Okung out for Seattle; Rogers out for Oakland

SEATTLE (AP) — Starting left tackle Russell Okung is inactive for the Seattle Seahawks while cornerback Carlos Rogers is out for Oakland.

Okung was questionable going into Sunday’s game with a calf injury suffered in practice this week. He’s the latest Seattle starter to go down. Along with Okung, Seattle starters Bobby Wagner, Malcolm Smith and Zach Miller were already ruled out prior to Sunday’s game. Alvin Bailey is expected to start in place of Okung.

Seattle safety Kam Chancellor (groin) was active, but did not appear to be participating in early pregame warmups. Center Max Unger (foot) was also active after being listed as questionable in recovering from a foot injury.

Rogers was doubtful with a knee injury and was downgraded to out on Saturday. Rookie T.J. Carrie is expected to start for Rogers.
