Seahawks activate Okung, cut third QB

The Seattle Seahawks activated left tackle Russell Okung from the injured reserve/designated-to-return list and released third-string quarterback B.J. Daniels on Saturday.

Okung, a Pro Bowl player last season, has been on IR since suffering a partially torn ligament in his left toe against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 2.

The Seahawks also expect to get injured center Max Unger and right tackle Breno Giacomini back for their game Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings.

Coach Pete Carroll said Friday that they would all be game-time decisions.

"We're not going to do it unless we're ready," Carroll said. "These guys have shown that they're ready now, but we won't make that decision unless we think that's the right thing to do. We could be more conservative and wait longer, but we think we've done all the things that we needed to do. We'll get the information and figure it out, and then call it on game day."
