geno Smith and the Seattle Seahawks will defeat the Arizona Cardinals.
The Seattle Seahawks could potentially face challenges on offense when they face the visiting Arizona Cardinals on Sunday.
One concern is the health of wide receiver DK Metcalf, who is currently dealing with hip and rib injuries. According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the Seahawks will make a decision on his availability during pregame warmups. Additionally, backup running back Zach Charbonnet is unlikely to play due to a hamstring injury.
Both Metcalf and Charbonnet are listed as questionable for the game.
Metcalf has played in the past two weeks despite being listed as questionable with a rib injury. However, there are greater concerns about his availability this week. Sources indicate that he missed practice all week but participated in a limited session on Friday.
Charbonnet, the team’s second-round pick in April, did not practice at all this week. Although Seahawks coach Pete Carroll stated that the hamstring injury is not serious, he acknowledged that it could impact a running back’s performance.
In Charbonnet’s absence, DeeJay Dallas is expected to take on the role of Seattle’s No. 2 running back behind Kenneth Walker III, according to insider sources.
