Six Hawks have surgery
The Seahawks have sent out a press release to say six players underwent surgery: Shaun Alexander, Baraka Atkins, Will Herring, Josh Scobey, Pork Chop Womack, and Ray Willis. Plus, four more will have surgery soon, too. They are: Chris Spencer, Patrick Kerney, Walter Jones, and Deion Branch.
