"We can’t just put everyone up that you want to. "There are roster issues there's numbers," he said. But in this matchup with the guys that were healthy and all that, this was the way we had to go."Ĭarroll was noncommittal on Wednesday when asked what Lacy's role will be this week. I love Eddie, and he wanted to be part of it. It's not like it has to be that way all the time, but it was in this game. "We wanted to see Thomas come back, and that was what the decision was, and there were a couple other things that entered into that, too. "You only have so many spots," he said Sunday in reference to game-day rosters being limited to 46 of the 53 players. Seahawks coach Pete Carroll, for what it's worth, has described Lacy being inactive as merely a matchup-based decision and not an indication that he's permanently buried on the depth chart. With Carson emerging in the first two weeks and Rawls now back from injury, Lacy's role in Seattle's backfield - and even his future with the team - seems up in the air. But he played on only seven offensive snaps and had five carries (for 3 yards) in the opener against Green Bay before being benched a week later. It was a move that few could have imagined when Lacy signed a one-year, $4.25 million deal with the Seahawks in March to be their lead back, or at least their co-lead back. "It was my first time that's happened to me or whatever, so I really don't know what think of it. "There's no positive way to take it, but I was the most positive I could be," Lacy said Wednesday about his reaction to being a healthy scratch. Lacy then watched from the sideline while wearing street clothes as Thomas Rawls started and rookie Chris Carson got the majority of the work for the second straight week, gaining 93 yards on 20 carries to help the Seahawks beat the San Francisco 49ers, 12-9.

He was about to board the Seattle Seahawks team bus headed for CenturyLink Field when running backs coach Chad Morton broke the news to him. Eddie Lacy said he found out that he'd be inactive for last Sunday's game a few hours before everyone else did.
