Seahawks vs. Broncos Pregame Notes

12th MAN , er, Women Flag Raiser

Raising the 12th MAN flag in the south end will be Central Washington University’s Mallory Holtman and Liz Wallace and Sara Tucholsky from Western Oregon.

No Nate or Curry

Wide receiver Nate Burleson and linebacker Aaron Curry will not play for the Seahawks tonight in their preseason home opener against the Denver Broncos.

Neither scratch is a surprise, because Burleson did not practice during the week to rest a sore hamstring and Curry has been sidelined since straining his groin during the Tuesday night practice at Husky Stadium.

Rookie Deon Butler will start for Burleson, while veteran D.D. Lewis will replace Curry.

Also out tonight: left tackle Walter Jones (knee), cornerback Marcus Trufant (back) and offensive lineman Grey Ruegamer (elbow).
