Related Topics: Seattle Seahawks, Jon Ryan

After having to field a low snap, Seattle Seahawks punter Jon Ryan decided he didn't have time to get his kick off, so he took off and ran with the football.

It didn't turn out well for him—at all.

Ryan did his best to try to pick up the first down on 4th-and-7 from the Seattle 25-yard line, even going as far as attempting to hurdle a pair of Minnesota Vikings defenders. The result: a rough faceplant followed by a bloody nose.

According to the Seahawks, Ryan was ruled questionable to return with a nose injury:

ESPN's John Clayton tweeted there was a "good chance" the Seattle punter would return to the game:

Looks like Jon Ryan has a good chance of coming back.
