Housh, Deion return to practice
The Hawks are installing a new offense, so it was good to see WRs T.J. Houshmandzadeh and Deion Branch back on the practice field as the offseason program winded down this week. T.J. had sports hernia surgery, while Branch underwent another knee procedure.
They both got in two days of work before the team shut things down for six weeks leading up to training camp.
“It’s just great to see these guys back in,” coach Pete Carroll said, “so we have a feel for them.”
T.J. and Deion are the team’s top two receivers, but the offense still lacks a dynamic, playmaking threat. Golden Tate was drafted to be that weapon, but the only playmaking he’s done so far was a 3 a.m. post pattern through the back door of Top Pot doughnuts.
