RENTON, Wash. -- Seattle Seahawks starting center Max Unger returned to practice Wednesday on a limited basis, but starting cornerback Byron Maxwell and outside linebacker Malcolm Smith did not practice. Seahawks coach Pete Carroll is hopeful Unger, who's been out with a strained foot, will get through the week and be able to play Sunday against the Oakland Raiders. He also hopes Maxwell (calf injury) can return, but it appears Smith may be out with a groin strain he suffered in the Carolina game last weekend. Backup safety Jeron Johnson must go through the mandatory concussion protocol and did not practice Wednesday. Backup defensive tackle Jordan Hill still is not practicing because of an ankle sprain. Left guard James Carpenter was limited in practice because of back spasms. Punt returner Bryan Walters returned to full participation at practice after missing the Carolina game with a concussion. Running back Marshawn Lynch had his usual day of rest Wednesday, but is not injured.
