“We looked after him a little bit”. Appearing on KIRO-AM Radio in Seattle on Monday morning, Carroll said X-rays and MRI tests on Wilson came back “fine”. “We didn’t want to tax him too much”.

Could we see more of Russell Wilson sitting over the next few days?
Wilson has vowed to play this week since the 12-10 win over the Miami Dolphins was completed on Sunday and has been nearly maniacal in his approach.
Even if Wilson ends up playing, fantasy owners should start looking for a Plan B on the waiver wire. Wilson’s mobility was clearly hindered by the injury, showing none of his natural escapability or pocket movement. Schneider said in July he’d been talking to the representatives for Jackson, Seattle’s starter in 2011 and Wilson’s backup from 2012 through his contract expiring in January.
“There’s a feeling of familiarity. He’s come through”, Seattle cornerback Richards Sherman said. He’s never missed a meaningful snap in five seasons as Seattle’s starting quarterback and had no intention to start now.
Baldwin catches the ball relatively in stride at the Miami 39-yard line with 2:04 on the clock.
Tannehill ended up throwing for 186 yards during a 16-29 day. The last play that played a major role in defeat was the blocked field goal in the third quarter.
With the offense hopefully improving with more reps, this coaching staff gives me hope for the future, something I haven’t been able to say for many years. They’ll look to do just that and take the next step forward next week at the Los Angeles Rams.
ANKLE DAMAGE: Wilson was hobbled after he was sacked by Suh for a 13-yard loss.
Suh inadvertently hit the back of Wilson’s foot on the sack, causing the quarterback’s foot and ankle to twist awkwardly.
He’s walking around. He’s practicing on Wednesday and he’s planning on playing.
MISSED IT: Miami missed on three great scoring chances.
Miami, a team with many question marks, led a preseason Super Bowl favorite late in the fourth quarter before squandering the lead. That’s just my mentality, whatever it takes. With not even a minute left in the game, the Raiders scored a touchdown and instead of tying the game with an extra point, they went for two and successfully converted the attempt to win the game against New Orleans, 35-34. Once we do this, we’re after one thing: winning. “That’s what it was about, to continue a conversation about social injustices and systematic racism that still plagues our country”.
A number of athletes have followed the lead of 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick – who has chosen to sit out the national anthem in order to bring attention to racial inequality.

The second half wasn’t pretty either. He did not return.
