Seattle Seahawks Inside Slant 2008-12-16
It appears as if the Seattle Seahawks will be juggling their offensive line yet again.


Starting left tackle Sean Locklear, who had been switched from his right tackle spot when Walter Jones was injured, suffered a dislocated toe on the last play of the Seahawks' 23-20 victory over the St. Louis Rams and is not likely to play against the New York Jets on Sunday.

Locklear will not practice this week, and coach Mike Holmgren said a final decision will be made on Saturday. But Holmgren generally does not like a player to play if he has not practiced all week.

If Locklear can't, he is likely to be replaced by Kyle Williams, who would be getting his first career start.

The other option is to move starting left guard Floyd Womack to left tackle, move center Steve Vallos - a converted guard - into Womack's spot and to have recently signed Steve McKinney start at center. McKinney is an 11-year veteran and would have the easiest transition moving into the lineup, though Williams has been on the team's practice squad for two years and knows Holmgren's system.

Either way, it is one less experienced player to protect Seneca Wallace, who will start again this week because Matt Hasselbeck has not entirely recovered from his sore back.

Wallace was sacked three times in the first half of Sunday's victory over the Rams and was hit multiple more times, prompting him to chastise his teammates just before halftime.

The only reason he was not hit more often is because his speed and athleticism allowed him to escape more readily. He likely will have to run even faster against the Jets now that Locklear is out.
