That was coach Pete Carroll’s assessment on Monday, 24 hours after Wilson sprained the medial collateral ligament in his left knee while getting yanked down from behind by the back of his shoulder pads in the third quarter of the lopsided win over San Francisco. Carroll said earlier in the day that Wilson has an MCL sprain, of undisclosed degree. “He’s walking around feeling good about it”.
For now, we just have to wait and try to avoid panicking if at all possible. And there’s some discomfort with it, but he doesn’t feel any of that, so that’s not going to be the issue most likely.
Wilson and undrafted rookie Trevone Boykin are the only quarterbacks on Seattle’s active roster, though Jake Heaps is on the practice squad. Check out the Russell Wilson injury video below.
Hyde finished with 103 yards on 21 carries, but 67 of those yards came in the fourth quarter. “So it’s going to be up to everyone to pick up the slack, get things done and get back to where we know we’re supposed to be”.
Inside the Seahawks’ locker room late Sunday, Jay-Z blasted over the sound system as eight television cameras closed in around running back Christine Michael. However, the knee was still giving him trouble so Wilson went back to the sidelines to get it looked at. Since being drafted in 2012, Wilson has played in two Super Bowls, been named to three Pro Bowls and he led the National Football League in passer rating in 2015. The Seahawks were ahead anyway, and they chose to preserve their star quarterback.
“I don’t think it’s severe as it looked”, Wilson told reporters.
“I don’t look at it as a long way from anything”, Kelly said.
“I think there’s, obviously there’s consideration for that”. On Sunday, Graham out-jumped two defenders for a 40-yard catch and caught six passes for 100 yards even and a touchdown.
Seattle quarterback will be out a minimum of 3 weeks with a knee injury. He was 14 of 25 for 119 yards with an interception on a third-down pass that glanced off wide receiver Quinton Patton’s hands.
For Rawls, he’s been battling injuries all season and needs to take the month to ensure that he is fully healthy.
“It’s about stability”, Carroll said.
Said 49ers safety Eric Reid, “It’s a divisional game, so it definitely hurts”. Baldwin caught a 34-yard pass on the second offensive snap, then Michael scored his first career touchdown on the Seahawks’ third play.
Chip Kelly requested the blame for a first-snap snafu of Carlos Hyde lining up in the wrong spot.
“Defensive coordinator Kris Richard was spotlighted as being unhappy with his defense after they gave up their first touchdown of the game”. However, he would defer to Boykin for the remainder of the game with Seattle holding a 30-3 lead. Graham’s 18-yard reception from Wilson came with 7:53 remaining in the first half. The Week 3 halftime measuring stick: they were down 31-7 previous year at Arizona, and 24-3 on Sunday at Seattle.
The 49ers opened with a 28-0 victory over the Los Angeles Rams.
The Seahawks (2-1) have a bye week after visiting the Jets. Tight end Vance McDonald suffered a hip injury in the second quarter and did not return.
Cameron has a lengthy history with concussions, as he had at least three as a member of the Browns.
Quarterback Blaine Gabbert #2 of the San Francisco 49ers passes the ball during the second quarter of the game against the Seattle Seahawks at CenturyLink Field on September 25, 2016 in Seattle, Washington. “We needed this – badly”, Carroll said. Kelly’s University of OR football team beat Carroll once when he was coaching at USC, and Carroll and the Seahawks beat Kelly’s Philadelphia Eagles 24-14 in 2014.
