The Seattle Seahawks will go into their showdown against New Orleans on Monday night short-handed in the secondary after starting cornerback Walter Thurmond was officially suspended Tuesday by the NFL for the team's next four games for violating the league's substance abuse policy. Thurmond will be eligible to return to the active roster on Monday, Dec. 23, before the final game of the regular season, but his absence leaves a hole in a secondary already missing starting cornerback Brandon Browner because of a groin injury. Thurmond's suspension was first reported by NFL.com over the weekend. Thurmond took to Twitter and apologized on Sunday, writing, ''Yes I made a mistake and I have to live with the consequences.
