RENTON, Wash. - Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson said Thursday that his plan is to play through the right pectoral injury he sustained Sunday night, and he admitted for the first time that the knee injury he suffered in Week 3 has affected his play.Wilson said he didnt know exactly when he hurt his pectoral. He was asked if theres any way that the injury will sideline him for Sundays game against the New Orleans Saints.Thats not the plan, Wilson said. You know me. Im going to do everything I can to be ready at the highest level.In overtime last week, Wilson went 7-for-8 for 104 yards. He said he was playing through the injury at that time.For the first time in his career, Wilson was listed as a limited practice participant on Wednesday. He has never missed a start in his NFL career.Asked how the pectoral injury is affecting him, Wilson said, I can definitely throw it if I needed to, hard or whatever. Its just trying to pace it out. Like I said, Im not playing until Sunday so thats the good thing.Meanwhile, Wilson continues to deal with a sprained MCL in his left knee. He has run for just 33 yards on 22 carries this season.I had a relatively serious injury with my knee. They told me I wasnt supposed to play for four weeks, maybe longer, Wilson said. So you just overcome it.Id be lying to you if I said my mobility is a hundred percent. But I feel really good right now.Wilson has suffered three injuries in six games this year. In Week 1, he had a right high ankle sprain.The great thing is my ankle is no longer listed, Wilson said. So thats a great thing. [My pec] is a little sore, but I think it will be fine and get over it and just continue to rehab at the highest level the best that I can. Firmino Jersey Liverpool .

Witnesses called to give evidence on the second day of his trial said the Barcelona forward had little knowledge of the corporate structures that authorities say were created to lower the players tax burden in Spain.They said that, although Messi signed documents, it was his father who was actually responsible for the players businesses off the field.Messi and his father, Jorge Horacio Messi, have been charged with three counts of tax fraud and could be sentenced to nearly two years in prison if found guilty of defrauding Spains tax office of £3.1m.The trial started on Tuesday with Messi and his father Jorge Horacio Messi, who have both denied the allegations, not obliged to attend the court every day, but they will have to testify on Thursday.The intention of Mr. Lionel was to attend the plenary hearing, but he has suffered an injury, said Messis lawyer, Javier Sanchez-Vera, who presented a medical report.The Barcelona forward hurt his back during Argentinas international friendly against Honduras last Friday and when asked by the judge whether Messi would attend Thursdays hearing, the lawyer said he would.The court appearance comes just days before he joins his Argentina team-mates for the Copa America in the United States. Messi in action for Argentina Messi and his father are accused of using a chain of fake companies in Belize and Uruguay to avoid paying taxes on £3.2m of Messis income earned through the sale of his image rights from 2007 to 2009.The two have already paid £3.8m to tthe tax authorities as a corrective measure after they were formally charged in June 2013.ddddddddddddThey are charged with three counts of tax fraud. Spanish prosecutors are seeking a jail sentence of 22-and-a half months for Messi and his father if they are found guilty, plus fines equivalent to the amount that was allegedly defrauded.But any such sentence would likely be suspended as is common in Spain for first offences carrying a sentence of less than two years. Messi is not obliged to attend the court every day but will testify on Thursday Under Spanish law, a defendant is not obliged to attend the full trial if prosecutors seek a jail sentence of less than two years, which means Messi is only likely to attend on Thursday for his testimony.The football star and his defence team have argued that the players father handled his finances without reporting to him, and that the striker was not aware of any wrongdoing. My dad handled the cash, Messi said in September 2013 when he was questioned by a judge investigating the case at a court in Gava, a town on the outskirts of Barcelona where the footballer lives.The players father agreed. He has nothing to do [with these issues], he only plays football, Jorge Horacio Messi said.The income related to Messis image rights that was allegedly hidden includes endorsement deals with Banco Sabadell, Danone, Adidas, Pepsi-Cola, Procter & Gamble and the Kuwait Food Company.
