Mark Anderson came back for a second straight day of practice Thursday after returning to the practice field for the first time in nine weeks Wednesday. It was a good sign concerning his chances of being back in the lineup Sunday against Seattle.

“He was in more (drills) today and made more progress today,” said head coach Chan Gailey after Thursday’s practice. “It’s encouraging for him to be ready for this week.”

Knowing Anderson hasn’t been in a game since Week 5, if he does play it sounds as though the plan would be to ease him back in.

“What you try to do is if you do play him you’re going to limit his plays,” said Gailey. “That’s how you try to handle it. You don’t ever say, ‘Gosh when is it too long? When is it ready?’ You can go back and forth on that. They say he’s ready then I’ve got to go by what they say.”
