Thomas Rawls will start for second straight week

With Marshawn Lynch out for at least this week, and perhaps more as he recovers from a hamstring injury, Thomas Rawls will once again be the lead running back for Seattle. Fred Jackson suffered a high ankle sprain against Detroit last week, but the Seahawks are optimistic he will be able to play. (Rob Rang on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact:
Rawls and Jackson are the only two running backs on the Seahawks' roster, with fullback Derrick Coleman as the emergency backup, so Rawls should again see a heavy workload against Cincinnati. High ankle sprains are generally a lingering injury, so if Fred Jackson is hampered, Rawls should be a high volume play the next few weeks.
