Penny (hamstring) was listed as limited on Wednesday's injury report, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
The oft-injured Penny hurt his hamstring Week 11 and sat out Week 12, but head coach Pete Carroll told Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times on Wednesday that the running back may be able to return for Sunday's game against the 49ers. That's quite the change in status after Penny seemingly poised to head to injured reserve just last week. In any case, he would put himself in a better spot to be active again by taking part in more than a walk-through session -- which the Seahawks held Wednesday -- on Thursday and/or Friday.
