In advance of the release of the final injury report for the Week 2 matchup between the Seattle Seahawks and the Detroit Lions, Hawks head coach Pete Carroll announced that left tackle Charles Cross would not play. That proclamation mean that Seattle would be without both starting tackles against Detroit, as the team moved Abe Lucas to injured reserve Wednesday, meaning he is out for at least the next four games.
Many had speculated during the week that Cross would be unable to play in the game, leading to some opining that the team could turn to recently signed left tackle Jason Peters to start at the position.
