Marshawn Lynch has shown glimpses of promise since the Seahawks traded for him just over a month ago. But on Sunday, Seattle’s new running back coughed up fumbles that brought two promising drives to a grinding halt. Seahawks coach Pete Carroll replaced Lynch with Leon Washington for the rest of the game. Along with the fumbles, Lynch also dropped two passes and finished with just 36 yards on seven carries. Lynch was not in the locker room when reporters were allowed in after the game. “I’ve already talked to him, and he just feels horrible about it,” Carroll said. “Both of them were kind of in transition situations where he got vulnerable. Unfortunately those are crushers, they’re crushing plays when you give the football up. And he knows that. And we have to do a better job of emphasizing – in those kind of situations in particular – when you’re spinning around and guys are coming from all angles, stuff can happen and you’ve got to finish the play.” — Olympian

“OK, so who wants to tie my shoes?” Seahawks quarterback Matt Hasselbeck asked. The question was hilarious. It just wasn’t a joke. At least not entirely. Hasselbeck suffered an injury to his left wrist in Seattle’s win at Arizona on Sunday, and while it didn’t keep him from returning to the game, it did make a couple of other things more problematic. Like using a touch-screen cellphone efficiently. Or tying his cleats before Wednesday’s practice. For the record, J.P. Losman — Seattle’s No. 3 quarterback — is the one who ended up tying Hasselbeck’s shoes before the team took the field for practice. — Seattle Times

Coach Pete Carroll said quarterback Matt Hasselbeck suffered to cracked bones in his left wrist, neither a displaced fracture. He said he doesn’t expect Hasselbeck to miss this week’s game, but it will affect his repetitions in practice. Hasselbeck will play with a splint, protecting the wrist. “Likely that it’s a four to six-week kind of deal for the healing part of it,” Carroll said, “but he’ll be more comfortable with it if we can have good fortune with him not banging it in the next couple of weeks. This first week is the most difficult.” Will the injury worsen while he plays through it? “No,” Carroll said. “They think that he’ll be secure and safe. Things could aggravate, but he should be in pretty good shape.” — Seattle Times

Charlie Whitehurst was tapped as the Seahawks quarterback of the future before the season by some media pundits. Now he might be looking for work in 2011.

John Czarnecki of Fox Sports reports that its unlikely Whitehurst has a future in Seattle, unless he takes a pay cut.

The organization is saying that backup QB Charlie Whitehurst still has a future with the team, but that seems unlikely with a $4 million salary next season.
