The Seattle Seahawks had a few shakeups on the inactive list for today’s game against the New York Jets.

Defensive tackle Clinton McDonald, who came into the game listed as questionable because of a groin injury, will be inactive for today’s game. Rookie Greg Scruggs also is inactive because of an oblique strain. Scruggs was listed as doubtful on Friday’s injury report.

With those two guys down, rookie fourth round draft choice defensive tackle Jaye Howard will be active for his first game of the year.

Defensive back Walter Thurmond, recently brought up from the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list, will have to wait another two weeks to play in his first game, as he is inactive for today.

As Seattle head coach Pete Carroll told us on Friday, outside linebacker K.J. Wright and offensive lineman James Carpenter have been ruled out of today’s game because of concussions.

Mike Morgan will start at outside linebacker for Wright, and John Moffitt will start for a second straight week at left guard for Carpenter.

Here’s the full list.
