The Facts:
The prognosis for Branch is better this week, HC Mike Holmgren said. He said the training staff is more optimistic about his availability. Branch missed the past two games because of a strained calf. "He couldn't play the game the way he has to play the game," Holmgren said. "He's not the biggest guy in the world, Deion. His quickness and speed must be a part of his game, and no one could tell me he could last, for sure."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Branch is the starting flanker. He and D.J. Hackett have been on the field together for less than three games total this season. If Branch returns, the Seahawks would have the top four receivers they expected when they started the season available for four-receiver sets.
