Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said Wednesday that Carson (ankle/leg) should be a full participant when training camp begin, Gregg Bell of the News Tribune reports.
Carson, who finished the 2017 season on injured reserve, is recovering from a broken leg and damaged ligaments in his left ankle. Prior to getting injured, the seventh-round rookie had taken over as the starter in Seattle's underwhelming rushing attack and may have stuck in that role all season given the ineffectiveness of teammates Eddie Lacy and Thomas Rawls. It's true that Mike Davis flashed promise toward the end of the season in Carson's absence, but the former likely didn't do enough to dampen the excitement Seattle has for the up-and-coming Carson. If Carson hits further snags in his recovery and isn't on the field when training camp opens, it's possible a door could open for another runner to stake a claim to the lead-back role.
