Rawls (illness) is listed as active Sunday against the Dolphins, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Entering the season as a question mark due to a broken ankle suffered in Week 14 last year, Rawls avoided an appearance on Wednesday's injury report, only to log a DNP on Thursday due to an illness. On Friday, he was removed following a full practice, but head coach Pete Carroll nonetheless named Christine Michael the starting running back for the opener, according to John Boyle of the team's official site. A wait-and-see approach is likely the best way to handle Rawls off the bat.
