Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll has revealed that he is prepared to face the Houston Texans without key members of his offensive line.
Max Unger and Breno Giacomini are both doubtful for the clash with the Texans at Reliant Stadium and Carroll admitted that he would rather have them at full fitness than risk playing them this week.
He told reporters: "When [our players] are getting banged up, we're trying to really give them every chance to get back and utilize our depth and if that's what this calls for then we're ready to do that.
"We're not going to force guys back out there until they're ready to play."
Seattle are 3-0 in their season going into week four.
