Seattle Seahawks inside linebacker Jerome Baker is questionable to return to their Week 2 game against the New England Patriots with a hamstring injury, the team announced.

Baker missed much of training camp with a hamstring ailment and entered Sunday's game with a questionable designation. He was able to play, recording four total tackles and a pass deflection in the first half to help Seattle to a 17-13 halftime lead.

Seattle is already without starting outside linebacker Uchenna Nwosu and was without Derick Hall at the end of the second quarter, who exited with a suspected concussion. Hall returned in the third quarter.

Rookie fourth-round pick Tyrice Knight will likely replace Baker if he is unable to return. Knight already had four tackles in the first half.
