SEAHAWKS

Injury news, good for a Hawk fan for once: The Chiefs may have a rookie quarterback Sunday. Damon Huard, who is filling in for an injured Trent Green, suffered a groin injury Thursday (to go with a bad hamstring) and may not be able to play.

If he can’t go, rookie Brodie Croyle would have to start.

Still the game is in KC, a place that hasn’t been kind to the Seahawks over the year. The Hawks do come in with something that most teams don’t have: someone (Julian Peterson) to cover tight end Tony Gonzalez.

The Matt Hasselbeck injury has opened the door for one Seahawk, formerly third-string quarterback David Greene, who will be the backup this week.
