On Saturday, the Seahawks will issue their final injury report in advance of Monday night’s game against the Lions. Running back Marshawn Lynch likely will be listed as questionable with a hamstring injury, which will mean there’s a 50-50 chance he plays.
Per a source with knowledge of the situation, the current estimate is that Lynch’s chances of playing are more like 40-60.
Because the NFL has only three categories that range from virtually certain (probable) to 50-50 (questionable) to 25-75 (doubtful), there’s no way to accurately reflect other percentages.
If there’s any doubt about Lynch’s availability, it could make the most sense to go with Fred Jackson and Thomas Rawls, especially since Rawls, an undrafted rookie from Central Michigan, rushed for 104 yards on 16 carries last week against the Bears.
