The Facts: HC Pete Carroll said on Tuesday that Graham was very close to coming off the physically unable to perform list and joining the team on the practice field. Carroll might have been holding back on just how close Graham was to making his return. Multiple reporters have passed along word that Graham is on the field in a helmet and uniform with the rest of the team at Wednesday's practice.

Diehards Line:The Seahawks subsequently announced that Graham has been activated from the PUP list. Graham last played in Week 12 last season and his torn patellar tendon ended a year that saw him make a choppy debut in Seattle’s offense. The team’s passing game thrived without him down the stretch and finding a way to keep that going with Graham back in the picture will be one of the tasks on the Seahawks’ checklist heading into the season.
