The Facts:
Branch fully participated in practice Monday for the first time since tearing the ACL in his left knee January in a playoff loss at Green Bay. HC Mike Holmgren said Branch should make his season debut on Sunday when Seattle faces the Giants on the road. So will Bobby Engram, who set the team record with 94 catches last season but has been out for seven weeks with a broken right shoulder.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
The team's receiving corps was a major problem a few weeks ago. Seattle signed Koren Robinson and Billy McMullen and acquired Keary Colbert in a trade from Denver. That was after the Seahawks employed backup quarterback Seneca Wallace as an emergency receiver, until he pulled a calf muscle in warmups before a loss to San Francisco on Sept. 14. The Seahawks have such depth at the position that Courtney Taylor, who started the opener at Buffalo three weeks ago, isn’t even in their plans now.
