Hello and welcome to the Sea Hawkers podcast.

From the podium, Pete Carroll, end of season edition.

And yes, it was two days after the wildcard loss to the San Francisco 49ers that are head coach, Pete Carroll.

He was available to media to speak more in depth about his reflections on the season,

as well as the team's plans for the future.

And a lot of it, too, was injury updates on some of the players who had been working

through injuries this season, some players who had had injuries late in the

season. So we're going to get into those, but we will start out with Jamal Adams, who is still

recovering from his injury and how he figures into the Seahawks future plans.

Jamal was with us here this weekend, and he's finally starting to move. You know, he's up on his feet and he's going. He's on the treadmills and those things getting started. So he's, it's still a long recovery for him. And, you know, we'll go into the summer with him still getting back. So, you know, we just have to wait and see how it goes. But, you know, that's not one that he's going to bounce back and be ready next month or something like that. It's going to take him a while. Next up in injury news, we have an update on linebacker Jordan Brooks. He hasn't been operated on yet. They've waited. I think it's, what was the date today? I think he's going in the 19th. What is the date today? Yeah, 19th. So we won't know anything until then. Brooks's fellow linebacker, Ben Burk-Kirvin, is also recovering from a knee injury. He's a little bit of an experimental mode. You know, the surgeries that he's had and in the process, he's going through, he is making progress. He is bustness. He's always in the wait room with us. He's always here working with really tremendous mentality. You know, nerve issues are this really intricate stuff going on. And so he has had to really have a good attitude about it to stay in the fight. And he is. He's in the fight. And he's planning on getting back out there, you know.

So we're going to give him every chance. If he can do it, we're going to, this is going to be the place he does it. And so we'll see what happens. And, but he's upbeat. He's positive. He's made improvements in an area that sometimes you don't make any. And so the scientists of this deal that are part of this challenge and see how it goes and

with really high hopes.

One of the Seahawks defensive rookies, Tyreek Smith, he was not able to appear for the Seahawks

this season.

Pete talks about what may be on deck for Smith.

Yeah, he should be able to be fully recovered, ready to go, and all that.

So, you know, we didn't get anything done this year.

But good hopes for the future.

He's an active football player.

He could be a factor for us.

Pass rusher from the draft prior, Outen Robinson, did not see the field either this season due to his injury.

There's some issues with this return. It's just taking them a while.
