(Renton, WA)  --  Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll says he's hoping for the return this week of star running back Marshawn Lynch.  Lynch has been nursing a hamstring injury, and has missed back-to-back games for the first time in his Seattle career.  Carroll says Lynch had a good workout yesterday, and it's hoped he'll be ready for Sunday's game at CenturyLink Field against Carolina.  Rookie Thomas Rawls has been an able replacement for Lynch, with 58 carries for an average of five-point-six yards per carry.
