The Seattle Seahawks are on course to field their second-worst defense under Pete Carroll, and injuries to the likes of K.J. Wright and Earl Thomas have been a factor. Unfortunately, a below-average defense could suffer even more with starting safety Bradley McDougald currently battling patella tendonitis.
At Wednesday’s press conference, Carroll provided an update on the Pro Bowl alternate’s health.
Pete Carroll says Bradley McDougald will be out of town this week getting treatment on his bothersome knee, which is what K.J. Wright did a few weeks ago. He'll be back Friday.

Okay, that’s not exactly promising for his chances to play against the Kansas City Chiefs, considering Wright has been “out of town” twice over this season alone for treatment on his own knee.
