The Seahawks’ injury report signals the club doesn’t have any real injury concerns entering Sunday’s game vs. the Broncos.

After practice on Thursday, Seahawks coach Pete Carroll affirmed as much.

“Everybody is fine.” Carroll told Jenny Vrentas of SI.com, who filed the media practice report for the Pro Football Writers of America. “No issues at all. It’s fantastic to have everybody going, knowing that everybody is healthy. Of course they’re excited about that, too. We’re very fortunate in that sense.”

According to Vrentas, Seahawks wideout Percy Harvin “ran quickly and with a spring in his step” in practice. Harvin, whom the Seahawks acquired for a first-round pick in March, is on pace to play just his third game of the 2013 campaign after missing much of the regular season with a hip injury. Harvin also missed the NFC title game with a concussion.

Also, Carroll noted that tailback Marshawn Lynch is good to go after a day off on Wednesday.

“Resting him on Wednesday really helps him get ready for the ball games,” Carroll said.

The Seahawks practiced inside at the Giants’ practice facility for a second straight day. Their final full practice of the week is Friday.
