Unable to practice Thursday
Okonkwo (hamstring) remained sidelined at practice Thursday, Tashan Reed of the Washington Post reports.
Okonkwo appears to be trending toward a second consecutive absence Sunday against the Seahawks, but he still has one more chance to practice Friday before Washington releases its Week 3 injury report. If Okonkwo sits out again, Ben Sinnott and John Bates would be the top tight end targets for Marcus Mariota.
