Seahawks inactives against Eagles: Both Sowell and Webb inactive, leaving Seattle young on the OL

The Seahawks’ list of inactives for Sunday’s game against the Eagles contained one mild surprise with both of the team’s veteran offensive tackles — J’Marcus Webb and Bradley Sowell — not playing.

Sowell was deemed healthy enough to play this week but coach Pete Carroll had hinted on Friday that they might give him one more week before throwing him back into action — he suffered a sprained knee against Arizona on Oct. 23.

Webb also is apparently healthy but was made inactive, which leaves the Seahawks with only rookies Joey Hunt and Rees Odhiambo as backup offensive linemen today.
