Collins (groin) was held out of practice Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

For a fourth straight week of prep, Collins is contending with a groin issue, but he's rarely missed practice during that span. Thursday's development may be maintenance related to keep him as fresh as possible in a backfield that is waiting for Chris Carson to get past lingering neck soreness. Carson is in the midst of his 21-day practice window but now is one week removed from his last bit of on-field work. If Carson remains on IR and the Seahawks clear Collins to play Sunday versus the Cardinals, the latter should earn most of the touches out of the backfield, with Travis Homer, Rashaad Penny and DeeJay Dallas on hand for leftover snaps and touches.
