The wait is almost over

As the one really “dead” time in the NFL schedule winds to a close, we’re now in single digits until rookies report July 29 so it’s time to update on three items of interest:

Pete Carroll told 710 ESPN on Monday that the Seahawks will not sign WR Terrell Owens. That’s too bad for anyone looking forward to seeing T.O. and T.J. run down the field simultaneously flailing their arms in the air, looking exasperated when the ball goes to John Carlson for three yards and then both barking at Matt Hasselbeck as soon as they get back to the huddle.

Leroy Hill has been suspended for the first game of the season. With it only being a one-game suspension, look for the Seahawks to give Hill a third life with the team. He’s expected to be in more of a traditional linebacker role this year with Aaron Curry rushing the passer more often.

Kevin Ellison pleaded not guilty to drug possession charges and has an October court date after being caught with 100 Vicodin in his car without a prescription. Let’s hope he’s more focused on delivering the pain come this season rather than trying to numb it, because the Hawks desperately need a fierce secondary presence.
