Seahawks Team Report (Yahoo! Sports)

Thu, 02 Jul 2009 19:15:39 PDT

During the final day of minicamp offensive tackle Walter Jones ran wind sprints and worked out of a three-point stance at the end of practice. It was the first, significant work Jones had done on the field since opting for microfracture knee surgery to alleviate pain in his left knee that shortened his 2008 season.

If Jones cannot return to the field healthy, Seattle will have to resort to Plan B, which is move right tackle Sean Locklear to left tackle and play Ray Willis at right tackle.
