The Seattle Seahawks linebacker corps should get a healthy K.J. Wright back this week against the Dallas Cowboys.

Wright remained in the league’s five-stage concussion protocol on Sunday as the Rams clobbered the Seahawks 42-7 at CenturyLink Field. The Pro Bowl linebacker sustained a concussion in the third quarter of Seattle’s game against Jacksonville in Week 14 and was unable to be cleared in time for Sunday’s high-stakes game.

Seahawks coach Pete Carroll said Monday morning that Wright has cleared concussion protocol and should be ready to go against Dallas.

“He should be fine,” Carroll said during his weekly appearance on 710 ESPN Seattle. “I think he’s out of the protocol now.”

Wright missed his first game since Week 17 of the 2013 season, breaking a long-standing 61 straight starts. The outside linebacker is Seattle’s second-leading tackler with 94 on the season.

Carroll says players “leaving their feet” was one of the biggest problems in Seattle’s loss to Los Angeles on Sunday. Wright’s veteran leadership should provide the Seahawks defense a big boost against the Cowboys this week, who are also vying for a Wild Card playoff spot.
