Seattle Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald said Thursday that most of the team's starters – including quarterback Geno Smith – are expected to play in Saturday night's preseason finale against the Cleveland Browns.Exactly how much those starters will play is going to come down to each individual player, but Macdonald believes there is value in his starters seeing some live game action before the regular season starts in just over two weeks time.
Tight ends Noah Fant and Pharaoh Brown, linebacker Jerome Baker, and cornerback Tre Brown are among the players that won't play against the Browns due to injuries. However, Macdonald said he's optimistic Fant and Brown will be ready for Week 1, Baker returned to limited work in practice on Friday, and Brown is expected back to practice next week after sitting out Friday.Safety Rayshawn Jenkins' status is less certain.
