Coach Pete Carroll said Lockett (shin) is "doing better," and he expects the wide receiver to play Sunday at Philadelphia, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.

Lockett is in recovery mode from a shin contusion that caused him to miss overtime of the Seahawks' Week 10 win at San Francisco. Subsequent swelling in the region forced a hospital stay, but he was able to return to Seattle last Wednesday. There's no telling how much, if any, practice time he'll get in this week, but Carroll's comments put a positive spin on Lockett's availability.
