The Seattle Seahawks are expecting CB Richard Sherman to play Sunday night against the San Francisco 49ers. Sherman is facing a four-game league imposed suspension after he tested positive for a banned substance. After missing two practices this week, Sherman returned to Seattle after holding an appeals hearing at the league office.
No ruling was made in his appeals hearing but Sherman took to Twitter on his return flight and sent the following message, “Been a long day but very productive. I will be out there with my teammates on Sunday!” No ruling is expected over the weekend.
Seattle faces a difficult game this Sunday night against their divisional foe, the San Francisco 49ers. It will be important for the Seahawks to have Sherman in the lineup as other members of the Seattle secondary are already banged up.

The Mayan apocalypse can wait until after we see what is shaping up to be one of the best games of the season. The implications of the game are huge; if the 49ers win the game, they claim the NFC west … if the Seahawks win, there’s still a chance that they’ll...

Today, Seattle Seahawks tackle Russell Okung tweeted a photo of a gift to offensive line coach Tom Cable. Looks like there’s potential for a naughty Christmas in the Cable household...

What stands out from last night’s Seattle Seahawks ugly Christmas sweater party? The lack of diversity in ugly sweaters. Those beefy guys (nope, wouldn’t say it to their faces) above are the offensive line. They need tent sweaters. There must only be one ugly sweater shop in Seattle that makes tent sweaters.
Take a look at that diversity.

Stakes are high again in prime-time showcase
Dynamic young quarterbacks. Bullying running backs. Rock-solid defenses. Coaches who don't much like each other. Throw in playoff implications and no wonder the 49ers and Seattle Seahawks were given a prime-time showcase.
