The Facts:
HC Pete Carroll said Baldwin suffered a hip pointer in the NFC Championship Game, but he believes Baldwin will be OK in time for the Super Bowl against the Denver Broncos on Feb. 2. “He’s banged up a little bit,” Carroll said. “He’ll be a little bit slow on Wednesday [at practice] and this week, but he’ll be OK for the game.”

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Baldwin had one of his best games of the season Sunday in the 23-17 victory over the San Francisco 49ers, catching six passes for 106 yards. He also returned a kickoff 69 yards, which came after he injured his hip in the second half. Baldwin was asked after the game how the hip injury affected him. “Significantly,’’ he said. “I’m going to be pretty hurt [Monday], but it’s the game that we play. You deal with those injuries and pains. It’s nothing new. ..." For what it's worth, Carroll said running back Marshawn Lynch will get some get some rest this week after taking some big hits Sunday when he rushed for 109 yards on 22 carries, including a 40-yard touchdown run.
