The Seahawks say there remains a chance that Bradley Sowell will play Sunday against the Saints. If not, rookie George Fant will get his first start at left tackle.
While Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson was declared healthy enough that the team didn’t bother to put him on the injury status report for Sunday’s game against New Orleans, who will protect his blind side against the Saints remains in question.
The most likely scenario is that rookie George Fant — an undrafted drafted free agent who was a basketball star at Western Kentucky University before turning to football as a fifth-year senior — will get the start with Bradley Sowell nursing a sore knee.
