RENTON, Wash. -- Seattle Seahawks coach Pete Carroll says pass-rusher Darrell Taylor expects to play Monday night against the New Orleans Saints, having escaped serious injury after a scary-looking incident last week in Pittsburgh.
All that Taylor is dealing with after being stretchered off Heinz Field, according to Carroll, is a stiff neck.
The coach said Seattle's leader in sacks (4.0) isn't doing much in Thursday's practice but "feels really good."
"He's got a stiff neck is what he came out with," Carroll said. "So after all of that that we went through to protect him and all, it's like he slept bad on his neck and he's got a stiff neck.
