This is from FoxSports' John Czarnecki. Keep in mind he's batting about .000000000000000000002 this season when it comes to his forecast but this is all I've seen so far today.
"there's a good chance of Seattle WR Deion Branch playing"
Have any Seattle homers heard anything about whether he practiced yesterday? I'm shocked the beat writers have given so little coverage to this and Alexander's status (only saw one story about him) after yesterday's practice.

The media is excluded from Saturday's practice - although you would hope someone would have questioned Holmgren after practice.

They still found out that Alexander practiced. They could easily have asked players or assistant coaches if Branch practiced assuming Holmgren wasn't available. You don't have to be at practice to find out practice info if you're a good beat writer.

Is noone concerned with his lack of practice time his lack of timing with hassell and the chance of rain?I can see him suiting up but having limited plays and getting limited looks when in now next week he should be 100% in the gameplan any thoughts
At this point, I'm benching him and just hoping for some limited play Monday, no set back, then 100% next week. Next week is a big game for me, head to head with division rival- so I'm just hoping for no injuries and a full healthy lineup with Branch then.
ps. Saw a Fantasy Report on cable and they said Branch has a good chance of playing, but at best will see limited snaps

I just need Branch to get 100 percent healthy for the playoffs. Right now my team is on auto-pilot and just secured #1 spot for playoffs this weekend but I know I'll need him for the stretch run baby!

It's to the blog written by the the producer of "The Mike Holmgren Show". He confirms what the posters above say that Holmgren said Branch (and Alexander) will not play this week.

here's a second source:
Branch (foot) will not play in Monday night's game against the 49ers, KING-TV Seattle reports.
Spin: Coach Mike Holmgren said he will hold Branch out this week but expects him to play next week against Chicago. The Seahawks will lean on D.J. Hackett and Bobby Engram as their primary receivers.
