Update on Hassle-back

by: Mike Parker

Our beloved QB's back hassles appear to be nearing an ahead-of-schedule recovery, according to an ESPN report.

Hasselbeck has been in Vancouver, BC, for extended periods of rehab, and the prognosis so far is he'll be good to go long before the start of training camp. This is encouraging news after health problems and age seemed to be getting the best of Matt this season, forcing him to miss nine games.

But on the plus side, we saw a much-improved Seneca Wallace under center in Matt's place, which is also encouraging if (knock on wood) anything else was to happen to our first-stringer.

And rumor has it, both QBs will be having some new and talented faces to be throwing to in 2009....-END-
