Earl Thomas

Seahawks expect Earl Thomas (heel) to play Sunday night

Per Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times, Seattle Seahawks coach Pete Caroll said that safety Earl Thomas "is fine and will play" in the team's Week 13 matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles.

What It Means:

Thomas was held out and limited at practice, but he seems ready to go for this week's game. Bradley McDougald will remain his backup as Shaq Griffin (concussion) is also expected back for the Seattle defense.

With the Seahawks getting a little healthier but facing a tough matchup in the Eagles, our models project their defense/special teams to tally 4.8 FanDuel points at a cost of $4,500 on this week's slate.
