ST. LOUIS -- The Seahawks will have a new starting left guard Sunday with John Moffitt out because of a knee injury.

The Seahawks did not announce a starting lineup, but it's expected James Carpenter will start at left guard, Paul McQuistan at right guard, but we'll see.

There was a report earlier that defensive tackle Alan Branch was inactive, but that was a case of mistaken numbers. It's Greg Scruggs, No. 98, who is inactive and not Branch, who is No. 99.

For the Rams, running back Steven Jackson is playing after being listed as questionable. Same for tackle Wayne Hunter, who will start at left tackle in place of the injured Rodger Saffold.

Rams RB Steven Jackson is playing today.
