Injury report: DT Alan Branch returns to practice

RENTON -- Defensive tackle Alan Branch returned to practice Thursday, a great sign for the team's defensive line depth especially given Thursday's move that put Jason Jones on injured reserve.

Branch left Sunday's game with an ankle injury, which the Seahawks feared could keep him out for an extended period. Instead, he was back at practice Thursday, which would mean it's very likely he'll play Sunday.
