Justin Forsett will get the start for the Seahawks Sunday

Julius Jones is sticking in Seattle, but he’s going to have to get used to being a reserve.

Seahawks coach Pete Carroll announced Justin Forsett will start at running back against the 49ers on Sunday. Leon Washington, who also figures to help on returns, is probably next in line. Jones could get a handful of carries on running downs.

Without a true primary back, Carroll figures to split carries among his backs based on the matchup. That’s sure to drive fantasy owners crazy, but it’s the best way to utilize the roster that he has.

We just wonder if the team’s rebuilt offensive line will be able to block for them.
