Seahawks' Marcus Smith: Full participant Thursday
Smith (concussion) was a full participant in practice Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Smith sat out last Thursday's win over the Cardinals due to a concussion he suffered a week prior. However, the defensive end was able to return to the field this week given the extended time off.

Seahawks' Marcus Smith: Ruled out Thursday
Smith (concussion) was ruled out for Thursday's game against the Cardinals, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Smith suffered the concussion in Sunday's loss to the Redskins, and the quick turnaround for Thursday's game was always a longshot. Quinton Jefferson and recent free agent addition Dwight Freeney should both see increased workloads, as well as Dion Jordan, who was freshly activated off the Reserve/Non-Football injury list.

Seahawks' Marcus Smith: Unlikely to play Thursday
Coach Pete Carroll said Monday that Smith (concussion) is not expected to play in Thursday's game against the Cardinals, Michael-Shawn Dugar of SeattlePI.com reports.
Smith suffered a concussion in Sunday's loss to the Redskins and was unable to return. Now, with the Seahawks facing a short week of preparation, Carroll does not anticipate the defensive end being fully cleared in just three days. In Smith's likely absence, Dwight Freeney could be called upon to take on a larger role on the defensive line.

Seahawks' Marcus Smith: Avoids injury designation
Smith (ankle) won't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Redskins, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Smith did not practice this week until putting in a full session on Friday, but it was enough to avoid the questionable tag. The 25-year-old saw a similar snap count to new addition Dwight Freeney in Sunday's win over the Texans, and his role is unlikely to change drastically without an injury on the Seahawks' defensive line.

Seahawks' Marcus Smith: Questionable for Sunday
Smith (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Texans, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.
Smith's only practice participation this week came in a limited session Thursday. The 25-year-old's prospects for playing time have taken a hit anyhow due to the addition of veteran Dwight Freeney, but he should still serve as a reserve defensive end when healthy.
