Coach Pete Carroll said Carson (neck) is no longer dealing with discomfort but still needs to be evaluated throughout the week of practice before he's cleared to return for Sunday's game in Green Bay, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Seahawks are hoping Carson can make it back as soon as Sunday, though they'll have a 21-day window to reinstate him to the active roster after designating him Wednesday to return from IR. It sounds like all outcomes are still in play here, with Carson potentially starting this Sunday if practice goes well, whereas a setback could send him to the season-ending version of IR. There won't be any official practice status for Carson on Wednesday (or Thursday/Friday, in all likelihood), as he's still on injured reserve and doesn't need to be activated until Saturday afternoon in order to play in Sunday's game against the Packers.
