00:00 In starting center Evan Brown ailing due to a hip injury.
00:03 The Seahawks have added experienced insurance to their roster for Sunday's game against
00:07 the Arizona Cardinals.
00:09 Signing Joey Hunt back to the 53-man roster, he will serve as the backup behind rookie
00:14 Olu Oluwatimi if Evan Brown isn't able to play.
00:17 This would suggest to me that he is leaning towards not playing in this game.
00:20 Pete Carroll called him a game-time decision on Friday, so it's looking likely that Oluwatimi
00:26 will make that first start in a Seahawks uniform.
00:29 As for additional moves, with DK Metcalf and Zach Charbonnet also game-time decisions,
00:34 the Seahawks elevated receiver Aesop Winston and running back Sir Roger Thompson Jr. for
00:39 the practice squad.
00:40 Both players had impressive pre-seasons.
00:42 Winston has previous regular season experience, so he could come in and play some snaps on
00:47 offensive special teams if needed.
00:49 Thompson hasn't played in a regular season game, but had 81 rushing yards in the pre-season,
00:53 scored a couple of touchdowns, provides extra depth behind Ken Walker III and DJ Dallas
00:58 against Arizona.
