As expected, Matt Hasselbeck sat out of the second half Sunday to rest for the postseason. However, before leaving, Hasselbeck sustained an injury to his right wrist, according to the Seattle Times. He threw a 30-yard touchdown pass after sustaining the injury, and X-rays were negative, so it appears he'll be fine for the postseason.

Matt Hasselbeck came away from Sunday's game with an injury sustained in the second quarter. The exact nature of the injury wasn't clear, as coach Mike Holmgren said it was Hasselbeck's ribs, but the quarterback didn't deny it was his troublesome oblique muscle, according to the Seattle Times. "Matt is going to be very sore," Holmgren added. His status will be worth monitoring all week to make sure he's able to go in Week 12.

Matt Hasselbeck came out of Sunday's game banged up. Specifically, the quarterback sustained and played through a strained right oblique, according to the Seattle Times. "I don't think it's too serious," he said. It wasn't bad enough to force him to come out of the game, though he lost some of his accuracy after sustaining the injury. He should be fine for their next game, but it's something we'll keep an eye on during the week.

Don't be surprised if you don't see much of Matt Hasselbeck on Saturday night, especially if you tune into the game a few minutes late. The Seattle Times reports he isn't expected to play more than one series against the Packers. "I'm doing what they [the coaches] say," Hasselbeck told the paper. "I realize that I'm just one guy on this team and they have to get a look at other guys and find out some things about different positions. I would love to play as much as they put me in there, and if they don't, they don't." Expect a good dose of Seneca Wallace and a whole lot of David Greene this weekend. Don't you wish you could pay full price to attend a NFL preseason game?
