| 05/21/13 | DL | Cliff Avril | Foot | New Seahawks defensive end Cliff Avril hurt his foot four weeks ago according to coach Pete Carroll and is sidelined in OTAs because of a plantar fascia issue. "It hurts," said Carroll per the Tacoma News Tribune. "You could ask him about it. The plantar fascia thing is a real uncomfortable thing. You just have to wait it out. It’s something that you can come back from. It’s not a problem. But you just have to wait it out. He’s real anxious to go, and he’s doing very well in his rehab. And he runs some this week for the first time. So it will take another couple weeks at least." (Updated 05/21/2013) | |

Irvin is eligible to participate in all offseason and preseason practices and games. "I want to apologize to my teammates, coaches and Seahawks fans for making a mistake when I took a substance that is prohibited in the NFL without a medical exemption," Irvin said in a statement. "I am extremely disappointed in the poor judgment I showed and take full responsibility for my actions. I will not appeal the discipline and instead will focus my energy on preparing for the season so I can begin earning your trust and respect again. I look forward to contributing to the team the moment I return." (Updated 05/17/2013) | |

| 01/15/13 | TE | Zach Miller | Foot | During the Seahawks' 30-28 loss to the Falcons in the Divisional playoffs, Seattle tight end Zach Miller had his best game of the season, recording eight catches for 142 yards and a touchdown. In fact, his performance was statistically his best since Week 4 of 2010. The most amazing part of his game? As the Seattle Times reports, Miller tore his plantar fascia on the third play of the game, returned to the locker room to get a pain-killing injection in his foot and then helped the Seahawks to a near-amazing comeback. "It was nice to get some balls like that," Miller said after the game. "But I'm disappointed that we didn't win when we were so close. If there is any solace, I don't feel it right now." The next day, as the Seahawks cleaned out their lockers for the offseason, Miller was spotted using crutches. (Updated 01/15/2013) | |

I think he'll have a full recovery. But now you have two opinions, neither of which are expert medical opinions, so do with it what you wish." (Updated 05/06/2013) | |

| 02/04/13 | WR | Mike Wallace | Hip | The South Florida Sun Sentinel reports the Dolphins have signed free agent receiver Mike Wallace on Tuesday.
