They come, they go. And the wide receiver situation for the Seattle Seahawks remains unsettled.

A day after Deion Branch (strained calf) said he was feeling better and might play against the Green Bay Packers on Saturday, teammate D.J. Hackett -- author of six catches for 101 yards and a touchdown against Washington last week -- missed practice with the same right ankle sprain that has bothered him all year.

Commentary: It's not as if Seattle can't survive without Hackett in the lineup -- he's only played in six games. But Green Bay's smaller defensive backs have been vulnerable to big receivers this year (Terrell Owens feasted on them) and Hackett packages a 6-foot-2 frame with good speed.

Fantasy Football Impact: None.
