The Facts: For the first time, HC Pete Carroll suggested Wednesday that Graham could miss games at the start of the regular season. "We've had no issues at all in the work he's doing on the field," Carroll said. "That will continue to increase throughout the next few weeks. Really we're shooting for: Where is he at the start of the season? And we'll evaluate then on how much longer it may take, or he may be ready. We don't know that yet. But he feels good."
Diehards Line:Graham is trying to return from a patellar tendon injury he suffered last November. He began training camp on the PUP list but returned to practice last week. He has been limited and is not yet participating in team drills. Graham has talked to other players who have rehabbed from the same injury like Jon Stinchcomb and Victor Cruz, and they advised him that rushing back can lead to other issues. So for now, the plan remains to take it slow.
