Wide receiver Terrell Owens sat out practice on Wednesday to rest his sore Achilles, but head coach Dennis Erickson said there is not doubt his star would be ready for Sunday, the Sacramento Bee reported. "He hurt it in the [Detroit] game," Erickson said. "It's not something that's been lingering, but it bothered him a little bit [on Wednesday]. According to the trainers, he'll be ready to go [on Thursday]."

Owens would not miss a chance to return to Seattle, where he pulled a Sharpie out of his sock last season. Owens showed up on the injury report last week with a sore Achilles as well, so we're a bit perplexed by Erickson's comments about this not being a lingering issue. Anyway, fantasy owners should have Terrell in their lineup this week, as the Seahawks' secondary is a bit banged up right now.
