RENTON, Wash. (AP) — Eddie Lacy will be out and Earl Thomas is doubtful for the Seattle Seahawks heading into Thursday night’s game against Arizona.

Lacy suffered a groin injury early in Sunday’s loss to Washington. But the bigger absence could be Thomas, who is on the verge of missing his second straight game with a hamstring injury. Coach Pete Carroll sounded pessimistic that Thomas would be able to play after missing practice all week.

Carroll said he expected defensive tackle Sheldon Richardson (oblique) and Paul Richardson (groin) to be able to play.

The Seahawks also activated defensive lineman Dion Jordan from the non-football injury list and placed offensive lineman Rees Odhiambo on injured reserve. Carroll said Odhiambo needs surgery on both hands due to finger injuries.
