Seahawks coach Pete Carroll said Wednesday that Rawls (ankle) and C.J. Prosise (groin) both are healthy enough to play in Thursday's preseason finale against the Raiders, Curtis Crabtree of Sports Radio 950 KJR reports.
Carroll declined to specify if the two running backs actually would play, merely suggesting that they are healthy enough to do so. The Seahawks figure to hold out a number of key players in a game that's primarily designed to settle competitions at the back of the roster. Rawls worked ahead of Eddie Lacy throughout most of training camp and returned to practice Tuesday, but it still isn't entirely clear which player will get the start Week 1 in Green Bay. The Seahawks likely will deploy a three-way committee to open the season.
