Seahawks WR leaves game against Falcons

play

The Seattle Seahawks defeated the Atlanta Falcons in Week 7, but may have lost one of their key offensive players in the process.

During the contest, DK Metcalf suffered a knee injury late in the third quarter. The veteran receiver was carted to the locker room because of the problem.

Here's what you should know about Metcalf's injury and his moving forward status.

DK Metcalf injury update

The Seahawks announced that Metcalf is “questionable” to return for their Week 7 contest against the Atlanta Falcons due to a knee injury.

Metcalf's final snap of the game came with 17 seconds left in the third quarter when he attempted to make a catch down the sideline but was hit hard by Falcons safety Justin Simmons. The veteran winger managed to get to the sideline on his own, but mostly sat on the Seattle medical staff's bench.

Metcalf was eventually seen attempting to run to the sideline, but shook his head to indicate he couldn't. Shortly afterwards he was carted into the locker room with a dejected look.

The Seahawks led by 17 when Metcalf was taken to the locker room with 7:15 to play. Despite his “questionable” label, he never returned to the game.
