Seahawks’ Thomas returns to practice

Published

on

Seattle Seahawks safety Earl Thomas was a limited participant in practice Friday and listed as questionable for the Super Bowl, although he is fully expected to be ready to play when the Seahawks face the New England Patriots on Feb. 1 in Glendale, Ariz.

Thomas suffered a dislocated shoulder in the NFC title game against the Green Bay Packers on Sunday and had sat out the first two practices of the week. But coach Pete Carroll said Thomas is ready to play.

Cornerback Richard Sherman, who suffered a sprained elbow, practiced all week and was among six Seahawks listed as probable Friday.

The right side of the offensive line is expected to be 100 percent as well: Guard J.R. Sweezy (ankle) and tackle Justin Britt (knee) were listed as probable. Sweezy, who was injured against the Packers, did not practice all week, but he is expected to play in the Super Bowl.

For the Patriots, six players were listed as questionable: former Seahawks cornerback Brandon Browner (knee), linebacker Dont’a Hightower (shoulder), defensive tackle Chris Jones (elbow), wide receiver Brandon LaFell (shoulder/toe), Sealver Siliga (foot), center Bryan Stork (knee).

Stork missed the AFC title game but is expected to play in the Super Bowl.

Quarterback Tom Brady continues to be listed as probable with an ankle injury.
