Williams looks ready

Mike Williams, the Seahawks’ leading receiver, just finished a rigorous workout and appears ready to return for today’s game against the Panthers at Qwest Field.

Williams sat out last week’s loss to the Chiefs with a strained left foot. But during his early pre-game work he was catching passes while doing rapid-fire agility drills with his feet.

Friday, coach Pete Carroll said, “At this point, we’re counting on him to play. We’ve got to get him through the warm-ups and see what happens, and what happens after today’s running around and all that. But if he can run in pregame, then he’ll play.”
