Takeaways from Pete Carroll’s Wednesday press conference: Doug Baldwin practices, Earl Thomas sits out, Mychal Kendricks will play, and more

Doug Baldwin practiced Wednesday. Earl Thomas did not.

Seahawks coach Pete Carroll talked about that and more during his Wednesday press conference.

Here are highlights:

THOMAS GETS A WEDNESDAY REST DAY

Thomas did not practice on Wednesday, which followed last week’s controversy over him deciding not to take part in Friday’s practice.

But Carroll said this was not the same, saying “this is the day that Earl always gets a break.’’

Thomas also did not practice last Wednesday and that had been regarded at the time as a “veteran’s rest day.’’ It was unclear later in the week if that had indeed been the case.
